PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE #2 LIVE THREAD
10/07/08

Posted on 10/07/2008 2:01:24 PM PDT by TornadoAlley3

While the two presidential candidates, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama, prepare for their second debate on Oct. 7 at Belmont University in Nashville, Tom Brokaw gets to sift through questions submitted by you. In addition to queries from a group randomly selected by the Gallup organization, Brokaw will be fielding questions submitted online at mydebates.org, the site created by the Commission on Presidential Debates and Myspace. The focus of the town hall-style debate will be domestic and foreign policy, Brokaw's specialties.

McCain translation on if we can fix the economy: We can’t fix the economy with the fox (in Obama clothing) guarding the henhouse.

Well, neither of these cats has run a business....you dont borrow money from the bank to make payroll....you have a credit line if you dont have enough cash reserves...

Credit lines are now running 10% interest if you have stellar credit, and higher if you dont. We havent carried one for 10 years, thankfully.

Obama on his stool, looks like Sammy Davis at the Sands.

ROFLMAO especially because I thought the same thing!

Seems like Obama is getting more than two minutes to answer his question.

I think it's just all the rambling that makes it seem long.

"McCain is looking stiff too. I know it’s war injuries, but it still could hurt him."

He reminds me of Ed Sullivan a bit. He can't help it.

Obama is throwing out lie after lie about what caused this financial crisis -- but for people who don't know the difference (and there are many), he's looking and sounding better than McCain. Seems more confident and controlled in his answers. Come on, McCain, focus and hit him hard!
