Debate Thread

Posted on 09/26/2008 6:08:58 PM PDT by sociallyunacceptable

How do you think the candidates will do? Obama has been away at Debate Camp all week practicing with a high powered attorney, so I don't think that he will bomb.

McC talking about energy now. Sounds good. But I wish he would look at the camera more as if he were speaking directly to the people but not Lehrer.

Before long I guess they will finally get to actual foreign affairs issues. Hopefully McCain will do better there.

Mccain needs to explain to Obama that people understand not spending what we don’t have. They don’t understand spending more and more and more and more.

Barry wants to add more funding to "early childhood education".

That's his way of offering the minorities free baby sitting.

700,000 Nuclear plant jobs!

Sounds good to me!

I’ve always been interested in nuclear power. It is a very interesting industry - and requires a lot of high tech.

I’m in high tech, and we really would like to contribute, as employees, to the nuclear energy business.

Energy business. USA can be the leader.

Go McCain!

Yes, I feel much better about Palin in a debate than McCain.

She's a great cook.

And she wasn't that bad when I met her.

You were not wrong. However, apparently, you seem to still think that PBS' front-man was somehow, sometime, ever going to conduct an honest 'debate' (the correct word for this mess is a 'forum', in rhetoric, btw).

The only questions ever about Lehrer hosting this event (to choose a neutral term) were: A) how quickly would he betray his bias toward Osamabama, B) how quickly he would lose his alleged evenhandedness, and C) when he would choose to break the STATED format and STATED subject matter constraints.

It's just half an hour into this event, and he's done all three long since.

Obama is a rambling fool .... he has replaced his ummming so he can buy time to think for rambling nonsense.

McCain is sharp as a tack.

Obama can’t shake his socialist roots.... hatchet? Frickn’ fool.

Attack McCain attack.... Mac on the attack.
