How much debt would we be in if either Obama or McCain came into office?

Some economists say we’d be in debt of TRILLIONS of dollars.
Lol, sorry, I didn’t know we were in debt of trillions of dollars already. My teacher said it like Obama and McCain would kill our country if they came into office. I’m guessing I heard it wrong and he meant to say trillions more?
Wait, yes I’m correct, judging from Michael’s answer, it would be somewhat correct to say we’d be TRILLIONS of dollars in debt.

My teacher said 30 trillion dollars for Obama and 50 trillion dollars for McCain. 7 trillion is way less than 30 trillion isn’t it?
