The Town Hall debate questions are asked by a group of undecided voters selected by Gallup.

Since people have been asking and I wondered myself I thought I'd look it up. There was mention of internet questions but at present that doesn't seem to be the plan. I don't know how it works, but I'd assume Candy Crowley gets them ahead of time but the people get to ask them themselves and then she moderates the replies.

Will it be a Town Hall style set, with the candidates on a level with the audience? Anyone know?

How the hell can you be undecided at this point? What more do you want to hear?

It's like they want to get paid for their votes. I bet many won't even vote.

It's an endless tease, and I don't really buy it as a big block of America. But that's what they say. Maybe the media does pay them to keep everyone freaked out...
