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.
Wow. CNN’s Soladad just asked her focus group who they would vote for right now. 14 said McCain. 11 said Obama. They can’t believe it after all the dial testing said they liked what Obama said more. And they said they trusted Obama more on the economy.

Could it be that Obama is too pretty, too crafted indicating a celebrity that is sly and has something to hide? McCain is not pretty in fact he has a broken body due to torture. Maybe McCain is coming across as not pretty, but worn and yet, transparent. His tests wounded him and even broke him, but he does love his country and is a patriot who has nothing to hide.
‘Is that what American’s have come to to elect a president? Smooth? Clinton came off as smooth, look how well that turned out.’
exactly. you’d think that Americans would have learned after Clinton.
lol now I remember.

Discretion I'm concerned will be liberally applied.
Obama commited one of the greatest modern political sins: he was boring.
Where is the touted Obama Superstar?
I don’t think McCain so much bombed and got walked over by Obama and a moderator who refused to reign him in....
Honey, that’s the reason I have been soooooo encouraged.
I believe this is going to be a blowout!!!
They are 18 million strong! Men and women.
Pro-abortion and pro-homosexual, but voting Republican as big as can be!
It just goes to show you what can happen when Country is put first.
Praise the Lord!
These folks know zero is a muslim and they’ve posted all the same videos we have here. They are protesting at his campaign stops too.
They are also giving money to McCain.
So, as far as I’m concerned....they’re voting with the heart and pocketbook of a patriot!
Come on and let’s go vote!!! ;-)))
Where to? Back up to Canada? (I'm from Seattle and Vancouver is nice!!!); or to Australia or New Zealand?
I'm weighing choices too. At 72 I don't like the idea of moving, but Seattle is almost intolerably liberal now. Under Obama....I can't imagine.
thank you
It needs to be articulated.
Socialism is a failure. It Taxes the productive and rewards the weak. It removes incentive to excel.
It ensures lackluster performance and failure
Well I am not ready to give up yet!
“”‘Is that what American’s have come to to elect a president? Smooth? Clinton came off as smooth, look how well that turned out.’

Slick and pretty are two dangerous attributes. I’d rather have old ansd wise. Most cultures respect the elderly as wise keepers of knowledge and tradition. Americans look for the pretty face and youth.
That is probably true, but there’s a world of difference between encouraging banks to improve the terms and having the government outright buy up and rewrite ‘affordable’ mortgages for everyone!
Look around. Our entire society is weak. I think they may like what the O is offering.
Ya gotta admit he was BORING
Greta Van Sustern has brought it up with her Politico and following guest. Apparently, this is a new proposed program, but McCain has proposed it before back in April.
I’m no fan of Clooney’s politics, but he redefines the word “handsome” beyond belief. Are you KIDDING ME that you think Obama is handsome or appealing to a woman? Gross!!!!!!!!! His ears are huge and his head/face are all disproportional! Even Michelle talks about him being “stinky in the morning”!!!
Yuck!!
