Default Anyone watch the democratic debate?

I thought it was much better than the last one, a lot more back and forth, a lot more calling eachother out.

In my opinion, John Edwards won this debate and Kucinich came in second.

I still don't think any of these candidates are actually electable. Still waiting for Mr. Gore to participate.

Any warmongering, bible-thumping, communists - preferably with moustache - in this debate that I can vote for?

The amount of time allowed for each canidate was absurd. Richardson, Obama, Clinton, and Edwards all had like 7.5-9 minutes, and the others had between 2.5-4.5...

But anyway, I thought Biden did the best at sounding not-crazy and at the same time, not lying about what he really thought....

Of the "top 3" I thought Edwards had the best night and Hillary had the worst.

I was watching the post-debate show, you know, the part where CNN tells the American people what to think? And they all thought Hillary did the best - ridiculous. Some person who was in the audience asked the "panel" at the end whether they thought "Hillary avoided giving her own opinion and instead focused on bashing bush?" and the dumb woman panelist said "no". Ughhh

I dunno, but there might be a few other threads that are in need of trolling as well.

Edwards at least said something where Hillary and Obama competed at talking the most and saying the least. Seriously, was there anything Hillary said that wasn't a platitude?

At least Gravel (who is this guy anyway?) and Kucinich kept it interesting by pointing out what hypocrites the rest are. And Kucinich has a hot wife.

Gravel...talks like a maniac, he does a really bad job of communicating thoughts, and forming ideas, in my opinion. Kucinich is the opposite, he speaks very well, has good ideas, and isn't a hypocrite like Hillary/Obama.

John Edwards got owned by Obama when Obama correctly said that Edwards' position on the war is 4.5 years late. Hillary Clinton did much worse this time around IMO and Obama did much better. Actually it seemed to me that an Edwards-Obama ticket is what both candidates would want if either were to get to the general election.

I didn't watch any post debate coverage so I'm not sure how it was spun. These things are more like commercials. Why bother allowing the minor candidates on stage when they get half the time to answer questions? Anyway if the talking heads say Hillary won it just goes to show what a sham this all is.

I think Biden did the best in the debate.
