OK, I read it as undecided voters who were being sued by the Kenyan.

So these so called undecideds are undecided about whether to vote for Barak or for Obama? I am I getting this right?

Black voters who are undecided if they should let skin color trump their own rejection of his stance on homosexuality.

I don’t think it should just be undecideds who get to ask questions. I wonder if anyone will ask about the death of our Ambassador. Well I guess I won’t be tuning in I already know who I am voting for since I am not undecided.

It will be a cakewalk for Romney if he instructs his team to get practice questioners (interns, spouses of staffers) and give them the most outrageous, entitlement-minded, tug-at-the-heartstrings, wounded doe-eye liberal slop questions to ask him. Over and over until he is numbed from the shock of them and has solid answers for each. It will be like taking an exam. Liberals are evil, but not all that imaginative.

Think:

“I graduated with a degree in basket-weaving habits of 8th Century lesbians. Now I’m $150,000 in debt. Wahhh?”

“I live in Detroit, and everyone knows the biggest problem we face there is global warming. Why do you hate green energy, trees, fluffy bunnies and rainbows?”

“I work really hard and I collect the Earned Income Tax Credit to pay for the eight children I have. All of their fathers refuse to pay child support. I am one...sniff...of the...boo hoo, tissue please...47%. Why do you, gulp, refuse to represent me as my president? Sob!”

“I am in my thirties and attending a graduate program at Georgetown. I am also a dumb slut and completely unaware that I can get birth control pills at Wal*Mart for $10. Whyyyyy won’t you pay for my birth control?”

I thought the second debate was on Foreign Policy and the third was the town hall. Guess I got them reversed. I’d rather have the Town Hall last ...

In either case they shouldn't be asking questions

Romney agreeing to this type format is stupid

Gee. Maybe the oboma administration will conveniently forget about the "bias" lawsuit against Gallop, if Gallop "does the right thing" and gives oboma just this one little favor - like choosing left wing activists to fill the audience.
Everything would be forgiven. Maybe they could even share an obomabeer afterwords.

Might better tune out for this one. The fix is in.
Better start blogging a.s.a.p. so the world knows about this beforehand.

These townhall debates need to stop. All it is, is a bunch of whiny libs who want to know what programs are going to help their problem or some cause they believe in that week. It’s annoying. You’re not going to see someone stand up and ask if a program is going to be stopped because it’s failing.

Don’t forget the pony-tailed guy who asked Bubba to treat “us” like his children. (Blech)

For once, an accurate headline LOL!
Oh, and...

“Moderator: Candy Crowley (CNN Chief Political Correspondent)”

CNN has about a multi-million dollar appeal languishing in Obama’s NLRB (NLRB Case 05-CA-031828) since 2009.
Not that Candy’s bosses would say anything to influence her.

I want to know how one answers a foreign policy question
intelligently in two minutes?

Romney: Well Candy let me just say that...

Candy: Over to you Barrak.
