60 seconds is not enough (re: The Debate)

[jillan]

I don't know how the rest of you felt about last nite's format, but personally I thought it was awful. It really didn't give the viewers a whole lot of information. Yes all the dems did great, I would be proud to support almost all of them. But we didn't really learn much. And I felt that the Dems seemed frustrated as they kept getting cut off by Brian Williams.

I heard some pundit last nite (Carville? not sure) say that it would be better if they had each debate about a different subject.
I think that is a great idea. That way we could really hear where each candidate stands on an issue.

Lo and behold, I was just on Biden's site and saw this petition:

I think it is a good place to start.

WTF? Quit pandering and positioning and just tell me what the fuck you're going to do to fix all the shit that's been gone wrong at the hands of Caligula and his band of thieves!!!
