Opinions on the debates
In both the presidential and the vice presidential debates all the candidates made alot of great points. In the presidential debates i believe that McCain answered the questions more directly showing accuracy but Obama answered alot more intelligently and with more thought so he shwowed the thinking skill of metacognition, so thats why i believe he won that debate. On the other hand in the vice-presidential debate both candidates did a great job of thinking flexibly and also doing a great job with thinking and communicating with clarity and percision. I still belive Biden won but i think because the way that Governor Palin was such an under-dog she came out with a moral victory and came out looking much smarter and quicker than others suspected she would. She proved that she is a legitement pick for vice-president of the United States.
Facts of the VP

2. Obama voted to increase taxes to middle class
3. Obama didn’t vote for a tax cut 94 times
