Someone has to know the answer to the first trivia question - come on commenters...
by Gregory Wallace, CNN 10/17/2012 12:14:07 AM
What to expect tonight: Moderator Candy Crowley, CNN's Chief Political Correspondent, will welcome the candidates to the stage shortly after 9 p.m. ET. Rather than standing behind podiums or sitting at a table, as was the case in the previous debates this year, Romney and Obama each have a chair and a table for their notepad. T

here will be no opening statements. Candidates will have two minutes to answer questions posed by the audience (82 uncommitted voters) and one minute to respond to follow-ups from the moderator. Each candidate will have 2 minutes for a closing statement.

Romney will receive the first question.

Correct!

Time for tonight's first TRIVIA question, and we'll start with an easy one. Which two candidates participated in the 1st televised presidential debate?

Anyone have the answer to tonight's first trivia question?Leave your answer in the comments.

Another take on debate questions:
I think the biggest focus should be on homeland security and the economy, I hope there will especially be questions about homeland security, such as training material censorship, interference from political correctness, and double standards.EvanCOct 16, 2012 at 8:20 PM
