Big story from tonight's debate? Make your predictions here!

Obama just needs to hold steady, so I don't think we'll hear anything too surprising from him. He's been rock solid so far and I don't expect tonight to go any differently.

So what'll it be?

Another condescending and borderline racist moment, a la "that one"?

McCain leaving his seat to wander around in the background while Obama talks?

A new "bold" (read, "erratic, wacky, downright kooky") plan for the economy?

Temper tantrum? (Hey, a girl can dream!)

Or will there be no "big story" -- just the talking heads saying "McCain needed a game changer, and this wasn't it"?


In any case, here's to our guy kicking some ass tonight! :toast:

And here's what he's doing now, in case you haven't seen this :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt_TnQqkVyk

Obama ducks and the punch catches Bob Schieffer in the ear.

12. Market down 733; housing values plummet; salaries next.
This one won't matter. I think it's over, although I will keep working and donating until the election.

Stay safe, Barack.

13. Obama smacks down McCain over Ayers, Klan Rallies
McCain will finally find the balls to bring up Ayers to Obama's face. But Barack's had weeks to prepare for that moment of truth. He will be ready. If he's smart, and we know he is, he will bring up McCain and Palin's Klan rallies.

14. Obama is not going to rock the boat. And I'm not sure McSame can quite yet look Obama in the eyes.
So there you have it. McSame can't even look Obama in the eye, so I don't see a big story. LOL!
