Tuesday Afternoon Pre-Debate Open

Open | Tue, Oct 7, 2008 at 3:26:36 pm PDT

Here’s an open thread to check out the embedded live stream from C-SPAN. Nothing on right now but an empty set with a few people meandering around and a soundtrack of random indecipherable background chatter. And by the way, registration is open for a short time.

[Video moved to recent thread...]

UPDATE at 10/7/08 4:40:05 pm:

Registration is now closed, with 163 hatchlings.

I think Ayers and Wright have been farmed out to Sarah. McCain will be all over the economy and whatever he wants to talk about. Brokaw will be a non-event. Only vague references to Ayers from McCain... it's going to be the town hall format McCain's been begging for and I predict a very big win for John tonight. Tonight it's do or die and he knows it. The momentum must swing his way starting tonight and if he survives the pace he's going to set he'll live to be 100.

Evenin all! Man, I'm praying hard for Mac to kick ass tonight...it all hinges on tonight...if he messes up, then I think it's all over. It's only 30ish days till the election and unless the RNC has a tape of BO having a wide stance moment in some random men's room somewhere (and even that might not do the trick) then the odds of Mac winning on election day are slim.

Sorry for the run on sentence.

In other news, I finally got to see the SNL skit...work blocks some of the vids, and it's scary how dead on right they were.

Funny, in a macabre sort of way.

I heard a report the other day on Fox news that Belmont University won the right to host the debate by, among a list of other qualifications, dropping their no liquor on campus policy so that the media could be provided with a bar tent.
I wonder if that's an absolut requirement.

"it's the economy, stupid"

we will here Obama talk about spending hundreds of billions, right?

(and why not, since we're spending it bailing out wall street, only that's not really what it's about, or is it? like obama or mccain is going to clarify that)

I just hope McCain has something constructive to say, and not just shoot blame and accusations all over the place - no matter how true.

I know it's a month too early but ABC, NBC, and CBS have projected Barack Obama to be the winner of the Presidential election. Usually, they wait until some of the polls have been counted on the evening of the election, but they figure why wait? They sure are efficient.

It's not specifically on the economy...it's on what members of the audience and Brokaw ask, which can be anything. So, yeah, it may be on the economy.../

The last debate is specifically on the economy (but I still think they need to ask foreign policy questions then to make up for the first debate.)

So the monster lied about Ayers. And it was a stupid lie. That's because this monster is a stupid liar. Apparently, if the opinion polls are right, that's what America's looking for, now. It would also seem American wants a socialist president with no discernible practical or leadership experience. A venal hypocrite who would be a crypto-muslim if he believed in any god other than himself, which he does not. If the polls are right, America appears ready to close up shop, set it on fire, and lock itself in. If that happens, I see little alternative but to wait out the inevitable collapse. Unless we win. Once again, if the polls are right, and with all our enemies arrayed before us, John McCain has nothing more to lose tonight. Let's hope he goes for the victory, then, and good fortune to him and our nation.

What is the audience make up? They'll be asking the questions.

Supposedly independent voters picked by an independent firm (a pollster?).

It's really a giant focus group, I think.

Since it's a media event, do you need three guesses, or will one be sufficient?

Lurker no more; shells are swept up and the first round is on me. As for McCain, I've known a few Navy pilots in my time in the service, they tend to be mission oriented and don't take prisoners. Obama is a target-rich environment.

Silly, you're not supposed to dump the drinks on yourself. Hand them over nicely. NOW

Considering how thin it is, that should take, oh, 30 seconds.

If the debate turns toward the economy McCain needs to pound the Obama Fannie Mae connection hard.
