S*** on you Gloria "It's only Romney and Giuliani lets vote now" Borger and Bill "I love Iraq and neocons" Bennett .... we still mopped up. At least Jamal Simmons didn't penalize people for disagreeing with them.

S*** on you CNN, who actually had some jeri curled white boy saying that the NAU is entirely made up, and all talk of the international highway is made up.... I hope they lock you in a room with Lou Dobbs.

S*** on you CNN in general, for giving 50% of the time to Romney and Giuliani, and 40% of what was left to Huckleberry and McLame.

The revolution still dominated the whole affair from the boots on the ground to the signs around town to the post debate polling. Bite me CNN!

I gotta say I thought Huck came out of it very good....I have a problem with electing a preacher but he may be striking a cord with the fair tax plan and his ease and humor on stage...He impressed me last night.

I watched about 45 minutes of it last night, and I remembered why I don't like watching those things. Like GTS said, about half was Rudy rattling off statistics about how great NY, NY was when he was there and Romney talking about how he would need to consult with many different advisors before he could answer any of the questions. I don't know how anybody could support Romney, he hardly answered anything.

What's Rudy supposed to talk about? How much lower the taxes were in Nebraska when he was Mayor? He's applying for a job. Past experience is something that's taken into account....well, it least for the Republican side.

I'm not sure you want to go down that road...[cough] George W. Bush[/cough]...and I'm about as Republican as you can get...

It looks like there is some actual truths in the polls if you throw out the Paul numbers.

Did anyone even rad the last question? i.e. Who is the snappiest dresser? ha ha. You know it is an internet scam when RP wins that one.

If that's so, then Republicans have some rather poor choices.

A Mayor, few governors, and a few businessmen. On the Dem side you essentially have Obama, Clinton, and Edwards. One has NO experience. One uses her husband's experience as her own....but doesn't want to take ownership of the failures. One was a f'n slimeball ambulance chaser.

You miss my point. Rudy should talk about that. But I'm sure it should not be half of the debate. There's only so many times I can listen to Rudy explain how he cleaned up New York City. Good on you, Rudy, what did some of you other guys do?

None of this really means a whole lot to me, I was watching for entertainment value. I always vote "Issues only" in the primaries.

Oh, by the way nice job on rigging that link to automatically vote for Ron Paul. Everyone who clicked on it is now part of the Revolution.

Now you'll be part of those high numbers Paul has. Yeah, that's accurate. 01-wingedeagle

Dems at DU do this all the time. They "DU" a poll showing their candidate or issue leading, and when it doesn't turn out that way come election time, they ***** and scream about election fraud.

Not sure if you picked up on this or not, but I ws being critical of the practice. I mean everyone already knows that online polls are useless, add in http tricks and they mean even less.

Who can really say who won when people are being tricked into voting for him?

I picked up on it. That comment really wasn't directed at you.

Gotcha, sarcasm still doesn't transfer well over the internet. Maybe with IPv6...

no matter how nice of a person or competent a person is, if they dont believe in evolution and say that their theology degree from ouachita baptist makes them the only one to understand the war on terror, then i cant vote for them. end of discussion.

One issue which they talked about last night and I had a problem with was the space program.

While I agree that sending a human to Mars or the moon is probably not the best option right now. I didn't hear anyone's idea on what we should be doing. The space station is interesting, but we could be sending tons of robotic probes out to do missions of discovery for the price we are paying keeping that think floating around the planet. These probes are safer, cheaper and we arguably get more benefit than a human mission. Plus we could actually find out if going to Mars (or anywhere else) is worth it or not.

Senator Obama and Senator Clinton have experience, as does former Senator Edwards.

Find the last time a mayor was elected president. You'll have to go back pretty far.

Incorrect.

The link is:

Code:

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/debates/scorecard/youtube.debate.112807/

results.html?userpick_q7=cand_5&userpick_q6=cand_5&userpick_q5=cand_5&userpick_q4=cand_1&

userpick_q3=cand_5&userpick_q2=cand_5&userpick_q1=cand_5

It's merely displaying the choice set, not adding to the count. Not the params in the URL are only display params, there is no vote action taking place.

***Bourgeois_Rage*** · 11-30-2007 07:47 AM

Hmm, guess so. Well the page was telling me that I voted for Ron Paul almost across the board, when I hadn't thought I did. My apologies.
