What did everyone think?
I think my favorite moment was Clint Eastwood interacting with "Obama" in an empty chair. "Mitt Romney cant do that to himself." Classic. |

I watched Walker, Ryan, and nominee Christie, and of course the real reason Clint. Wonder who picked Clint? ?

Seth, I would have thought you would be a little disappointed. After all the hype from the left, we got all those Republicans together in the same place for three days, and not one little old lady in a wheelchair got pushed off the edge of the stage.

I like Mitt's punch line....."Obama promised to lower the oceans, and heal the earth. I just want to help your family". No soaring rhetoric, just a down to business speech which of course is what we need now.
Can't wait to see 2016. Going to go this weekend. |

Ditto, I'm not much on conventions, but the debates can be good entertainment. Usually short on substance, but they sometimes have their moments. |

With Biden in the debate...it will be HILARIOUS!!! He is "GAFF-TASTIC"!
With Ryan's knowledge of the Federal budget (well, if there was a budget), he will make poor old uncle Joe look pathetic. |

I'm also looking forward to the debates, but that's looking past Charlotte...and it promises to be a hoot after the classy show Mitt put on.
As for Clint, anyone who thought "yawnnn, nothing new" didn't listen very carefully. I hope to be in that kind of shape at 82! I really think people will look back in 10 years and remember where they were when this all happened. |

I agree, but if the moderators names for the VP debates are similar to those I have seen for the presidential debates, budget questions will probably not even get asked. Still, in a battle of wits, Biden is unarmed. |

Good point Dave. I have heard the "moderators" are very well balanced. Two men, two women, one gay, one hispanic, one African-American, etc, etc, etc. They all just coincidentally happen to be very, very LIBERAL!!
I am hoping the audience helps moderate the moderators and voice their concern when the moderators spin the questions. Remember when Gingrich was in the debates and he gave it right back to the so-called moderators. I am really surprised Romney/Ryan let this slide, and don't asked for a fair moderator panel. But, I supposed there is a method to their madness.....I hope. |
