I tried 3 times to watch that debate on tv. I think I finally saw it all, albeit it, in pieces. I had high hopes that format, questions from the general public would make for a better debate, but again I was disappointed. Too bad CNN chose the ones to air. The petty catfighting between Clinton and Obama was typical, the same old "ignore the question and say what I want" tactics - spouting rhetoric - bashing the opposition, no real answers or solutions were discussed. None of them seemed like visionaries to me, with any innovative ideas for our country. Lets just tell people what we think they want to hear. They seemed to just try and make themselves, as individuals and democrats, look better by making the republicans look worse. I'm very disappointed and disheartened. I have little hope that the republican debate will be much different.
