		<description><![CDATA[Tonight was the fourth and final debate of this electoral season (third between the presidential contenders), and McCain went into it a very long way from victory. In a campaign where those fond of sports metaphors have accused him of throwing too many &#8220;hail Mary&#8221; passes already, tonight was his last chance.

		<description><![CDATA[Tonight&#8217;s second presidential debate is being billed as a &#8220;town hall&#8221; format. But here are the rules:
Tuesday&#8217;s match-up at Belmont University in Nashville, Tenn., will be moderated by NBC&#8217;s Tom Brokaw, with the questions to be culled from a group of 100 to 150 uncommitted likely voters in the audience and another one-third to come [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, she absolutely had what it takes to win&#8230; if this had been an eighth-grade student council debate. Going up against a grown-up, though, Sarah Palin was mismatched.

		<description><![CDATA[So, tonight, an estimated sixty million people watched John McCain turn in a debate performance that probably left his campaign wishing he&#8217;s stuck to his promise to stay away, and that will surely cost him a few more points in the polls.
