Last Presidential Debate Party

Thanks again for WNYMedia for hosting the third presidential debate party at Cole's on Elmwood Avenue; it was another very good turnout, and Val and I made it there just as the debate started, having had a previous engagement beforehand.
Again, I doubt anyone who suppported either Democratic candiate Senator Barack Obama or Republican Senator John McCain were convinced to change his or her vote, but some undecided people may have received the information they needed to make their decision.
Not surprisingly, McCain attempted to distort the William Ayers and ACORN situations to his advantage, instead of conentrating on his weak, misguided policies, and I believe that Obama neutralized both efforts. McCain's virtual derision at the fact that some women who unfortunately had to, upon medical consultation, go through a late-term abortion did so based on health reasons was insulting but in the end a strong indication of where McCain stands on the issue as well as other women's issues.
Kiudos to Chris Smith and Marc Odien for showing the Buffalo Sabres defeat the New York Rangers, 3-1, on a second television in the third floor debate area before and during the debate, sound off during the debate.
