I really was expecting more from Sebelius.
Very unimpressive to me. I would rather have heard Biden give the response.

1. If you're an Obama supporter then she must have supported Clinton
and if you're a Clinton supporter she must have supported Obama. Am I incorrect?

2. I can forgive the tone
and I can forgive the substance, or lackthereof

but I can't forgive the absolute slow as a handicapped snail's pace of her speech. It was like her teleprompter was being run by a gerbil on a wheel.

9. I think she must be a heavy smoker.
She seemed to speak slowly bcause of lack of breath. The tone, which I at first felt was not strong enough, I later felt might be a bonus to independents.

11. BOTOX
That's what I think when I see a woman whose face does not show any expression.

12. I think this was meant for "senior citizen" voters who tend to watch these things.

5. Most of the time it's that way.
The rebuttal should be given in front of a receptive audience.

7. maybe that's what people in certain parts of the country want

Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 10:43 PM by ashling

10. At first I thought her teleprompter was broke. I doubt the 'barely interested anyway' even made it
past the first 3 minutes.

She must have won an election to become governor but damn, I would have hated to sat through 'those debates'...

13. I actually LOVE the idea that we had a competent, boring speaker
Given the circus that characterizes the candidates these days, I think this was exactly the message and visuals that the Dems needed to show.
