The final debate between Sen. Barack Obama and John McCain begins in less than two hours.

What will McCain do? Will he stay on issues or make a last minute sleaze attack on Obama?

How will Obama respond? How should he respond?

We'll all be here to live-blog the debate -- Big Tent Democrat, TChris, the TL Kid and me -- hope you will join us.

In the meantime, here's a place for your last minute debate thoughts.

    they channel their inner Hillary since we're dealing with domestic issues  ;)

    Me, I'll be on Project Runway and hauling up the 63lbs of pet meat downstairs, along with canning some beans, pineapple, bok choy and anything else that needs it {grin}

    Since Hillary will be there, they will be (none / 0) (#6)

    but she (MO) is being accompanied by Mrs. Chuck Hagel (gag). I hate this sucking up to conservatives stuff. Maybe they'll all three be together.

    HC and MO should arrive together (none / 0) (#14)

    I think she's arriving with Mrs. Hagel.

    "Elections have consequences, and this election may be the most important of my lifetime. We have a chance to throw out the disastrous policies of the last eight years and elect a leader who is smart, honest, steady and wise.

    Sounds like it isn't just the war to Mrs. Hagel. Who would have thought...Hagels on one side, Lieberman on the other. Just the opposite of what it used to be.

    But, imo, HRC should be in the mix (5.00 / 3) (#21)
