A five year old's observations on the first Democratic debate —from Daily Kos
After the response to my five year old daughter's original musings on the last Republican debate (http://www.dailykos.com/...), she was eager to share her thoughts on the first Democratic debate. She actually rushed us home from dinner at a local Indian restaurant to catch the opening statements... leaving her Tikka Masala relatively untouched.
After opening statements, her first comment was, "This debate show is too much of a grown up thing."
I guess the implication was that the Republican debate was not a grown up affair.
I said, "Yes it is honey. Yes it is."
I began to ask her about each individual candidate.
First up Sanders: That guy looks like a grandpa. Is he a grandpa?
O'Malley: He looks sad and his voice is trying to be too loud.
Clinton: I like her. I like her lipstick (sidebar, it actually looked like she wasn't wearing very much). I like her earrings and I like her cheeks. Her voice is loud and clear.
Webb: His hair is too short and his voice is kind of quiet and whiny.
Sanders: What is that dot on his coat? (I guess she noticed that it was a dot instead of an American flag pin. I had to say I didn't know. Does anyone else know so I can share with her tomorrow?)
