Obama and McCain Debate: Round 2

[CrimsonWhite]

There you go, Obama just deflected as well. The question was: how can we trust you with our money?

 

[clane1987]

Yay! Maverick talk! LOL

 

[notomccain]

[AVG-JOE]

McCain talking points helping anyone?

Loaded question. I would have deflected as well.

you answer it by saying we've only just begun to address the financial mess left by this administration.

mccain fibbied, too, when he said that he "suspended" his campaign. i'm surprised obama didn't call him on it. but i guess he wants to focus on the issues.

I thought he gave a good answer. Enough blame to go around for everybody, nobody is completely innocent.

It basically comes down to who do you trust more then the other sadly, but that's always been Washington Politics.

Obama I think is staying with McCain so far, which isn't good for McCain since this is what his supporters bragged what Obama couldn't do well.

 

[notomccain]

i think this is a great setting for obama.

 

[Kevin_Kennedy]

Obama says he's cutting spending more than adding to it. Absolute bullshit.

 

[CrimsonWhite]

obama is doing great!!

Keep telling yourself that sweety.

i just got off work and missed a bit of it...so far both seem to be holding their own...why trust any of them with our money?

Meanwhile McCain goes off attacking Obama and earmarks.

Least Obama answered the damn question.

Oh and McCain said "my friends" again. Man, If I were drinking I'd be just about bombed right about now.

 

[strollingbones]

o bullshit mccain says he knows how to fix the economy and oil crisis...i got to call bullshit on that one

 

[chapstic]

It is a loaded question, but McCain knows that the economy will get worse before it gets better. We've not yet hit rock bottom.

if the economy is that bad, why is every restaurant i go to completely packed. the mall of america has +5% earnings over last year. every ball game i watch is sold out. if the economy is that bad, why are people spending money? are they just running up their credit cards? if so, how do you know?

 

[jillian]

Keep telling yourself that sweety.

Obama is doing great. McCain is holding his own. So far no errors... HE just looks old and tired next to Obama and his sibilent "s" is annoying. lol..

 

[Modbert]

McCain deflects another question Crimson.

This man says we don't have enough money to fund everything Obama is proposing yet he says we can do all of this at once?

 

[strollingbones]

o mccain is messing up....workers instead of retirees if he says reaching across the aisle one more time...i will drink

 

[DavidS]

I like McCain's buy out plan for home mortgages.

Uh, that isn't a new idea. That was part of the rescue plan that they voted for. We're already doing that.

Depends on where you live.

In economic crisis, people turn to entertainment to get their minds off the crisis. So things like movies and baseball games will always be sold out.

Mall of America is one mall and restaurants across the nation are being affected over this crisis. The rising cost of food makes it tougher on these businesses.

 

[AVG-JOE]

I'm thirsty.

I'm switching from 'peace' to 'budget'.

See you in de-tox!
