I’d rather see a extended multi-hour go ‘round on CSPAN, if they could swing it. I think Terri Gross of NPR would be a great moderator in an extended format discussion.

[Austin Willard Wright]

Yeah, Paul is “a liberaltarian” who supports abolishing the IRS and wants to overturn Roe v. Wade. Tell me another one. Perhaps you are miffed that he is handling himself very well thus far.

[kidd]

McCain sounding a little more confident.

[Mr. Mojo]

I do wish one of the candidates would point out that there's nothing compassionate about growing the federal government.

Ditto that.

[ChessExpert]

Chrissy just gave a softball question to McCain.

Does everyone get a softball question?

[kabar]

Who cares? It is about getting the candidates side by side and asking them questions.
