2nd Presidential Debate Tonight 9 EST!!!!!!!

[Dedicated Mind]

anyone interested? anyone watching? order the pizza and the popcorn, we are in for a doozy. I expect a strong performance from Obama. He knows mitt's line of attack already. any predictions?

[Pressing-On]

I'll be watching, but not eating popcorn. lol

I am very interested to see if Obama holds back again. If he does, I'll know that he was instructed on the changing of the guard. Obama had, at least, two very good opportunities to question Romney and he didn't take it. That doesn't really make sense. Playing possum or a strategic stand down?

In the last debate, he acted just like George Bush, Sr. - He wasn't trying to win. Tonight we will find out.

my prediction is:
If you like Obama you will say he won the debate
If you like Romney you will say he won the debate

hope this question and answer type meeting is not stacked with pro-Obama questioners this time.

They said the same thing about Martha Raddatz. But she, pointedly, put both candidates on the spot in the VP debate. For Biden, she left no squirming room on Libya. For Ryan, she left no squirming room on his evading details on his 20% tax plan.

It was a casual debate and she let them duke it out as though they were alone on stage. Frankly, I liked it. It was very reminiscent of a morning talk show. I liked that more than I do the podium stuff.

[Pressing-On]

This is a great summation of what has happened with our debate system.
