Democratic Debate . . . Entertaining?


There was a vast difference between the recent Republican and Democratic debates. I was impressed with the collectiveness and eloquence of most of the Republican candidates, especially Mike Huckabee, but the Democratic Debate on Tuesday, resembled a high school debate team free-for-all, and at times, amazingly slipped into the middle school level. In desperate attempts to viciously attack each other while inflating their own resume’s, every candidate displayed an excellent ability to completely fumble questions, confuse not only the audience, and questioners, but at times, apparently even themselves. It became almost entertaining.

Most candidates enjoyed bashing President Bush for making decisions they decry as erroneous, but the American people must realize that many Democratic candidates once sided with the President on many of those issues until the going got tough.

I honestly got the impression that some of the candidates were distracted by something. Maybe it was the truth.
