Democratic debate on CNN tonight

[micfranklin]

That's about all I have to say, Democrats-CNN-8 pm eastern-debate.

[micfranklin]

Ooh, that was a low blow by Obama and Clinton got him back and he looks pissed. It's gonna be a long night...

[ECW]

Hillary more than held her own. The rest looked like also-rans and my buddy Dennis Kucinich was as confrontational as ever but to no avail.

[preservanation]

Hillary will be your nominee.
All others are spar partners, and ones who are well expected to take a dive, just to show us what a tough-guy Hillary is.
I see the GOP doing very well in '08 against Hillary.
Y'all could be going into another dry-spell for four more years...or longer.
Too Bad, So Sad.

The biggest mistake that the Democrats could make, besides moving on impeachment against Cheney, is selecting Clinton as their presidential candidate.

She's demonstrated that she's a master of political double speak, she accepts contributions from dubious sources, she has no grasp of foreign policy, she's arrogant and she's a Clinton.

An awful lot of people just don't trust her and she doesn't fit the mold of the type of solid leadership that this country wants.

That is ok. Your nominee will be Gulianni and he will never win.

Might be Gulianni. Might not be. Regardless, people are becoming tired of the ineptitude and squabbling amongst the Democrats. That disaffection only lends growing support for another Republican in the White House.

[AnnEsthesia]

lol... people are, eh? Gimme a break. Gulianni will be your nominee because Fox News has picked them and the mindless masses will vote for him because of that.

And please, there is as much squabbling among the Republicans... the only difference is no one wants another Republican so no one cares. ;)

Fox News dictates who the Republican candidate will be and people will vote for him as a direct result of Fox News? Since when?

If the Democrats, as with you, believe that they will achieve an easy victory because they of the mistaken impression that everyone hates Bush and the Republicans, they may be in for a big surprise.

[AnnEsthesia]

Fox news decides it as much as anyone decides the Democratic candidate. You all keep saying we have no choice. We have as much choice as you do.[hr]Oh, and I have yet to see anyone in the Republican field who can appeal to a broad audience. They are pretty much all one trick ponies playing to the core conservatives.

Your inference is that Fox News picks the Republican candidate and in this case it is Gulianni. You also infer that people will vote for Gulianni only because Fox News picked him.

Am I correct in interpreting the meaning of your quote?

[AnnEsthesia]

You don't think that people will be influenced by their beloved Fox News picking Gulianni?

[micfranklin]

Hillary more than held her own. The rest looked like also-rans and my buddy Dennis Kucinich was as confrontational as ever but to no avail.


Well I'll admit she did better this time and that Obama did screw up on one of those questions.

Perhaps a small number, but if you believe that Fox News support for Gulianni is the deciding factor in who the "mindless masses" vote for I believe that you'd be mistaken.

I can't imagine, as you infer, that the vast majority of people voting for a candidate would do so solely because a television network endorses that candidate.
