Liveblogging The Second Debate – Thread 2

8:57PM
Josh Marshall reminds us about Brokaw's barbecue face:

9PM
Here comes the second debate. I'm hoping for Brokaw to pronounce "Waziristan."

9:01PM
Who is going to suck spit through his bottom teeth more often? McCain or Brokaw? I say Brokaw.

9:03PM
Eye contact! HEH?!

9:08PM
Bunch of Palin-like platitudes from McCain.

9:09PM
Can someone tell McCain that no-one who uses eBay actually likes Meg Whitman? Especially sellers.

9:10PM
I'm watching the CNN line thing. Hypnotic.

9:11PM
McCain corrects the black audience member. "It's not a bailout - it's a rescue." HEH?!

9:14PM
Obama is correcting "McCain's history, which isn't surprising." Go! Hitting McCain on deregulation.

9:15PM
Does McCain sound shakey and jittery tonight? His voice sounds wobbly.

9:18PM
Obama's line went off the charts with women on his housing answer.

9:18PM
Old woman: "Global economic CRISIS!" ROWWWR!

9:20PM
Obama off the charts again with both men and women on spending and borrowing money from China.

9:23PM
McCain blowing the lid off Planetarium Gate! HEH?!

9:25PM
McCain asked about entitlement programs. Bungles the answer for 10 seconds, then changes the subject to energy. He's awful tonight. Really sleepy and scattered. Obama meanwhile is sharp and sympathetic.

NEW THREAD. Run away!
