Are the Republicans going to allow the living at their next debate?
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 12:14 PM by underpants
I wathed the rerun of the debate last night...well about 15 minutes of it. Aside from one laugh that Huckabee got (the highway joke) I couldn't tell if there was a "live" audience there. Geeesh what a bunch of stiffs. I kept hitting the rewind on the TiVo to make sure that I had seen an audience there. A lot of their applause lines just laid there surrounded by dead air. It was funny to see Romney, for one, not have the filler of crowd response to cover up his vapid talking points.

Oh and why is Ron Paul allowed into the debates. He is pulling single digits but he gets to be on TV? No wonder the Kucinich fans were so pissed. THAT is blatant media controlling if you ask me.

1. Good Point on Kucinich
Love him or hate him, Ron Paul does draw a crowd. But WTF, so does Kucinich!

What a shame to not see more of him. SO many good ideas.

He got sniped in the worse way.

2. There's people there, but my sense is
that the repubs in general despise their choices this time around.

3. that will be their working excuse if the Dems
score a landslide electoral victory in November ...

Aren't they going to put yet another "Gay Marriage" amendment on the ballots?
