"Law abiding citizens should have a right to bear arms," he said.I disagree: Law abiding citizens should CONTINUE to have a right to bear arms.

I brilliant correction....
To: Jim Robinson
No energy at all from Obama.
Keyes had the better arguments....the better logic too. However, that will no doubt be lost on the majority of dems.

Give me a break.
As if Keyes didn't mean that also.

Of course, I never said he didn't.
To: Jim Robinson
Thanks JR for the post. I am always interested in this race. Go Keyes!

When asked about how faith played into his life, Obama said it plays a role in his decisions, but he does not want to impose it on the state. "I'm not running to be the minister of Illinois," Obama said. "I'm running to be the senator of Illinois."
Classic straw argument.

"Correction" implies Keyes was wrong in the first place.
When it comes down to it, both statements mean the same thing.

I watched it on C-Span last night. I was so proud of Alan Keyes . . . and someone told him to smile more. He was GREAT!!!!!!!!!! Obama looks anorexic/sickly.
To: Saundra Duffy
His smile blasts me out of my seat. In a good way, of course. :-)

I thought it was a great correction to the statement. Still do.
To: anniegetyourgun
Okay. I suppose there are better things to argue over. :-)

Keyes is awesome. He needs to take off the kid gloves though. Seemed like he was holding back.

I haven't followed this race too closely. Does Keyes have a chance? The last I heard he was trailing.
To: VA_Gentleman
The debates will help Keyes a bit with the polls, make things a bit closer but he probably won't get enough poll swing in the next ten days to make a difference.
I'll bet the "13 million black babies aborted" statement was an eye opener to some blacks at least...though sadly again, not enough to make a difference!

He was brilliant. And he mangaged to do so in a measured and modulated way that would again appeal to many voters who have only heard the lie that he is a "madman for God".
Obama looked like a man who had received secret and very bad polling data.

He looks a lot better when he flashes his 'pearlies.' He only did it once. All his other smiles were suppressed. When he flashes his teeth, it's another way of saying, "Top THAT, sucka!"

Thank you for the synopsis of the Obama-Keyes debate. No more Comcast for me, but I did see the first debate where
Mr. Keyes waxed brilliantly on all subjects and Obama weakly reiterated everything Keyes had said. Anyone
with any grey matter watching that debate should champion Alan Keyes. He's head and shoulders above Obama.
Sorry I missed the second debate but I'll say a little prayer that his time has come.
