As Flippy said, that was the question. "Prioritize these." McCain did not. Obama did. The concept that we can do everything at once because "we're Americans, we can do anything, that's what we do in America, etc" was totally ridiculous.....and again, not an answer to the question.
That said, I was disappointed that Obama stepped on the format so much. I think he did it about twice as much as McCain did. At least, when he demanded to respond, it was for a good response....but it still irked me. Answer the questions, show respect for the moderator, the format, and your opponent.
