SO what your saying is Wallace wasted the only opportunity we will probably have to hear what thesse guys have to say on substantive issues on a national stage.

Finding out these candidates positions on various things takes moments. You can generally go their websites, just do a simple search or listen to a few of their campaign speeches to find out what their positions are on the issues.

What we need to find out is how these candidates hold up under fire. Hussein is going to throw hundreds of millions of dollars of negative advertising at our eventual nominee, and the press is going to play nothing but "gotcha" journalism when interviewing them - so what matters now is whether they can take the fire, how they respond to it, can they take a hostile situation and turn it in their favor, etc.

I think Fox did a pretty good job. The debate was actually extremely lively and gave us a chance to see how our candidates handle pressure and scrutiny on the fly.

Its not about how they handle the pressure - that doesn't matter at all. Its about the headlines the media choose to write.

The question is the headline.
