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.

McCain can't be too mean because of the candy-ass independents.

The Indies don't like it when someone is mean. They're all squishy good government types.

They all need to be horsewhipped.

Best,

Chris

Cool! Is she the one who turned your daisy orange?

McCain is too nervous. He is repeating himself. Obviously, he is not comfortable with this line of questioning.

McCain is doing much better than he did in the first debate.

Agreed. Much Much better.

reminds me of Nixon vs Kennedy. :-

Exactly. Except McCain ain't gonna be around eight years later to win it.

Is it me or does this audience look skeptical (except for the one goofy girl who is grinning like a loon at Obama)?

Is McCain awake? Its over. He is just stammering and saying the same short phrases over and over. What an idiot.

:-(

This is sad.

Obama: I want to go thru the federal budget, line by line ...

So, Obama wants to be president for life?

“McCain is a LOSER and it shows tonight. I’m just sick! Obama will win this.”

Goodbye.

These debate threads would be much nicer without these whiny posters.

Tell me Obama didn’t say earmarks.

How about his history of earmarks? Don’t get me started.

Money to public schools that radicals got instead... earmarks to Michelle’s workplace, one million for UC.

He is doing terrible.

He didnt hit Obama and the Dems NEARLY as hard enough on Mae and Mac.

Obama has personally attacked him more and HE’S IN THE LEAD!

He’s acting like he’s talking to a bunch of Florida retirees from New York who just want to play golf and shop
