The Debate - 140 Characters at a Time

Here's my tweet-coverage of last night's debate. Contrasting it against the first debate based on pure Twitter volume, I either paid a lot less attention or there were fewer sound bytes this time around.

Agree with the pundits. McCain took the first half hour. Then his odd mannerisms and negative attacks overshadowed it. 10:12 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

Methinks McCain overdid the post-game handshake there. 9:32 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

Finally a "my friends" drop. 9:28 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

Accountability and Transparency. Who needs them more -- politics or marketing? 9:26 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

Obama almost said Maverick activity but caught himself and went with Cavalier. Kick save and a beauty. 9:16 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

McCain seems to be winning the CNN sentiment-o-meter. 9:11 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

@schmogel, I say, I say that's cockammamie! 9:08 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry in reply to schmogel

Nice. McCain just said bresh of freth air. 9:05 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

I like the word repudiate. Might even prompt me to get http://goodwordbadword.com/ going. 8:34 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry

This sentiment meter on CNN is too distracting 8:22 PM Oct 15th from TwitterBerry
