    It was such a clear win that Fox News can't deny it.

    Fox News is all about making money. They see the pendulum swinging away from the far Right. Fox realizes they need to maintain market share, by serving a more moderate audience. Remember how soft O'Reilly was on the Hillary and Barack interviews ? I'm sure that was a calculated move to earn viewers.

    Because the Right Wing-nuts really want Obama to win.

    Reasoning:

    Because they know that this economy is headed for the toilet within six months and they want the Democrats to be in the House, Senate and the White house so when Bush' policies bankrupt the nation they can tell the country that it was Democrats in power when it all fell apart and thus leading to a total Republican takeover of all branches of government in 2012.

    Because even Fix News cannot distort the obvious fact that Obama won the debate. Yes, it is a surprise, but there are times when you cannot refute something no matter how bad you would like to. This is one of those times. I'm sure they did not like posting the article. They must have a sour taste in their mouth right now.

    Wait wait wait...all last night and early this morning (I had a bout of insomnia), people were saying that Fox News said that McCain won the debate, but everytime I went to the website, I didn't see anything so I took them at their word.

    Now you come along and debunk this myth? How dare you!!

    LOL...they finally got one right.

    OMG I didn't just read someone say that FOX News is now a Liberal Media did I?? This is getting so funny.. Are the die hard McCain supporters that ignorant?? I can't believe i just read that! That just goes to prove how ignorant some of his supporters are.. Fox News is about as far from being Liberal as it gets..

    Because most viewers do think that Obama won the debate. FOX may not like the facts, but the facts are the facts.

    Because it is their job to report fair and impartial news, which they are doing for a change. I know you are a member of the dominate race for you to be surprise that a national news station is taking with Senator Obama. Whats up with that......oh yeah, I forgot that's not suppose to happen.

    Why not? Aren't they supposed to be "fair and balanced." Hee Hee. I can't even write that with a straight face. He did win the debate. OBAMA 08.
