In Which I Kind Of Live Blog The Viva Las Vegas Debate
I’m watching with a slight delay via DVR. God bless technology! However, my wife is not keen on stopping, starting, rewinding etc, so it’s still mostly live blogged…kinda.
Did anyone see the premeire show of Project Runway? The designers were given access to $50,000 worth of fabric and told to come up with something that showed who they were. A lingerie designer did a baby doll dress that looked like lignerie and got trashed for it. Others created dull, unimaginative clothes. One woman showed the judge exactly what she was like and the model could not walk in it. This debate is much like that show. Obama, Clinton and Edwards are dull and uninspired – they look, sound and act like politicians. Biden, Richardson and Dodd sound like they care. Kucinich is the only truly authentic one up there, but too many people will trip over him.
Sadly, we’ll be saddled with the unimaginitve politicians who look the part and will do nothing differently.
Obama’s gonna be a new kind of politician! HOT DOG!
Wolf’s lost control already!
Hillary is getting her ass kicked. This is a fucking cage match. Edwards stare will be the front page thus far.
I’m thrilled that some of this hierarchical “front runner” stuff is coming to the forefront. This should be a primary in which America gets to see everyone who’s running not just the top three folks the press ordains as worthy.
Biden sounded great, Dodd sounded great, Richardson’s sucking up again – I like everybody except the top three.
I (HEART) Kucinch! – “I won’t vote for someone who uses war as a policy tool”. Oh….*swoon*
GRRR – Driver’s license question – Blitzer is just looking for the sound bite. Why is he shouting down Kucinich? Worst. Moderator. Ever.
Did I hear the question right – “Mr. Kucinch – tell me what you hate about unions.”
Biden – “Show me your budget and I’ll tell you what you value”. Amen. Sadly, everyone on the stage to still value war (Kucinich, excepted)
Richardson – Isn’t sucking up anymore. Human rights more important than US Security. That’s an amazing statement and completely true – the US should practice what they preach.
Oh great! Obama won’t let terrorist get nuclear weapons! YIPPEE! He wins! (/sarcasm)
**boredom and hugging my wife**
Why, I ask you, WHY does Kucinich get the biggest applause and the least respect?
(Here’s an idea – Let’s have a townhall meeting with our talking heads)
Obama slams Hillary as playing with numbers like Romney or Giuliani and you want to trust him to not saber-rattle with Iran?
