2nd UK Election Debate - 2010

BBC News: Reports on the political buildup to the 2nd leaders debate in the UK Election. As the second debate is on Foreign Affairs expect PM Gordon Brown not to say " I agree with Nick ( Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats ) a lot, on Foreign Affairs there is a channel between Labour and Liberal Democrats, from Iraq to the UK's nuclear defence, also on these issues David Cameron could say " I agree with the Prime Minister " just don't expect DC to say that during the hour and half debate. Lets recall folks from our American cousins, in 1984 President Reagan had a awful first debate with VP Walter Mondale, in the second debate the age question came up and Reagan made a joke of how young Mondale was, the election was over, Reagan won 49 States and 59% of the vote vote. Lets be honest PM Brown is not great at PR, he tried a joke last week at the expense of the Conservative Party, it fell flat, by flat it was not show that much in after the debate. As to young Mr Clegg ( always follow the lead of the Gipper ) this will be tougher for Clegg, he will have to defend the LibDems and their policy to get rid of UK's nuclear arsenal, they seem to trust Obama, go and ask the Czech Republican and Poland if you can trust Obama. This blog will do a live tweet of the debate folks, just click the link on this page to my Twitter Page. As for prediction of winners, if Clegg doe not make a mistake then he could win the second debate, David Cameron has to up his game, go after Clegg and Brown, as for Gordon Brown, well lets be kind, he knows details.
