Tomorrows debate will be momentous
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 12:50 AM by Levgreee
Clinton and Obama, head-on-head, for two hours?? This could be a key deciding event.

Hopefully they don't spend more than 15 minutes on the snub...

1. Hopefully
They spend no time at all on the snub.

It will be a great event to watch!

I agree - may be historical
This one will be watched by enough people where it may make the difference in who carries Super Tuesday.

I can't wait!

3. I think a few arguments will go down into a showdown
one or both candidates may be struck silent or dumbfounded at a certain moment.

Right now I am feeling good about Obama, his views and claims have been consistently made, and he can always present them, even if not as coherent as he should. But, you never know.

8. I hope no jokes, no snipes
Strictly business, get in, get out, and get back on the campaign. He should immediately come out, shake her hand, and just apologize and be done with it. Be charming and engaging and treat her like a lady. Throw her totally off her game.

4. Without Edwards, it is going to be boring == not worth watching.

6. That's my feeling, too
They have no significant differences on issues and will spend the time making personal attacks.

7. I don't even care from this point forward.
I'll vote for local Dems and be done with it. Party's over.

5. I gather Obama is going to come out swinging.
Apparently John Edwards told him he is not tough enough.
