Debate #3! Obama vs Mccain

[touchmaster]

Discuss here! It's not on yet, but when it does come on lets discuss it here, mates. w00t!

[André Masséna]

More of the same. I'm actually not looking forward to it, because all I'm going to hear about in class is these three Democrats talk about how awesome Obama was and how stupid McCain was.

[Viking Prince]

I already owe my sweetie too much for the first debates -- it will be a movie night.

[Felixion]

I'm hoping that at some point in the debate Barack Obama will leap from his podium and jump John McCain and give him an old school, ghetto style beat-down while screaming "I told you cracka! I told you to watch yo' step mothaa! yo' !". Then, with McCain slumped in a pale, wrinkled pile of blood and teeth beneath him Obama will announce that he is in fact Tupac.

I propose a drinking game for this debate

For Barack: For every time he says "middle class" you take a shot. For every time he says "but what the American people really want to talk about" or some derivate thereof "is the economy" you eat a jalapeno. By the end of the session any continence or bowel problems you might have should be taken care of.

For McCain: Not so easy, this is going to be a little subjective. Let's just say that ever time The Chosen One tees it up for McCain, and McCain wiffs, you hit the bottle. You'll pass out before this mess is over.

McCain's drink part should be "my friends".

I might not be able to post my opinion of the debate later on, so I'll go ahead and post it now. .....

Obama once again displayed the even temperment and response of a true leader, even when goaded and belittled by McCain bringing his character into the race, once again! *sigh* Although the CNN response meters have shown at each debate that whenever McCain goes negative, his positives go down, evidently his "team" watches Fox instead and doesn't know that.

This last, desperate attempt by McCain to save his floundering campaing by using "military mode" in his approach to Obama, and the American people, has once again ...pardon the pun...backfired. It probably didn't help that earlier in the day polls showed he is TEN points down in Virginia, a state that until recently was one he could count on.

note - for the foreign readers of this forum, fyi, Virginia's main city is Richmond, capital of the Confederate States during the American Civil War.
Of course, its also where Washington and Jefferson are from.

That's my tongue in cheek pre-summary of the debate.

I actually have to watch it. I have my Political Science 101 class tomorrow. American Government. And we'll probably be quizzed on the debate.

Whee...

Politicl and science in no way shape or form belong in the same sentence.

Political Science is a college subject, and a field of study, basically.

neither dose economics

[HunterKYA]

I think this debate, more so than the others, will prove that McCain and Republicans are living in a world of disbelief about how America has gotten to where it is in the past 8 years and continue to claim they weren't responsible. If Obama sticks to his guns, he'll trounce McCain without much difficulty.

[The Good]

I'll be watching this debate too. Get ready guys, it's only a matter of five minutes now.

We're about to see what our possible future leader is about to say about various issues.

yes and it's a travesty. I've never seen a bigger BS subject.

[Last Roman]

well, it actually started out ok, both were answering the questions. But then it became politics as usual (though McCain seem to start it)

[Kiljan Arslan]

obamas winning in my book, but thats because he just bad mouthed that idiotic free trade.

What's wrong with free trade?

don't ask him that question, he has no idea.

hmmm lets see her it takes away a nations right to regulate what comes in. It takes away jobs that the states populace employs.

JP at least I'm not the one who claims debt dosn't cause inflation.

That's cute.

Seems like McCain is on a blink-a-thon. Right here it actually started about an hour ago...so here is a little summary

I agree with what John McCain wants to do but I disagree with how he wants to do it.
-Barrack Obama .....I think that's about all you need to know about both of them.
