Given the 04 experience and Tom Brokaw's prestation at MTP, we can say for sure that McCain starts this debate with a lot of advantages and that the DC mindset will be present. So much for change!

1. With moderators like these, there will be follow-up questions to avoid
sound bites. Obama will excel in this by itself. McCain will be ready for the next question before he finishes answering the one he has to address.

2. Same old story.
Yawn!!!!


Why couldn't we have Rachel Maddow? Jonathan Alter? Dan Rather?

That's part of my wish list, anyway :)

3. Obama will do fine
no matter who the moderators are. He will stand or fall based on his own merits, and I for one feel he will stand tall.
