They're politicians. They NEVER directly answer a question. It's always "I think the real question is...." or, "The fact of the matter is...."
They should all be wired up & when they start rambling, just give 'em a jolt and say "please answer the question that was just asked."
I Ike the idea of juicing them to get them to answer the question. But seriously. Why watch the debate if it’s mostly campaign speeches. Answer the blinking questions and debate it.
