PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE #2 LIVE THREAD

10/07/08

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.

HA! CNN doesn’t have a poll on its site. They KNOW the O lost big-time. He’s fool!

[LA Woman3]

In this era of reality tv....I suggest the candidates be hooked up to a lie detector!

[Recovering_Democrat]

BROKENJAW, LIKE MOST "JOURNALISTS" CAN'T DO SQUAT WITHOUT A TELEPROMPTER!

Bull! Obama stumbled and bumbled the whole night. He came off as a boring elitist.

[Reily]

To all

Remember this debate is not aimed at us.
It’s aimed at the undecided.

According to CNN, most women would rather have sex with obama than change a tire in the rain.

Put me down for changing the tire, in the rain, on a Houston freeway, near the Southwest side of town (that's the bad side, or one of the bad sides)

Cameras stuck on the O! MSM bias in play!

[just me]

It wasn't McCain it was the questions...

Obama just rambles on about nothing

[silverleaf]

born in a log cabin......”

Or a mud hut clinic.....maybe a passenger class seat on an airplane....

Ohhhh, bad juju will find you, sir :-)

[GatorGirl]

I have FOX on too and the split screen shows only Hussein talking to the audience. Did McCain already leave?

[Tonytitan]

And now for comic relief!

[Right Ahead]

Does Obama ever answer a question?????

[Right Ahead]

I thought McCain did good - but not great. He really needed to hit this one out of the park.

[unspun]

I think McCain won, but I don’t think he got the game changer he needs. He still has a chance to take 0bama down at Hofstra. Plus, the Ayers, Rezko, Wright ads that will come will hopefully wake up enough Americans so that they will realize how reckless it would be to vote for 0bama.

He stabilized and assured. And I think you're right about the frightening prospect America will consider about Obama.

[Shqipo]

>>>I disagree—in a Town Hall format, it simply would not be appropriate to go so far off topic. I think in the next debate he will.<<<
—As much as I wanted McCain of yesterday's rally to show up tonight, I agree that it would have fell flat in this forum. Next week, however, he better let the fur fly.

[NOBAMA in 08]

John McCain was Fantastic! and gets a TKO over Obambi!
Obambi makes John Kerry look great!

[valkyry1]

Well now I hope we see Sarah unleashed!

[floriduh voter]

I didn’t see but the last fifteen minutes. I felt like I was watching a a funeral service when I tuned in. The format didn’t work imo cuz the setting seemed so sterile. Were there any American flags anywhere????? What a drab affair.
