First 38 minutes: WORST. DEBATE. EVER.
Brian Williams and Tim Russert have been asking questions only dealing with all the bullshit flying around in the media about Hillary people attacking Obama people and vice-versa.

Not ONE single question yet about any serious issue affecting the American people.

Meanwhile, confronted with such provocative distraction, the candidates all spend several seconds dismissing the fluff and then waxing into boring, heard-it-all-before-too-many-times stump speeches completely devoid of any specific information of any value whatsoever.

WORST. DEBATE. EVER.

No policy questions so far, just digging up junk making us, as a party, look bad. :(

6. The media is as lame
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 09:46 PM by Beststash
as GW Bush. Instead of asking anything about the issues they are trying their best to make everything a soap opera.

MSNBC sucks!

Peace
