I AM NOT INSANE!

Everyone else is insane, and trying to steal my magic baaaag.

[AgadorSparticus]

21. you're right. i take my vote back and recast it for no one.

[Endangered Specie]

35. what about the Buhh-Bi??

[youngred]

3. How about all

Color me disgusted with the moderation, time allotted to candidates and answers.

Wisconsin debates were far better

[Waverley_Hills_Hiker]

8. Yeah..Wisconsin was better...how about Larry King vs Kucinich, huh?

Definetly some bad vibes between him and Kucinich.....

...ended up w. King calling him a socialist, and the crowd booing King. That was quite a moment.

[youngred]

19. Well deserved Boos

I was apalled and furious.

I missed the Hockey game to watch that biased POS

[JoFerret]

20. Larry King was

his usual stupid ignorant self when he pooh-poohed DK's sound reasoning on health care issues.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

5. Kucinich lost the debate NOT because of himself

but because the moderators did NOT treat him seriously and because he DIDN'T take the opportunity to butt in as much as SHarpton did.

When King called his idea socialist, he snapped right back and called what we have now PREDATORY CAPITALISM...he was spot on and the crowd cheered him.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

13. I was furious...

that all the questioners at that table were acting as if Sharpton & Kucinich didn't even exist. Did Brownstein even look their way tonight???

If Kucinch and Sharpton has interrupted any more the would have been slammed for it.

Grrrrrr.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

17. It was shit

It was treated as though there were three moderators, two candidates and two commentators.

I've never much cared for Brownstien anyway...he's like a Dick Morris who hasn't admittedly jumped tha shark yet.

[Protagoras]

38. Agreed. I'm actually feeling an odd split now

I felt that Dk and JK were the two who actually gave details and seemed the most consistent. JK won because he kept the floor...but King did a huge disservice to everyone with his clearly biased attitude.

After tonight's debate I don't want to see a John-John debate...I want to see a Kucinich-Kerry debate. Make them actually contrast their two issues and personalities directly. Just don't let Larry King do the moderation. Maybe Al Franken can as a kickoff to Liberal radio :D

[Dagaz]

7. Bad showing by Kerry

Didn't answer the questions...and I've been Kerry from Day 1. Edwards is good on some points so I've been basically these two.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

14. Really. I thought he did what any politician SHOULD do in a debate

when thrown a LOADED question such as the "waffler" accusation...he framed his answer to his own strength..letting George Bush put him on the defensive via Brownstein or King is crap.

[ordentros]

25. kerry is a silly boy...

he voted for NAFTA. he now says that he will save us from it by including environmental and labor conditions in FUTURE trade agreements. he voted for bush's tax cuts. he voted for the patriot act. he voted for the iraq war. etc,... and he claims he is a step up.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

29. Yawn

Come up with a new repetitive dull answer

[OKNancy]

16. I thought he did fine

and I have NOT been for Kerry. You are probably looking at him with a too critical eye.

[Adelante]

31. I thought Kerry was good

He's better conversing this way than orating as he had been doing in earlier debates.

[JoFerret]

22. Kerry handled himself

extremely well. He was prepared and ready and came across as serious and eminently electable.

[Piperay]

40. Kerry did just fine...

they were all good as a matter of fact. :thumbsup:

[NNN0LHI]

10. George Boosh lost again n/t

[King of New Orleans]

11. Larry King

eom

[West Coast Democrat]

24. I agree....I t was Larry

But at least he's not as bad as Judy Woodruff

[BootinUp]

23. Anyone else notice Kerry Lost, AND Kerry Won?

[Renew Deal]

26. Haters and realists.

Kerry never had strong support here so I feel that the people marking him as the winner are being genuine.

[lams712]

27. Larry King

I think this guy, with no real discernable talent, is an OVERRATED DOUCHEBAG. He was a piss-poor moderator.

[RichM]

28. Larry King and the fucking stupid "journalists"

King being BY FAR the worst.

[mindfulNJ]

30. Larry King is the most overrated

pompous dullard I have ever seen on television...I've been saying that for years. He proved me right in spades tonight.

[GreenArrow]

33. Larry King is NOT a journalist

he's a news personality.

[mikehiggins]

34. Same as the rest like O'Rielly and Matthews and _ucker Carlson

they aren't journalists, they only play them on tv.

Not that the actual reporters covered themselves with glory either. Their hunger for some sort of conflict was so obvious it should have been embarrassing to their publishers.

I think the press lost this debate

And its about #$)(*%)#$(% time!

[GreenArrow]

37. the press did lose this debate

and it's not the only one. Unfortunately, the same press will be the one who covers and reports on it.

[GreenArrow]

32. .

[Adelante]

36. I thought Edwards needed to knock it out of the park tonight

And he didn't, so in that sense he lost. But I enjoyed the debate overall and thought they were all very good. I was a proud Dem tonight. I liked the format a whole lot, too.

[genius]

39. Kerry did better than Edwards on the death penalty issue.

However, Edwards's focus on a hate crime lessened the damage.
