The 64 percent of voters who watched the debate say Obama did better 49 - 33 percent. Obama gets a 54 - 32 percent favorability in Ohio, with 49 - 40 percent for McCain. Palin's favorability is split 35 - 35 percent, compared to 41 - 22 percent last time. Biden's favorability is 38 - 27 percent, compared to 36 - 22 percent last time. For 59 percent of Ohio voters, the economy is the biggest issue, and post-debate voters trust Obama more than McCain 50 - 39 percent to handle this issue, compared to 49 - 39 percent pre-debate. Voters trust McCain more, 53 - 38 percent to handle foreign policy, compared to 51 - 39 percent pre-debate. After the debate, voters say 50 - 23 percent that Obama's efforts on the economic crisis have been helpful more than harmful, compared to 43 - 33 percent for McCain. By a 48 - 29 percent margin, Ohio voters oppose the $700 billion economic rescue plan. "It's easy to see why Sen. McCain is doing so poorly. On September 11, his favorable/unfavorable ratio among Ohio voters was 53 - 34 percent. Now it's just 49 - 40 percent, dropping from a 19-point plus to nine points in just 20 days, while Sen. Obama's ratings have remained as positive as they were. And the economy is the reason. Obama's five-point edge as the best candidate to handle the economy - which is by far the most important issue to voters, especially in economically distressed Ohio - has doubled," Brown said.
