I think the MSM pushing that townhalls give an advantage to mccain is great

[still_one]

I predict again the MSM will be shown wrong in their assessment

1. There will no doubt be mccain "plants"

who will try and blindside Obsma...........:scared:

5. I am not so sure. Of course there will be mccain supporter in the audience

but there will also be Obama supporters

2. It's a game they play. Unlike McCain's usual adoring crowd with

their soft and silly questions, tonight's questioners will be "undecideds". He'll choke.

3. what could give McStupid the advantage

is Brokaw "selecting" the questions

4. Yes, McBrokaw will toss softballs to McBush and raise all the rw

talking points against Obama.

6. Obama's camp has won the expectations game for all of the debates.

Especially with the two presidential debates so far (including the one tonight). The first debate was supposed to be McCain's home turf, plus McCain had spent half of this summer telling the American people that Obama is like Paris Hilton. For this debate, the MSM is trying so hard to get McCain back into their horse race they're actually doing him a disservice by raising expectations for him. I've seen his town halls. He's not that great and they're always filled with a bunch of partisan hacks.
