Republican Debate

Mitt Rommey thinks answering questions posed by UTube snowmen undignified although he claims he hadn't watched it. I find it hard to believe that he wouldn't watch the Democratic debate to assess the type to questions and answers given by potential contenders. He has said has a scheduling conflict and cannot attend the September 17th debate. Rudy Giuliani seems to have a scheduling conflict too. CNN says it may reschedule.

The UTube type questions scare the candidates. I admit there were a couple in the democratic debate which I considered inappropriate. For example, asking them to criticise something about the person to their left. Never the less, I like to see politicians put on the spot and liked the flavor of the debate.

I found the Democratic debate earlier this year interesting, the Republican boring and closed. I was surprised by the difference in tenor There is little doubt that a Democrat will be elected - the Republicans can't get it together. Will it be Hillary? I think she gained major ground in the last debate.
