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.

What’s the Fox Panel saying - I’m not even going to bother watching the TV at this point.

The first question and both their responses set the tone for the whole evening.. Hardly riveting.. I stopped watching at 10pm to go walk the dog. What a week so far, eh? And it's only Tuesday..

Oh I’m speculating. Wouldn’t be surprising though since there were Dem plants all over the Luntz group in 2004.

I think it was close - Obama started stronger but McCain ended stronger. McCain missed some good opportunities. I wonder how the DUmmies or KOSsacks are reacting to the debate? Are they thinking it was pretty much a draw or are they discouraged or happy?

Why does FOX damage its brand by bringing this bafoon on with his Obama plants. This is a sham and Fox is deteriorating into garbage.

PMSNBC's "non-biased" focus group goes 60% to Osama and 40% to McCain.

In other words, McCain won in the general population.

and that Ayers helped plan a robbery that killed 2 Nyack New York Cops!
Quite a country we now live in we have a presidential candiate that's buds with a cop killer.

Oh yes and if I remember correctly one of the cops was black!

I really thought McCain did well tonight. the questions and format sucked, but he did okay with what he had to wrok with. Obama was once again a BS windbag.

I was feeling fine until they interviewed the ‘undecided’ group and they all thought Obama ‘touched’ them more and answered the questions better. I almost burst into tears. Our country is seriously gone. Just gone.
