Although the first presidential debate doesn't take place until 9 pm ET tonight, an ad, which ran on the Wall Street Journal this morning, declared prematurely that Senator John McCain is the winner of tonight's debate.
"McCain Wins Debate!" reads the ad which features a headshot of a smiling McCain with an American flag in the background. (View the ad on the left)
Another ad spotted by an astute reader featured a quote from McCain campaign manager Rick Davis declaring: "McCain won the debate-- hands down.
The debate will be held at 9:00 pm EST in Oxford, Miss., the University of Mississippi.
The subject of tonight's debate will be foreign policy, but questions about the economy are expected to intervene. The moderator will be Jim Lehrer of PBS.
McCain decided to meet Democrat Barack Obama for the debate, reversing his decision two days ago to suspend his campaign while lawmakers negotiated a proposed $700 billion bailout of U.S. financial markets.
