Undecideds To Quiz Obama, Romney
The questions asked at Tuesday night’s presidential debate will be left to a coterie of undecided voters
assembled by Gallup pollsters, so don’t be surprised if they invite
President Obama
and his Republican opponent, former Massachusetts Gov.
Mitt Romney
, to
pander to
address concerns unique to their lines of work, their favorite causes or the problems they face as individuals. For example, that might include questions about whether the government is doing enough about
cancer
or
Alzheimer’s disease
, or why Washington bailed out the big banks but not a local business whose line of credit dried up. Personally, I like those questions. They’re a reminder of what people think government ought to focus on, as opposed to what Washington seems to spend all of its time on/
