Wall Street hijacked the first presidential debate Friday night between Democratic Sen. Barack Obama and Republican Sen. John McCain, who clashed over tax cuts, congressional spending and President Bush's proposed $700 billion bank bailout in a forum that was supposed to be about foreign policy.

The candidates skirmished over the war in Iraq, with McCain sticking to his support for Bushs troop surge last year and Obama repeating that he opposed the U.S. invasion all along. But the collapse of major financial institutions this month put foreign affairs — the stated topic of the first debate — firmly in the background as the men faced off at the University of Mississippi in Oxford.

Obama sought to tie McCain to the bank crisis, calling it a final verdict on eight years of failed economic policies promoted by George Bush, supported by Senator McCain.

  • Big difference ...

    Big difference between culture and way of life. Beside the heart of the problem is one's own feeling of guilt. No reason to get offensive if somethimg is so far from being true!!! Right?

  • Russia is already a ...

    Russia is already a wealthy country, If they wanted the pipeline, they would have taken it.
    But they never went near it. They called for UN intervention before they went into Georgia.
    Georgia Bombed S. Ossetia ( their own people, Russian citizens) This is by USA definition called ethnic cleansing. Russia stopped the violence, quickly and efficiently.
    While the USA goes to fight, the Eastern countries are building wealth.
    USA is bankrupt. USA National interests in the M.East = private companies.

  • According to the ...

    According to the census bureau 74% of the population is white including white Hispanics, maybe that would explain the absence of blacks... Ignorance is not lost... Obama would make a great Oprah, he should consder. I believe that people will see through this Obama joke and vote McCain. Obamas lack of experince and Afro-Indian roots is not Americas hope it's American worst nightmare.......

    McCain is 100% right when it comes to Russia, people get an education you don't understand that history repeats itself, Russia wants to terrorize Europe with it's Petro dependency countries like Poland import more 70% of it's oil from Russia. Georgia was another source but after Russias military intervention that was cut off. Oboma wil be a puppet for Russia, we need a firm hand agaianst Russia. Today it's Georgia what's next..... McCain stands firm Obama sways when the wind blows.

  • Actually if you ...

    Actually if you knew anything about this subject you would know that Bush loved Putin until the recent Georgia outbreak and if you knew anything about Putin which you dont and I do because I lived in Russia for 12 years you would understand that the reforms he made in Russia are very similar to the days when the Communists were in power there. I can tell you hundreds of stories about how Putin was responsible for the deaths of 20 Russian journalists who investigated what Putin was doing.

  • Listen to what ...

    Listen to what McCain just said 'I looked into Putin eyes and I saw a K-G-B', it's all rough talk with him, the sort of talk that causes division and communication breakdown between nations. He's a lot like Bush.
