CNN Debates

I was out of the country for a week. One thing I didn't miss was another say nothing pissing contest between candidates - live on CNN. Whether its Barack and Hillary arguing about "Bill bashing" or McCain and Mitt dissecting timetable comments it doesn't really matter because no one cares! Get over yourselves and try to have a discussion a level above the second grade. What's next - a double dog dare?

Haven't any of these idiots figured out that the public wants change in not just how the country is supposed to work but in how our presidential candidates conduct themselves?

Tell us what you can do, not what someone else can't do based upon a comment they made to a reporter from The Onion in 1988. Do any of them have actual ideas to put forward. Seriously, I could spout off the same crap that all of them say and be just as credible - "We should balance the budget, cut spending, have affordable healthcare, and make friends with the rest of the world. And I'm the candidate to bring about all of these changes." Please, stop saying that! Tell us how, with your leadership, that is going to happen.

Ron Paul is starting to make more sense than anyone. Don't make me throw away my vote! Have a real debate - say something of substance. Let Lou Dobbs moderate. I can't take anymore of these vanilla CNN hosts. They act like they're auditioning for Entertainment Tonight. What's next? "Hi this is Mark McGrath and Mary Hart live from CNN Headquarters with tonight's Presidential Debate!"
