Final Presidential Debate Liveblog

Hofstra University
Focus on Economy & Domestic Issues
I gotta say, being from Long Isl& & having a final debate here at Hofstra is pretty exciting. Too bad it was virtually impossible to get tickets. According to all objective measurements, Obama/Biden are 3-0 so far, & I’m sure Senator Obama will be looking for a sweep tonight. John McCain finds himself in an unenviable predicament. On a one h&, he desperately needs to shake up a race & cut into Obama’s lead while making him seem unacceptable. On a oar h&, his relentless attacks have seemed to backfire, with Obama seeing consistent (albeit modest) gains in his already decent lead. John McCain has already promised to bring up Ayers, but will he actually do it? Will we see a mythical “honorable” McCain we’ve heard so much about? Or will we see an extension of a wingnut-fueled do-anything pol of a past few months? We’re about to find out.
In a meantime, check out this hysterical McCain debate prep video.
