Presidential Debate Tonight: Don't Miss it
Live from South Carolina, the Democrat Candidates will go at it on MSNBC. With that said, I will probably miss it (!) so please post your views about it here! I think it is at 4 p.m. Eastern time.

I'm so excited to see Barack Obama in the debate arena. Go Barack!!!!!!

msnbc.com. Of course, their video feed isn't the greatest. As I said, the mighty cspan will be showing it later I'm sure. I'm gonna watch it late tonight. Can't wait...

The US was just bombed, What would you do. You have 30 sec.

Apparently, this is a question that was asked at the debate. I would have started by saying, "Well, I certainly wouldn't have sat around reading 'My Pet Goat'...."

I thought that the debate was pretty good.
Hilary and Obama really did well.

I watched some clips, I think Obama and Hillary came across real well. They didn't give them enough time to really answer the questions, so they frequently avoided the questions. Maybe it will be better when some of the other candidates drop out. I also really liked a lot of the things that Richardson had to say.

Richardson did have some nice things to say and Kucinich (sp) really came across as the outsider looking in with dramatic democratic views. Gravel made Kucinich look tame in comparison.
DCR agrees with the thinning of the field. Gravel/Dodd being in the debate, wasting the little time that they had was unfortunate.
DCR would love to see a 90 minute or 2 hour debate on the Iraq issue ONLY. That would sway a lot of voters in one direction or another.

Did nobody really see this debate, or was it not that exciting.? DCR expected there to be much more chatter on this site about the debate.

Mulli was not really committed to watching it, thought he could catch blurbs on here.

Richardson was long winded, for Richardson anyway. He almost always went over his allotted 90 second time window. He also found it very, very hard to keep on the topic that was presented before him.
He did however speak with a candor that will resonate with a lot of people IMO. Not enough to do any major damage, but people will nod their head in agreement with that he said.
Dodd didn't really do anything for himself last night at all.
Biden made a couple of good points, and gave the best answer to all the questions all night when asked about if he can curtail his verbosity and verbal gaffes, he said, "Yes."
Edwards came across as polished, and answer the question about his $400 haircut pretty well.
This was a 2 man race with Obama and Clinton leading the way, and Kucinich being the changeup.
