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.

And Obama wants us to reduce our energy consumption so that Iran (and Russia) don’t get rich off of us. What about drilling more here so the price of oil goes down everywhere? Won’t that have the same effect AND allow us our same standard of living?

Nobody knows. He isn’t answering this question either. Amazing.

My God he completely screwed up the last question.

"What don't you know and how will you learn it"

Complete babbling for 2 minutes with no direction and about as attentive as a meth weasel on a triple espresso.

McCain is giving a straight, heartfelt answer to the inane question.

Anyone who believes the polls of the Washington Post, CNN, etc are not the brightest bulbs in the box, the sharpest tools in the shed, a few fries short of a happy meal, and their elevator doesn’t go all the way to the top floor.

They are no better than the DUmmies who believed the exit polling.

LOL, Obama answering the question “What don’t you know”.. and he basically repeats his entire platform.. Idiot.. He tried to use the question to step off to his platform and for those who are paying attention, he came across as an idiot..

McCain is handling that one much better..

BTW, University costs have gone up over 400% since 1985.
Did we have hearings yet like oil and healthcare?

McCain needs to say "I don't know what the _____ Obama is talking about. Guess, I'll have to ask Michelle."

Off topic, but a lib acquaintance of mine told me that 0bama is a reasonable person who would surround himself with good people such as Chuck Hagel.
