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.

These health care fines and prohibitions will be the doom of Obama. People DO NOT want to hear that they can't go to the doctor they choose---they think "mandated insurance" will still let them keep their doctor.

McCain has a huge opening here.

Logistics support and no fly-zone at relatively little cost. Yesus. That One doesn’t understand that that is where all the cost is.

To stop the HUGE Rise in Poll numbers :

McCain needs to state that having a car is a right.

McCain: “Obama would have brought our troops home in defeat, and I’ll bring them home in victory and honor”. Nice shot Senator McCain!

Healthcare is not a “right”.

Exactly...nobody has a RIGHT to the work produced by another. Nobody!

OK, let's see you photoshop the Fairey poster and put a Hitler moustache on Obama.

Calling your bluff.

Cheers!

“It’s super boring. That’s for sure. You know if political nerds like us are bored, the rest of the country turned it off an hour ago”

Yep...i turned it off 30 minutes ago, watched a little of a recorded show and then got bored reading this thread. This is the most boring debate I’ve seen.

How can Obama be so wordy and say nothing at all?

Because he has nothing to say

Hussein’s nonsense about military strength and economy shows truly how stupid he is.

I think McCain is trying to appear to be more diplomatic in his discourse, I personnally wish he’d get a bit more animated but I have to realize that he’s not Palin.

He is using the Clinton doctrine. Bloviate enough and the
“herd” thinks that you are saying something intelligent.

Straight talk doesn’t work with leftie do-gooders!

A LOT of us are having literal physical/spiritual reactions to him that cannot be explained by mere political differences.>>>>>>>>>>>>>

He is evil incarnate>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Agreed. Obama is a black hole of fascist evil, a man who if elected will strip us of our freedoms , by executive mandate, and by judicial fiat of deconstructionsist judges. I detest everything Obama stands for.

The weak minded see only as far as the feel good crap Obama spouts

That includes the whiners on here tonight, the pseudo TROLLS, who hardly realize what this is about.

Good vs. Evil. Take a good look at it and think.

“Troll has been here 5 years longer than you with all due respect.” So?

Always good to do one's homework before calling people names around here. Cheers and welcome aboard.
