How many of you are going to watch the debates tonight? I know I am...
I ost likely will watch at least part of the debate, if you can call it that. Having a few moments to state and justify your position. In a true debate, the opponents do not attack each other to gain points, but challenge the opponents to support their position. the only "strategy" involeed in these presidential debates to who comes out with the best sound bite.
I will wait for the edited highlights and read the various news comments ... I hate watching politicians fighting to get their prepared soundbites out there
Yes. I struggled listening to the double debates. Now we can see the entire field. I believe it is critical for Biden but I expect his silly mistakes will be the beginning of the end for him. Somewhat disappointed that the black vote leans towards him just because he was VP to Obama.
I will join Democrats to watch the debates at a restaurant with a big screen TV.
I know I'll be at work...
I did hear something Warren said- along the lines of "Don't back a candidate you don't believe in just because you're afraid of Trump." I took that as "Don't worry about whether I can win the general election, I just want the nomination."
Except, yeah, THE most important thing is the election!!! So, damn right I'm thinking about who can beat Trump! And I am throwing my weight behind someone who's running to the center NOW, not a so-called "progressive" who's going to lose in November.
In 2016 Democrats figured Trump couldn't possibly win, and look where we are. Now they figure he can't possibly win again, so they're wrangling among themselves to win the left wing of the party. They NEED to win the center of the nation. When did my party become such blithering idiots?
