Rudy said he thought mankind was contributing to global warming. <BR/>Huckabee is starting to irritate me. I am tired of the whole "you cannot question me because I a a preacher and I have the moral right" attitude. His people's attacks on Romney's religion cannot be taken back, no matter how much he apologizes. Kind of like how Shillary's people keep attacking Obama.<BR/>hmmmmm.<BR/>Seems like Arkansan political strategy crosses party lines.Ron Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05401859974073059650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-45630603526020986622007-12-13T10:28:00.000-06:002007-12-13T10:28:00.000-06:00Great rundown of the debate, Karen, as always.

I agree with y'all - seems pointless to get hit up for soundbytes and fast thinking only. Maybe the point is the hope that someone will really step on it beyond repair - live at the debate. <BR/><BR/>I would have loved to have seen it just to hear Alan Keyes speak - the guy is formidable.<BR/><BR/>About Rudi though - I don't know anyone who is going to sit it out just because he wore a dress on Saturday Night Live or is kinda <BR/>loose on social things.<BR/><BR/>Great Post! Thank you for sharing - I got more out of theis report than the Yahoo news' blurb.GrEaT sAtAn'S gIrLfRiEnDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09760252542953109449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-42661260010221680512007-12-12T21:37:00.000-06:002007-12-12T21:37:00.000-06:00I' m with Jennifer,I ahte it when they talk over e...I' m with Jennifer,I ahte it when they talk over each other and you cant understand a word anyone says.Stylinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01934065600057813575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-22352195673420667732007-12-12T18:31:00.000-06:002007-12-12T18:31:00.000-06:00Maybe she (the moderator) was overcompensating and...Maybe she (the moderator) was overcompensating and was so super stiff because she'd read all the horrid, scathing reviews received by her overly emotional and animated counterparts at CNN.<BR/><BR/>These debates are so pointless. There are too many voices shilling their wares, and you can't hear any one of them over the others. And if I wanted to base my decision on 30 second sound bytes, I'd actually watch the political commercials flooding the airwaves.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13499442091022625950noreply@blogger.com
