There Was a Debate Last Night?

Or was it a free-for-all?  I don't know, but it was pretty much all the things I don't like about debates. Whatever skills make for good interviewers or news anchors don't seem to translate into good debate moderation, and I feel like this was a rehash of last week's debate in some ways. There just wasn't a good focus on issues.

Also our political media talking heads are mostly dumb and bad at it, even the smart ones.

Here's an example:




Elizabeth Warren would like a progressive to win the Democratic nomination more than she would like a Republican billionaire to buy it. What if it's about more than personalities, but ideas about the future of the country?

Just a thought.

Isn't Carville the one married to that Republican woman who just bought a two point two million dollar house in DC?

Yep, Mary Matalin. They say that at home they don't discuss politics, and from watching interviews with either of them, I believe they should extend this practice in general.
