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 hitting 0bama on gov’t mandates and fines on businesses or families re: health insurance. Very important points. I hope they sink in.

McCain: Health care is a responsibility...not a privilege or a right.

Well, at least he is closer to being correct than Hussein.

Mc

Most states can’t/won’t allow across-state-lines insurance because insurance is regulated by state agencies.

It would become a nightmare.

Yeh, it sounds good, it will require forethought (something Washington lacks).

McCain’s not doing himself any favors taking climate change so seriously.

Psst just thought I'd warn you, there are a few here who think the thread is a trollfest. Just FYI.

This was the opportunity to take the gloves off and attack Obama. McCain is not attacking Obama and keeps going on with platitudes. zzzz....

The guys on local talk had quite a go around about this one am. They alleged that it must be a form of Democrat id. Look at our Aunt Jennie’s GRAND mole.

“Who are these debates for? Who is undecided at this point? If they are that ill informed and or disinterested do we really believe that they are watching tonight?”

Hey you. Get outta my head.

Now I’m off, like the propagandizing LeftMedia to worship at the font of the mythical moderate/undecided/independent
voter.
