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

McCain is a WINNER. And yes, you are very likely sick. Take your phony concern elsewhere.

McCain is doing a good thing here...invoking Reagan and Tip O’Neill.

Hussein has never taken on his party. Never EVER EVER. Good point, Mac.

Obama: “Only a few small businesses make more than $250,000. a year”, Is he insane? Few small businesses must have a payroll of only 4 people, Mom, Pop and the two kids?

Shut up troll

You know something I don't know? TGreg has been around since 04.

Lots of us not happy with McCain. He is doing OK considering he is trying to represent a moderate line as is to be expected. But... I am not thrilled with that line.

Allen West coming on the show Sunday night, we’ll talk about the debate.

Col. West could lend McCain his pair; that would be helpful.

McCain: The answer to Social Security is simple... it's been done before... reach across the aisle like Reagan did.

GAWD. He did not answer the question at all. He's not answering on Medicare either but at least he's talking about O raising taxes. I guess that's something.

Obama - if you make less than 250k a year, you will not see a tax increase.

Truth - if you make less than 250k a year, you will be SLAMMED by those whose taxes are raised (through this socialist redistribution of wealth program) as they pass the costs down, lay off workers, provide less jobs, etc.

next up is Mitt Romney. Palin is certainly NOT going to be the front runner for President in four years nor will she run for President.

I will never vote for Romney. I will vote for Palin. Just my humble opinion.

I’ve worked for several small businesses in my time...and a lot of times the payroll is more than 250k much less they take in.
