Don't tell the nine D's, but they are making a huge mistake holding debates in front of Black partisan audiences like this.

They find themselves playing to this way-out crowd, trying to do applause lines and laugh lines, and they are forgetting completely this is not the real world, and this audience represents people who will vote for ANY democrat candidate.

It's not playing well to the rest of American ... anyone stupid enough to watch that is, ''' present company excepted ... we're all doing research (ha)

The thundering hoardes have been fed, and the dishes washed. What did I miss?

(My cat was accosting me earlier, wanting his food bowl topped off. He got up on the desk and laid down on my "freeping" arm so I couldn't type. Had to feed him or lose circulation.)

Great poem! That's what goes on at my house, with three of them circuling in the morning trying to trip me (as if they will get the food faster if I drop it).

I survived the Democratic Debates and all I got was this lousy headache.

This evening I was dishonored to attend the Democratic Presidential Debate at the fabulous Fox Theatre in Detroit, Michigan.

I was surrounded by 5,000 Democrats. To make things worse I was also in the same room at the 9 candidates, Carl Levin, Debbie Stabenaugh, Carolyn Cheeks-Kilpatrick, Debbie Granholm and TERRI MCAULIFF!!!

Fox News Reporter Kelly Wright was the MC. He told us that we had to clap loudly when the show started, and then to control ourselves during the show.

There is an irony here. The debates were carried on Fox News, but you can't get Fox News on local Detroit Cable. You have to have a dish. Kelly asked how many folks want Fox News to be carried in Detroit and he was met with a round of Boos. It's obvious that Detroit doesn't want Fox in their homes.

Kelly then introduced all the VIPs in the audience. Jennifer Granholm, Debbie Stabenaugh, and Terry McAuliff got the loudest applause and standing ovations. It was puke making.

He told a couple of jokes and sang a little and then the show was on.

I noticed that I was sitting next to a John Kerry supporter, a couple of Edwards supporters, Dean, Braun and Sharpton.

The debate was on. I took vociferous notes, but I am not going to bore you with every question and answer, so if you would like a specific impression of a question, feel free to ask.

I will mention the highlights.

Carol Mosely-Braun is a liar. She stated that she left her office with dignity and that her reputation remains intact. If her reputation is that of a scoundrel and a thief, then yes, her reputation is intact.

The audience HATED Joe Lieberman. There was no clapping for him. Only booing and heckles. I don't know if it is because the audience was anti-semetic or that Lieberman supported the war. The audience was highly anti-war, and totally anti-Bush.

Shaption was a hit. When he blasted the Patriot Act and said that he would negotiate with Arafat, the audience was spell bound. Then when he stated that this election was a 'Battle between the Christian Right and the Right Christians" the crowd lept to their feet in a deafening applause. I haven't heard applause like that since I saw Styx and the Babies at the Cow Palace in 1979. ( in my notes it states..."I am surrounded by idiots and morons")

Kusinich is a total lightweight. He said that he wanted to start the Department of Peace to bring non-violence to America. He stated that last month Detroit had a slaughter of 300 people.

My friend and I looked at each other and said " did we miss something? When did we lose 300 people? Ok, Dennis, whatever you say.

My impressions of the candidates in person..... Kerry is scary. He is HUGE. He is even scarier in person. He has no presence.

Edwards... Pretty boy. The gals loved him. Even my friend said that he had a nice smile. I told her that it was the smile of a snake.

Sharpton is a buffoon, but he was definately a crowd pleaser. Most people said that they liked Sharpton.

Kusinich is a freak. He had a large following there, since he is from Ohio. He thinks that we need to give 12,000,000 students 'free' tuition. He said that we need to give 'free kindergarden' to 3-5 year olds, therefore saving parents $7000. Where is Dennis going to get all this ' free' money?

Braun is annoying, Lieberman tries but he just can't get any respect, but it was Dean and Clarke that are evil.

Dean is Frankestien. I swear that his head had to have been sewn on. It's not the right head for the body. He's evil and mean and I want to smack in him the face with an oar...

There is a reason why Dean looks so stiff.

He has been fitted for a Democrat backbone prosthesis..........an overused device for the spineless weasel!
