CLEAN SWEEP: POLLS SAY OBAMA SOUNDLY BEATS MCCAIN IN THIRD STRAIGHT HEAD-TO-HEAD DEBATE



You know you're in trouble if you're Republican and even a Fox News poll shows you lost a debate to a Democratic candidate. You read that sentence right. By the count of 67 to 33 percent, a Fox News poll scored the debate for Obama. A CBS poll scored the debate 58 to 31 percent for Obama. CNN analyst David Gergen, who has been an adviser to several previous presidents had the line of the night. Anchor Anderson Cooper asked Gergen what he would strategy he would use the morning after if he were John McCain's campaign manager to help him win. "Hell if I know," Gergen said.
Yes, McCain went on the offensive and in the process, based on the polls and focus groups, offended most viewers--especially when he brought up Bill Ayers and ACORN. Obama, meanwhile, was again the pitcture of calm and clearly articulated his vision on the economy, taxes, health care and abortion.
And does ANYONE really give a (tastefully fill in the blank) about Joe the Plumber?
The following is CNN's rundown, with even more promising numbers for Obama.
