Am I seeing three chairs on that stage?

[Clio the Leo]

Is this a "everyone sit around a table and talk" style debate tonight?

While that benefits the physically inferior McCain (Obama was the KING of the stool last week, lol) I am SALAVATING at the notion that McCain will be forced to be THAT close to him, something he clearly is not comfortable with.

1. Yes, McCain, Schieffer and THAT ONE will

be sitting at the same table, with McCain and THAT ONE separated only by Schieffer.

5. .... and seperated by McCain's cowardice....

... No WAY does he bring up Ayers then, he wont do it ..... not with Obama sitting right next to him. (and for all the other reasons that have been mentioned as to why it's disadvantageous for him to.)

2. Yup, that's the format.

He won't be able to avoid looking at him tonight.

9. unless mc cain pretends to be taking notes or looking at Bob

throughout the whole debate.

3. Yes - that's what I heard. And also an opinion that Obama does better

behind a podium or looking cool on a stool. Doesn't matter - it'll probably be a bonus seeing the two of them next to each other -- the comparison will be dramatic.

4. Tag team.

Palin's gonna come out.

Then Hillary is gonna come out of the audience and say "get off that stage".

[Clio the Leo]

7. lol, will Palin be spraying hair spray? Or carrying a tennis racket?

(that's all of the 80s pro wrestling props I can think of right now)

8. I told my mom ...

"Damn her hair is looking real 'B-52-ish' these days".

6. That's good. McCain lost it and did very poor interview at that table in Des Moines.....

He seems to get tense when close to people and he drops his hands on the table making noise and then appears angry.
