I wish the members of tonight's town hall debate audience had asked Senator McCain some of the following questions. They didn't:

• Is Governor Palin ready to be president if something happens to you?

<li>Is Governor Palin more qualified to be Vice President than Senator Biden?</li>

<li>Is Senator Obama less of an American than you?</li>

<li>Does your tax plan reduce taxes for 95% of Americans?</li>

<li>How does your POW status qualify you to be president?</li>

<li>Are your ties to Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac greater or lesser than those of Senator Obama?</li>

<li>What would you say to people who think Senator Obama is a muslim?</li>

<li>If you could only choose one, would you cut taxes for people making under $250K a year or over?</li>

<li>Do you belief Senator Obama is a traitor to America?</li>

<li>Does your friendship with G. Gordon Liddy reflect poorly on your judgement?</li>

<li>How can you be both a "maverick" and a "voice of reason"?</li>

<li>Does your part in the Keating Five make you a good candidate to manage a financial "rescue plan"?</li>

<li>Should people vote for you because Senator Obama is black?</li>

Instead we got a bunch of boring questions that I doubt anyone actually wanted answers to. Maybe next debate.
