14 days to the first debate....
Edited on Fri Sep-12-08 01:41 AM by speedoo
"First Presidential Debate: – Date: September 26 – Site: University of Mississippi – Topic: Foreign Policy & National Security – Moderator: Jim Lehrer – Staging: Podium debate – Answer Format: The debate will be broken into nine, 9-minute segments. The moderator will introduce a topic and allow each candidate 2 minutes to comment. After these initial answers, the moderator will facilitate an open discussion of the topic for the remaining 5 minutes, ensuring that both candidates receive an equal amount of time to comment."

The moderator and the format are as favorable for our guy as it will get. But it's not clear that this write up has the correct topic.

I hope Obama's more aggressive campaign puts McSame on his heels by the time of this debate.

3. Probably a coin flip for #1, and then they will alternate. nt
