I don't believe in conspiracies, but these answers are too pat to think that there wasn't SOME rehearsal, either with the other candidates or with the press. "Gender card?" "asbestos pantssuit?" Come on.

If there wasn't anything rehearsed then it says the other Dems really are dumb and dumber, like the coach who doesn't make any half-time adjustments.

Well, at any rate, her “cackle-disgronificator” was working well last night.

As Malveaux said in an interview about her position as an African American journalist, “When I think of my grandparents and I think about the time of segregation, I think what would they think of their grandchild sitting in that seat, that CNN seat in that small little [White House] briefing room? There [are] only about 20 seats and I’m sitting in one of them. It’s so important that I feel like I’m representing people who couldn’t even imagine that we could be in that kind of position.”

You're a journalist. Your role is to report; not to "represent" people or some ethnicity. Sheesh.

"Near the end of the debate, the former First Lady even managed to poke fun at the claim that she can't give a straight answer, thanks to an audience member who asked if she likes diamonds or pearls."

Wonder what are the odds that was one was planted?

I watched a few snippets of the “debate”. All I could think was:

We are a free and industrious people, socialist drivel does not become us.

Well, I wish they had asked the Commodities Scam Queen the "human rights or national security question" first. When Dodd(?) emphatically quoted the oath and picked national security, after a couple of the others had waffled, you could see the CSQ nod her head when Dodd (?) was answering. I got the impression she liked his answer best and so when it came to be her turn, she echoed it.

To me the most amazing statement of the night (and it went completely uncovered, even unnoticed, by the media) was Obama saying that it’s time to make sure that “our divisions end at the water’s edge”, and then went on to say that therefore George Bush should bring all our troops home.

Incredible. Incredible that he said it. Incredible that nobody noticed it.

The debate ended with the 2007 version of the infamous “boxers or briefs” questions put to President Clinton in 1994.

“Do you prefer diamonds or pearls?” UNLV student Maria Parra Sandoval asked Clinton.

She happily hedged.

“I prefer both.”

http://foundation.unlv.edu/casestudies/scholarships.html

Honors College Student Strives to Create Positive Change

Maria Parra-Sandoval didn’t take it lightly when her mother told her at the age of six that she and her family were leaving their small Mexican village to live in the most powerful and privileged country in the world.

“I knew it must be very important,” she recalls, remembering their month-long journey across the Mexican-American border.

She understood quickly that to succeed in this country as an immigrant wouldn’t come easy. So, in third grade she bought her first dictionary and resolved to learn English.

“It was hard adjusting to a second language,” said Parra-Sandoval. “I knew that I would have to work twice as hard.”

She took that lesson to heart and is still working twice as hard – at everything she does.

Along with her siblings, she was the first in her family to get a high school diploma, graduating third in her class at Valley High School with a 4.6 GPA.

Her success in high-school paved the way for several private and public college scholarships sending her off to UNLV as a student in the privileged Honors College. Today, she is one of about 700 students who participate in this prestigious program and is one of the 1,700 students who rely on private scholarship support from UNLV each year.

“Scholarships provide financial relief to students who need it – if they apply they have decided that they can do it,” she said.

In February 2005, Parra-Sandoval was one of 50 students selected nationally to attend the Public Policy and Leadership Conference at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. This spring, she will serve as the political communications intern for Sen. Harry Reid in our nation’s capitol.

Her drive and dedication to succeed for herself and for her family is matched by her strong desire to create positive change through community service.

“A cause is fought in a way that you show others through actions,” she says.

And so, staying true to her word, Parra-Sandoval helped establish Kappa Delta Chi, the first Latina Sorority in the state of Nevada whose main emphasis is to help the local Latina community.

Parra-Sandoval is an immigrant on a lifelong quest to become a U.S. citizen, a dream that will soon become a reality. Although the process has been a long one, the experience has piqued her interest in our country’s legal system and influenced her career choice.

Dreams beyond UNLV include both a law degree and a master’s in public policy from Harvard so that she can someday practice immigration law.

“My parents have always said that I am the American dream, but I believe that above that, I am their dream come true.”

Maria Parra-Sandoval was born on June 25, 1985 in Nayarit, Mexico. She has lived in
Las Vegas, Nevada for thirteen years and has attended the valley’s public schools. She
graduated from the prestigious International Baccalaureate Program at Valley High School.
Maria’s leadership experiences have been primarily gained in service projects. She has
been a recruiter, mentor and facilitator for the Annual Latino Youth Leadership Conference.
She volunteered in the America Reads Program and helped establish Kappa Delta Chi
Sorority Inc., the first Latina community-service based sorority in Nevada. She has held
several leadership positions within this organization. Maria has also received a Leadership
Scholarship from the UNLV Student Government.
Maria has experience in the political field as well. In high school, she was active in
voter registration, volunteered in a congressional campaign, and interned for Clark County.
In college, she was selected to attend the Fifth Annual Public Policy and Leadership
Conference at Harvard. She is also a Fellow of the National Latina Leadership Institute
Summer Program in Washington, D.C. and was selected to intern in the office of the
Honorable Harry Reid in Spring 2006.
Maria is a dedicated community leader and has come to understand that part of her
role in higher education is to lift others. She believes it is a social responsibility of educated
adults, involved community leaders, and professionals to give back to their community.

“I’m beginning a conversation with you, with America.”

“Let’s talk. Let’s chat. Let’s start a dialogue.”

“Let the conversation begin. I have a feeling its going to be very interesting.”

It appears that CNN’s marching orders to Wolf (or shall we call him “Wussy Cat”?) not to be tough on Hilly (and the possible fear of Arkancide) worked!!

When she ends up “debating” her Republican opponent (unless it is McVain), she might break a nail!!

I could swear I heard someone whisper a ‘reminder’ of the question she was supposed to ask when she lost track.

She had obviously lost her train of thought and even closed her eyes trying to remember the question when I heard someone whisper ‘social security’. She went on to ask about her concerns, as a baby boomer, whether social security will be there for them. (paraphrased)

Did anyone else hear that exchange?
