I LOVE This Spot
Undecided Voter
So have you voted in the "Who won last night's debate?" poll yet? Can you guess the predictable results depending where you see the poll? BTW, I actually AGREE with this video form SNL

Do This Year's Presidential Debates Matter?
and all the through the nation
a feeling of deja vu is rampant
and in my opinion, a definite lack of elation...
I know, I could do better...
I'm so tired of the election already.
In my opinion, this debate is merely an exercise
a ghost of what the US used to be.
They USED to matter, I suppose.
Watching video of the Nixon/ Kennedy debates are interesting.
That's back when there were only 3 networks and it was pretty much a litmus test on how we here in the US would observe our potential candidates in a challenge or perceived confrontation.
Now they are horribly predictable: down to the specific phrases and counterpoints. Though ideologically miles apart, seemingly, they both are a caricature of each other. Take the daily appearances they make- they BOTH are dressed and presented similarly. Down to the matching white , rolled up long sleeve shirts and nearly identical suits and ties. Google "Obama Romney" in Google images and see what you find- it's creepy!
In the name of civility, both candidates will smile as they attempt to jab one another and their political party.
Both candidates will cite the same rhetoric and half truths that we have heard all year or even longer.
Nothing new will be revealed.I promise you. Expect both candidates to make a minor gaffe or two and even laugh about it.
Overall, it's going to be quite the non event.
And think, both candidates have spent WEEKS preparing for this. BOTH candidates' spokespeople have repeatedly told the press to expect to be underwhelmed.
We're WAY ahead of ya there, guys...
