Question by Bill S: Why did Obama refuse to debate McCain in town hall settings?
McCain asked to debate Obama in a series of town hall debates, Obama refused. Anybody know why?
Manny. That is absurd. McCain rules in town hall settings. Have you ever seen Obama speak without prepared lines or a teleprompter? I guess not.

Cowardice?
Show me a time when Obama has stood up against anything difficult. He has lived a sheltered ivy league life. Never stood up to his party (the reason why he is the most liberal senator). The media gives him a pass on numerous issues (Rezko, Ayers, campaign funding promises, debate promises, etc.) Why would he start showing courage now?
