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.

I think McCain is talking straight to the “American voters” - ignoring and minimalizing Obama. Obama is going to come off as redundant. “Tax the rich, help the middle-class, Bush was bad...”

Jump shark moment you are correct. He can’t compete with Obama on this ground. Obama will promise more.

I turned it off after the “failed economic policies” comment as well! What Obama isn’t saying? He believes that it is CAPITALISM that is the “failed policy”, and wants people to continue to struggle - until the government steps in COMPLETELY and creates a new SOCIALIST(Marxist/Communist) world order.

My mute button may be worn out tonight — I am not listening to that mealy mouth Obama who cannot tell the truth if it hit him the face. All he does is Lie!

Did you see McCain gesture toward Obama when he said “cronyism?” LOL

I can’t watch.

It’s like a slow motion train wreck.

Two people I can’t stand, bloviating lies.

Or in McCain’s case, he doesn’t have a clue at times and makes it up.
