...is that anyone who asks a question about pizza will be immediately ushered out.

Did you see that Pizza Hut is promising a lifetime's worth of pizza to anyone who asks a candidate if they prefer pepperoni or sausage?

That is so full of bullshit -to take up time in a public forum for one's corporate needs- that I hope someone shuts it down hard.

Which, of course, could lead to the followup question, "Do you prefer pepperoni or sausage in your underwear?" I have no doubt the President could come up with something to answer that question with. Zomney would sputter once or twice, smoke would come out of his ears, and "TILT" would appear in his eyes.

(Don't mind me. It's Saturday morning and I may have had a wee dram too much fortified coffee. )

I would ask that question in a heartbeat. Because, their own product is a far cry from pizza.

He can somehow stack the audience with partisan supporters that cheer his every move and boo the Prez. Think Univision. And with the help of a biased moderator, that could be all he needs.

I think that the MSM will at the very least obfuscate who "wins" the debate, and many folks will agree, because it's in the MSM, and they didn't see it for themselves. Therefore, I think that the MSM will dictate who wins and who loses. They want it to be a horse race, because it will bring in more ad money for them, and that's their only concern.

They brag about a lot of town halls he has down- in some of which there are pretty hot shows of bad temper. Anyone REALLY care to comment on he performs and how this event can(will) be stacked in his favor?

I never watched any but I remember that Kerry did very well in his.

the media will swoon at how Presidential the fart was. This year the media seems to be out to tear down Obama. They're still saying Ryan did well whereas it was a complete one-sided beat down. And even MSNBC is saying Romney made good points in his debate whereas he was all aggression and no substance.

I just read the post by ModLibCentrist. It was hidden by a jury. I am very much a leftist and child of the 60's. I was surprised that it had even been reported as disruptive...etc. It wasn't offensive or anything. I'm surprised that it was reported, let alone censored.

At least according to the MSM.

If he clearly blows it out his ass we'll hear about Obama's narrow victory.

Obama beating him but not by much will be a narrow.Romney victory.
