I saw on FR a few days ago something about Biden saying to BO, “I’v got the next one” immediately after the debate.

Was that true or just someone making a funny?

There is no way the media will allow Romney to answer real questions without interference. Candy Crowley has already received threats, I believe there is an effort to get her removed because a CNN poll showed Romney won the last debate and she’d not “unbiased”, or something.
She will not want to join Jim Lerher, a man that has been in a mainstay in the leftwing media since like the early 80’s under Obama’s bus.

I think Romney will hold his own, but I don’t expect the rousing victory of the previous debate.

Mitt was next to last (last being NutPaul) of my favs during the primaries and when he got the nod, thanks to big GOP-e money and RINO support I figured him a second helping of McCain for Obama’s supper...
His picking Ryan and now the first debate does tease a sanguine flutter from my hard cold and dispirited conservative heart though...

Gotta have faith but if Mitt wins and then turns on us we can hopefully get Sarah to primary his ass to Hell come 2016!

I remember the town hall debate in 2008 before supposedly undecided voters. I know one of the people who was in the crowd—a black college professor who has a picture of Malcolm X on her office door. I’m sure she was really undecided about whether to vote for Obama or McCain.

Obama’s foreign policy experience is failure after failure.
Fast & Furious = Dead Mexicans
Benghazi = Butchered Ambassador and staff
“Arab Spring” = Caliphate, storming of embassies
Wars? Drones now hitting Yemen, Pakistan, Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya...
Bowing to Dictators while slapping the Queen of England on the back
Stabbing Israel in the back
No time to meet ally Netanyahu on the eve of an attack/war - but plenty of time for Beyonce, Jay-Z, Letterman, ‘The View’...

This is going to be fun...
Mitt should tear this poser a new @$$hole bigger than Michelle’s.

“I just don't see how ...”

Since the first debate I have been trying to envision Obozo in the next...and I can't. What does he do? Come out hard and in charge? Try to be quietly authoritative? No matter what he tries to do he's going to slam into the brick wall of THE TRUTH put up by Romney If the difference in his deportment is very pronounced (overcorrected) he risks looking, in comparison to the first debate, less like a Leader and more like the punk that he is There is no way Mitt is going to let him double down on his bull$hit without rising to respond. It's gonna' be interesting...

So how does Obama go on the offense over a topic that is a loser for him?

He and the propaganda media will simply lie.

The Osama Bin Laden thang is going to be over used and people will see it for what it is ( scoring election year political points ) and so obvious considering the TV documentary airing in Nov.

This is not February of 1991 when Bush Sr. was on top of the world after the Gulf War I or George W. Bush after Gulf War II.

What's on people's minds today are jobs, how are they going to feed their families, gas prices, what's currently going on in the middle east.

His handlers won’t let him get off point.

I'm sure they'll try to coach him on this but once he's out there, all bets are off. Under stress, newly learned responses tend to fail, and one falls back on previous well practiced habits, even if they aren't the most functional. Under pressure from Romney, Obama won't be able to stop being himself.

Obama will just put on his Seattle Slew smile and hope he’ll woo the idiots.

I believe the next debate is combined foreign/domestic policy; the third and last debate is solely foreign policy.

I’m concerned that the audience will be stacked full of Obama supporters, so that no matter what he says or how he says it, he will get a positive reaction.

Straight from the web site of the debate commission:

Topic: Town meeting format including foreign and domestic policy
Air Time: 9:00-10:30 p.m. Eastern Time
Location: Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York (Tickets)
Sponsor: Commission on Presidential Debates
Participants: President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney
Moderator: Candy Crowley (CNN Chief Political Correspondent)
The second presidential debate will take the form of a town meeting, in which citizens will ask questions of the candidates on foreign and domestic issues. Candidates each will have two minutes to respond, and an additional minute for the moderator to facilitate a discussion. The town meeting participants will be undecided voters selected by the Gallup Organization.

In the case of debates, the moderator is not unlike the vote counter mentioned by Stalin who said something like “it’s not the votes that count, it’s who counts the votes”. While Obama had a little mild help during the last debate I suspect we’ll see a full court press to make him look good in the next one. Anyone know who the moderator will be?

The next debate will cover foreign and domestic policy. The third-all foreign policy which is good because it’s closest to election day.

Crowly is going to try to be the hero at the Townhall debate by selecting questions that favor Obama and by playing gotcha with Romney. O will play to the audience and will do his Mussolini head tilts and swarmy put-downs that play to his leftist base. The questions will focus on social issues like abortion and gay rights — and avoid the economy and Libya. Finally, there will be questions about Bain, the 47%, and Romney’s taxes. I suspect Obama will avoid interacting with Romney at any level and will try to ingratiate himself with the audience. He’ll look at the audience and say something like: “I don’t know who this guy is. He says one thing one day, and something else the next. And they way he tap dances around issues he could win Dancing with the Stars.” And idiots in the audience will laugh and cheer.

Mitt will also have millions of us praying for him. BO, not so much.
