Debates: What Will be the Shit Question and Asked by Whom?
With Tiny Tim dead it's going to be a real scramble among the big boys to see who can score that hit, that one slime-bag question that they dream will destroy Obama (as the albino smirks and looks innocent). What do you think that "you're screwed no matter how you answer it" question will be; and which of the pathetic paid-off clowns will ask it?? (Too bad Obama can't just say "fuck you and the corporation who bought you)!

2. I'd have to ask.."what will be the
shit questions?" It will be a repeat of the abc debate but why the HELL can't Dems do some pre-emptive action? I've been asking this since 2000.

5. Excellent question.
there's no reason whatsoever they couldn't negotiate some terms of fairness out front of the event.

Also, the Obama Campaign itself could it seems do some pre-emptive work with the network as well.

Let's hope that's happening behind closed doors at least.

13. There's got to be a way to
make the media work for us for a change.

17. I'd love to see Obama do just that, by insisting on fair a format ...
with a minimum of trivial stupid "gotcha" questions

9. I'll never understand how ABC was able to
bamboozle our guy in that joke of a debate. Though his composure was impressive and he actually defended Hillary when they went to Tuzla.

I think there is just no chance that Obama will walk into that kind of shitmess again.

I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait.

I can't wait.

14. Call me cynical..I think the corporate-
whores are plotting to make john mccain look brilliant and Obama look arrogant as we pound.

They know mccain can't win on the issues so they have to continue the Orwellian nightmare full speed ahead. That's why Obama has to find away to take them all on and come out the winner who most Americans want to lead our country.

15. I think you're right there.
Obama will get a grip on these debates compared to that last one, it will be interesting to see how he ensures that it doesn't happen again.

What a shit trap that was.

10. The agreement should be only questions about the issues
specifying economy, war, taxes, education, etc., etc. and no personal baiting about character and the like because it's rediculous to think that at this stage of the game someone has to be asked if they "hate America" and all that shit. And if a network doesn't agree, then Obama will move on to negotiations with another network.

12. Yeah, I was hoping that was a good thing since

Rahm was such a valuble player in the 2006 Dem election win:)...Since the other person who was so valuble will be a little busy setting up the Convention.

18. Shorter answer: What will be the not shit question?
Great question by the OP, though, and a great suggested response for Obama.

Can't predict the actual shit questions, because they will be on whatever non-issues have been generated by McCain ads and media echoes that week.
