This morning, we asked “Morning Express” viewers to write their own headlines describing Tuesday night’s townhall-style Presidential debates.
Once again, you gave us plenty of fodder for laughs, and were insightful too. Go ahead, have a look.

McCain vs. Obama at town hall: What’s your headline?
We’re always writing headlines, but we learned from the Vice Presidential debate you the viewers do a far better job than we do.
Today, we want your headlines on the town hall presidential debate. Send us one or two, or five for that matter and we’ll share as many of them as we put them to print on “The Morning Express.”
To get us going, I thought I’d grab several headlines from before the debate instead of after. Most online publications seemed to focus on McCain more than Obama:
“McCain ready for debate battle”: USA Today
David Jackson talks about predebate attacks and how an aggressive tactic may or may not work.
“I don’t expect a rock-’em-sock-’em night”: National Review
Byron York argues that McCain doesn’t need a homerun necessarily but to stay steady in the final weeks of the race.
Blogger Connie called it for Obama.
“McCain’s last chance, or a chance to shine?”: MSNBC
Howard Fineman asks if McCain can turn the campaign around, and points to how McCain has been down for the count before and come back.
So were theses authors and publications right? Was it more about McCain than Obama? Did they hit the issues you care about given the diving world stock markets, and troubled economies, domestic and international. You finish this out for us given what you’ve seen and read since last night’s debate.
And all said, did the debate change your mind? Plus regardless of your affiliation, who do you think will win?
Look forward to your headlines!

Wal-Mart Launches $10 Toys, Stores Vow ‘This ‘R’ War’
Toy retailers have commenced a fierce price war as a particularly tough holiday season bears down upon them, the Wall Street Journal reports. Wal-Mart cut prices to $10 on key toys including Barbie and Hot Wheels last week, a move quickly mirrored by rivals KB Toys and Target. Toys ‘R’ Us, meanwhile, plans to focus on choice instead of cheapness.
‘Preggers Pact’ School Goes on the Pill
A Massachusetts high school where 17 teens got pregnant last year presumably as part of a “pregnancy pact” has decided to distribute birth control pills and condoms to students, the Boston Globe reports. A school official said birth control would only be available with parental consent, adding that he hoped the school could now move on following national news reports of the pregnancy pact, allegedly made by teens who wanted to raise their babies together.
