"Finally!" Richard A. Viguerie, Chairman of ConservativeHQ.com, said. "Senator McCain finally realized that he can win only if he nationalizes the election, if he makes it a fight between conservative and liberal ideology. And that's what he did tonight.

"Where did this John McCain come from? This was certainly a different John McCain from the fellow we saw in the two previous debates. "From the opening minutes, he had Senator Obama off-balance, and Obama stayed off-balance throughout the debate. Obama looked lost, as if he were desperate to lock onto a TelePrompTer." Viguerie, who has been a sharp critic of Senator McCain in the past, said, "Senator McCain showed that he has earned the complete support and total commitment for the next 20 days of every conservative in America." NOTE TO EDITORS: Richard A. Viguerie pioneered political direct mail and has been called "one of the creators of the modern conservative movement" (The Nation magazine), one of the "conservatives of the century" (The Washington Times), and one of 2008's "top 25 influencers" among Republicans (NewsMax magazine). His latest book is Conservatives Betrayed: How George W. Bush and Other Big-Government Republicans Hijacked the Conservative Cause (Bonus Books).
