1. they criticized the seating arrangement

but I actually liked it. having the top tier candidates in the middle makes sense. No sense to Kucinich being up there sorry but Gravel should be to the side (if not sitting the audience).

3. I support Kucinich...

he's only shoved to the side because he's shoved to the side.

Edwards did a fine job tonight also.

I don't know why Clinton and Obama are so highly rated when they don't talk about the issues in debates.

4. That's because the corporate interests that are giving them

a lot of money want them there.

[MadBadger]

2. Well, they were the winners.

[Cleita]

5. Yes, money talks.

Honesty and sincerity walks. Sorry that I'm so cynical.

[MadBadger]

8. No, they actually did a very good job tonight in what they said

I thought only Biden helped himself out of everybody else

6. The winner of the debate SHOULD be meaningless

The outcome of these celebrity beauty pagents shouldn't matter.

What should matter is what policies each one stands for THOSE should be emphasized by the media and people should vote accordingly. Basically the media is saying vote for Obama or vote for Clinton if you support anyone else you're a loser. This is ludicrious.

7. Of course, Blitzer wouldn't let anyone else get a word in edgewise. nt

9. yep.
