This was NOT a town hall debate. Brokaw just picked from the 100’s of questions whatever he wanted to ask. He definitely was trying to ask questions to help out Obama.

What a farce. Just randomly pick people and let them ask their questions.

Fred Barnes was so right. There was time to talk about guns, immigration, abortion, etc. That would have made it much more interesting. This sounded like a rehash of the first debate. Sadly McCain did nothing to change the game I think. If those polls are right then he will remain behind.

He picked questions in areas he thought bho would shine and mop the floor with McCain. Like Fred Barnes said later no questions on guns, marriage, etc...which would have been the norm IF brokjaw hadn't cherry picked the questions to favor his boy.

bho doesn't share the same beliefs as the most of the USA on those subjects and brokjaw knows it. Thus he avoided them altogether.
