Overall fast reaction? Lethargic and rote. The short versions:
McCain: I have a history (but don’t look at it too closely).
Obama: I have ideas (but don’t count on them being implemented).
What stood out (but likely will be glossed over elsewhere) was McCain’s direct admission and implicit charge (more than once) that the woebegone G. Walker administration has engaged in the crime of torture. Not ‘allegedly’ but unequivocally.
What else stood out were several instances of repeated reference to things done or things said by others which simply and provably are not so, then using those fabrications as springboards for proposed policy.
