The FED helped lead a coordinated interest rate cut for the world's central banks. Read this to learn more.



Not suprisingly the Drudge Report says McCain won last night and the Huffington Post says Obama won.

The Wall Street Journal Poll puts Obama on the top.

CNN's poll says 54 % of people thought Obama performed better and only 30 % said McCain did better.

"A majority said Obama seemed to be the stronger leader during the debate, 54 percent to 43 percent, and by a more than two to one margin -- 65 percent to 28 percent -- viewers thought Obama was more likable during the debate." - CNN article

Roger Simon of POLITICO wrote an article titled "McCain loses by not winning," which sums up about what most pundits were saying last night. His campaign so far has consisted of constantly re-energizing- after the last two weeks McCain needed that, but most agree he did not get it last night. He might have done well, did he do well enough?


Simon writes:

"McCain unveiled, without any details, a new plan for the government to buy up mortgages that people can no longer afford to pay. But mostly they went over old ground, dragging each other up and down the canvas, like two pugilists who knew each other’s fighting style. No heads snapped back, however, no eyes puffed up, and no mouths got all that bloodied."

I couldn't say it any better myself...
