I missed it.  Who won?

[moderating self]
At the masonic lodge we're instructed not to talk politics because of our heartfelt desire for peace and harmony among brothers.  I don't want to talk politics here for like reason.

from the forum guidelines...

The Topics of Politics and Religion
Due to the sensitive nature of the subject matter, the increased potential for conversations to become inflamed, and in order to maintain a family friendly atmosphere we would like to ask all visitors to RenaissanceFestival.com to refrain from discussing the topics of modern politics and religions of any type.  We understand that this may be a controversial request, however, we feel that this is necessary in order to ensure the best possible experience for the majority of our visitors.  Please be advised that posts violating this guideline will be immediately deleted, and members who repeatedly post such subject matter will be subject to account suspension, or deletion at the Forum Administrators discretion.

Those of us that didn't watch it!    

[Capt Gabriela Fullpepper]

Did anyone really win it?

I made some great observations during it, does that count. McCain NEVER looked at the camera to address the people, nor did he ever look at Obama and address him at any time. He always looked at Jim Lehrer.

Obama looked at Jim, at Mcain and the camera when speak and I got the feeling he was really addressing the people and not just the host. I thought it rude of Mcain to never once look at Obama to address abything Obama said about him.

So did qnyone really win? My vote hasn't changed from it, but then again it was made up a long time ago

indeed. obama kept referring to mccain by his first name. at some point, the moderator was like TALK TO HIM, HE'S STANDING RIGHT THERE. guess it made it a little more personal.

and if you want to know who won, check the polls. a consensus of sorts has been reached, i think.

[Baron Doune]

always used worms myself...please to note John's post.

(I know...sucking up)

[Morgan Dreadlocke]

Rubber crawdads wi' a treble hook here. Worms go all mushy over 100 degrees.

[Noble Dreg]

Using real crawdad's for bait is a sin...I would rather eat a mess of creole crawdad's with a good brew than any fish I'd catch in a pond!  Ettouffee, my fav southern dish.

How come they don't sell crawdad's in Minnesota?

[Baron Doune]

Fished with crawdads many, many a time.  Have even tied them for fly fishing bass.

Found a place a while back on Lake Street Dreg Stella's Fish Cafe

[Morgan Dreadlocke]

Crawdads be tasty but SANDY BEACHES ye can starve ta death eatin 'dads. Ain't enough calories in 'em ta be worth shuckin' 'em out
