Debates

I know have seen both the Presidential and Vice Presidential debates and wasn't impressed with either. The candidates dodge the issues. I constantly hear about pork-barrel spending, what does that even mean? Who came up with that term. I thought McCain took control of the debate and I enjoyed his little stab at Obamas pre-presidential seal. When I was watching it in the NBC headquarters, the room broke out in OOOOHS! I can't but noticining all four candidates mispronouncing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's name. It certainly is a mouthful but its a name they should all be practicing at home. I think Jim Lehrer could have been more strict with McCain, because he interrupted, interjected and fillabustered, but at least he was passionate. Watching the Vice Presidential debate, I concluded that both candidates love Israel; but Palin just got her first passport only months ago? Ever since I attended the panel on science and how it affects politics, I can't get stem cell research out of my head. Has it even crossed the candidates minds?
