Kerry told Koppel where to put his stupid ass question; then showed real
class by allowing Braun to finish her answer.

5. That's the second time Kerry got my attention this week.
Being the underdog has its privileges.

Friggin freepers protesting the debate! These insane lunatics should be jailed or sent to the ER for a psych evaluation tonite.

2. I was just going to start a thread
No Kerry fan here, but he's had a hell of a debate.

6. M-Braun was talking about the need for Congress to declare war
Koppell tried to cut her off and move on to Kerry. Kerry told him to wait and deferred to M-Braun. Very nice to allow Carol to finish her statement, which she did succinctly.

7. He was asking some dumb ass questions
about whether Kerry would jump out of the race if he didn't like the way he looked in the polls.

Both Kucinich and Kerry went off on Ted. It was extremely gratifying.

They told Koppel that people wanted to hear about real issues, not some dumb questions and gossip.

15. I also liked Sharpton's response
when Koppel was asking about who'd drop out because they weren't raising much money. "The people don't want candidates with money, they want candidates with ideas."

Kucinich snapped back pretty well on that one too.

10. I'll watch the debate later for the actual question. Can U imagine
a candidate telling the moderator to stuff the question up his ass. First time in history.

Kerry is taking no prisoners.

14. I like the fact that the candidates are not tolerating wussy questions
any longer. The media will have to start asking questions on the real issues.

I'm not a Kucinich fan, but this guy has been real impressive lately. Kucinich was awesome in Florida and great tonight.

16. By golly, I think they've got it!

They have figured out that we don't want to see Dems pushed around by stupid-assed questions and innuendo and they are firing back! This is the time to push for answers on issues!

No more pink pink tu-tu Democratics!
