Estimate how many people will watch the debate tonight
The South Caroline debate brought in 4.9 million viewers. That was a modern-day debate record.

How many million will watch this debate tonight?

7. And what the heck does that say about our country?
I read over in the lounge that people are going to watch Lost, and catch the highlights or rerun of the debate. WHY? It's the first head on debate between the two, as we come down to ST.

I just don't get this country. It's not like the puke snore fest, if the last debate was any indicator - this one is going to be very informational and very exciting to watch.

10. just think -a proper debate brought to you not by the media

but a university setting moderated by impartial university professors. proper questions, decorum,and with strict time limits.

instead we get a vh1 production of the real world or some other stupid reality show that has it`s only plot line is to see who can be the biggest loser or winner.

i`m watching law and order suv ot tmc

12. With two corporate candidates taking the questions
The choices absolutely stink.

We are not even halfway through the primaries and it's been narrowed down to two CEO candidates.
