I have to say, Bear, it was very hard to watch. Animosity, dishonesty, pure nonsense all baked into a cake made of caca. Made Cassandra's kitty litter cake look downright delicious. Boy did I cringe when one of the dipshits asking questions said to Edwards "How does a white man compete with these two historic candidates?" at which point you could hear Hillary say "Poor John." as if she meant "Yeah, you don't even belong on this stage."

Of course there was also the highlight of an audience member yelling at the suits asking questions that they were "race baiting" and I guess he didn't notice it was Hillary and Barack that had actually done (and will probably continue to do) the race baiting to get us to that point...he was on the right track though, the sharks did smell the blood and went for it. The whole thing made me feel sick and not at all a part of this insane process...and maybe that was the point.

Anyway, I am truly sorry for telling anybody to watch it, I'm sorry for posting this political bullshit, I'm sorry for sounding negative and disgusted...

Kucinich was the lucky one last night, he would have added nothing to that as the show was obviously Barack and Hillary and that will be the show going forward...it's what the media wants and what the people want I guess.

One thing I will tell you guys, in case anybody cares or is interested, most of the people who come up after the broadcast to ask for autographs from the candidates are plants by the campaigns. The idea is to make the candidates look like they have something to do, look popular, and enhance the image that they did well in the debate as the cameras linger on them when it's over...not that it's a big deal but it is sort of funny and maybe sad that everything is so staged...I don't know just thought I'd point that out. Theatre of the absurd...
