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.

Pedal to the metal, John. Don’t let up.

A tax cut for 95% of Americans? Obama, what percentage of Americans do not pay income tax?
Besides pal, there isn't enough money in the US to pay for all your damned social programs.

True that Perot helped, but the Democrats messed up the economy with a S&L disaster that rattled during Bush #1 though the Republicans had nothing to do with it.

Same thing doe W.
His administration is not responsible for the Clinton sub-prime mess from 1993, but they all scream it is Bush and Republicans.

W and Republicans need to brand all these bank collapses on the butts of Democrats.

But he isn’t answering it. Oops, now he is...

[Taffini]

McCain wants to give the “poor” a $7,000 tax exemption per child! That will buy a lot of cigarettes, beer, drugs and tatoos

Allright more ink

[TV Dinners]

didn’t matter... he didn’t answer the question and was allowed to ramble about his BS tax plan

[TonyInOhio]

Hang it up.

Go away.

[NOBAMA in 08]

Does Obama color his scalp? Just looks unusual.

[luvie]

I hope McCain reminds folks of that before the evening’s over!

[OrangeDaisy]

Does your hair look good?

I think so!

Tina fey from SNL. She played Palin on an SNL debate skit against Biden.
Watch it, it's funny when she talks about the drinking game.

Obama is still wanting to respond and is getting frustrated.

Obama claims only "a few percent" of companies make over $250,000. Does anybody know what "a few percent" is?

[iceshaving]

not a very good answer

[AndyJackson]

Bambi isn't answering the question about what entitlements to cut.

McCain says he will answer the question.

[valkyry1]

Do you understand the difference between a tax exemption and a tax credit? The former is deducted from your taxable income. If it sends your taxable income past zero, you don't get a check for the difference.

McCain is missing point after point....chance after chance.

All the shots he is missing have Conservative Answers!!!

Wrong guy....but we got Palin.
