I watched this and I thought both did quite well, but McCain was greatly improved. I thought he won the debate hands down, but it wasn't a blow out by any means.
Getting the initial reaction of audiences on the news channels, though, and it seems the opposite with the majority believing Obama won. To each their own I guess*. In any case, I don't think anything came out that was a game changer. If McCain wants to win, he'll need a Willy Horton type bombshell, and I don't think Will Ayers is going to be it.
*EDIT: CNN's audience actually leaned towards McCain, so maybe I wasn't as biased in my analysis as I originally thought.
