OC Register ^ | 9/1/2010 | Dena Bunis, Washington Bureau Chief

Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer and her Republican opponent Carly Fiorina will square off Wednesday night in the only debate scheduled so far in a race that polls show is a toss up between the two women.

The hour-long event at St. Mary’s College in Moraga begins at 7 p.m. It will be televised on CBS affiliates up and down the state, including on KTTV in Los Angeles. The debate is being sponsored by the San Francisco Chronicle and KQED public radio and will be streamed live on both sponsors’ web sites. C-Span is also televising the forum.

75% of the farm subsidies go to big farms.
100% of the TARP money went to big companies.

C’mon Fiorina DON’T BE ANOTHER STATIST.

Yes "Carla" is one of the panelists:

"A panel of journalists questioning the candidates includes moderator Randy Shandobil, political editor for KTVU; Carla Marinucci, senior political writer for the San Francisco Chronicle; Scott Shafer, host of KQED's "The California Report Magazine;" and Pilar Marrero, senior political reporter and blogger for La Opinion."

OK now family farms should avoid the estate tax? What?
How about family businesses?

OK Fiorina took a good tack here, discussing central valley issues.

Two boring people arguing about how little they will leave us alone

What do you want them to do? Juggle? Geez, Louise. This is serious stuff and is not meant for entertainment except maybe for political junkies like ourselves. Overall Fiorina is wiping the floor with Boxer and that grade is awarded especially in light of the lefty moderator and the panel.

And just now again the moderator is trying to tip the scale for Boxer by doing his own follow-up, cutting her off when Fiorina is answering his extra question demanding a simple yes-or-no answer.

Good thing the moderator remembered to take off his “Boxer for Senate” button before showtime.

Good response to “no guns to people on No-Fly List”: It’s a poorly maintained list, so let’s not take away Constitutional rights.

I said this on another thread.

SHE HAD A NORMAL JOB. SHE HAS WORKED IN A JOB WITH RESPONSIBILITY.

And again, Fiorina is kicking her ass. And it just gets better.

“This isn’t a debate, it’s a attack piece. I haven’t heard one tough question for Boxer yet?”

This moderator owes Fiorina an apology...he is rude when cutting her off and dripping with courtesy with the senator.

Oh yeah, Marinucci.

She’s a big time lefty that writes for SFGate, aka, “SFHate”

They would be out of business if it weren’t for all the Palin hit pieces they write.

Carla Marinucci is nothing but a DNC shill.

Google her name and read her articles.

Despite the odds, Fiorina is kicking Bouncer’s ass all over the place.
