What? Another Debate?
Call it the latent activities programmer in me, but if I were to schedule a debate of the 10 Democratic candidates for president, I probably wouldn't put it on at such time that a substantial portion of it would conflict with the season premiere of Friends. That just seems like a wonderful way to have a bunch of people talking and not a lot of people listening. So for those of you who were more interested in Ross and Rachel instead of Howard and Wesley, here's a transcript.
Much has been made of the way Wesley Clark managed not to fall over himself in his first debate outing, but honestly. Before he decided to run for president, this fellow was a commentator for CNN. He's not entirely a babe in the woods when you put him in front of a camera. He was mostly ignored anyway, as eight of the other candidates decided to poke Howard Dean with sticks to see if they could make him cry. See, now, that's politics at its finest!
Also, and I don't to offend anyone here or pick a fight, but would it be too much to suggest at this juncture that we load up Kucinich, Sharpton, Graham and Moseley Braun with lovely parting gifts and show them the door? Six Democratic presidential contenders would be more than enough; ten is positively an embarrassment of riches. Of course, I heartily admit I could be wrong on which four should get the lovely parting gifts. If I am, the first thing I will do is apologize to President Moseley Braun. But, come now. Someone has to have figured out by now that he or she isn't going to take up residence in the White House. Time to start writing those memoirs, folks.
