You must not think much of your own choice of candidates as a debater.
That's the only reason you're saying that.
Thanks for the free psychoanlysis!
Let's see. I guess, based on your reasoning, I could say that you think the debates matter, and matter a LOT, because you think your choice of candidate is a real swell debater. That's gotta be the only reason you're saying that.
(BTW, please ensure you understand that I have been addressing ONLY the presidential debates and ONLY in this cycle.)
And no, I am not overlooking the independents. As I posted originally, I think this president is so polarizing that even the mushy middle has already formed an opinion as to whether or not they want Obama for four more years.
That said, Obama's support among independents is already only at 30%.
I don't see that changing (except, maybe, to go lower) between now and the debates. And I surely do not see anything that could possibly happen in the debates that would send independents running back into Obama's arms in significant numbers.
I really don’t follow you.
You agree that they are calling him the greatest public speaker since the Sermon on the Mount, and that he’s the most intelligent human since Newton... but somehow they will be able to set his debate expectations as low?
Ok. Whatever.
We just have to agree to disagree on this one.
