Hell maybe we cynics estimated the stupidity of the American people.
Part of my problem is that after the past several years I've lost all faith in my ability to gauge anything about "the American people" even at the broadest level.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yay! It's over!

One commentator said McCain had no "senior moments." Gee, that's setting a high bar. Yay, McCain didn't soil himself!
Also, MSNBC said McCain won.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
One of the talking heads hit a point I'd noticed: McCain was trying to paint Obama as a risky choice, but Obama didn't give him any evidence for it. Obama looked less experienced, maybe, but still a safe enough choice.

Huh. The poll on the MSNBC site has Obama beating McCain in the debate, 74.5% to 19.5%.
I like Obama and I thought he held his own nicely in what should have been his weaker debate area, but I didn't think he did that well.
