The DNCNN-YouTube-Idiocracy Debate

Summed up nicely from the brilliant Wuzzadem:

Republicans' CNN/YouTube debate

I laughed out loud.

All the dirt from the GOP’s Idiocracy Debate at Michelle Malkin’s (and more by following the trackbacks).

Let this be the nail in the coffin for stupidity like YouTube debates. PLEASE.

Best comment seen so far, from Tim Lamb of Waynesville, Ohio:

This is a stupid format. What is next? Dancing with the Presidential Candidates!! The Great Presidential Race!! Presidential Idol!! Give me a break. How about a serious format?

Amen.

Oh, and yeah, I did watch it after all. If I were a good blogger, I’d have posted my commentary about it here. Instead, everything I had to say during the debate is over in the comments at Ace’s. You know, where people actually comment.

Winners & Losers:

Most Presidential: McCain, as usual. Plus, he got extra bonus points for his Presidential demeanor in contrast to the barking moonbat debate troll standing next to him. You know who that is. I personally would have been happier if McCain had roundhouse-kicked RP, but that’s not gonna happen. Oh well.

Most Charismatic (not in the religious sense): Mike Huckabee, as usual. He comes across really well in these debates, but eventually people are going to look deeper and I suspect not like everything he’s for.

Most Surprising (and Welcome) Line: “I was wrong.” Well played by Romney on the abortion issue.

Funniest Line: The bit at the end with Rudy and the Yankees. Other than that bit, he was off last night.

Most in Danger of Hemorrhaging Support: Fred. Fred, oh Fred…wherefore art thou, Fred?

Candidate with the Most Soft Support and Weakest Campaign: Duncan Hunter. I have yet to see any conservative speak ill of Duncan Hunter, but dude’s got like $86 in his campaign. He was good in the debate as always, but it’s meaningless–especially when he only gets in about three sentences. Then again, Huckabee once was in the same boat. I don’t see it with Hunter, though.

Failure of Imagination: Tom Tancredo, on the Mars program. Also Huckabee (and Mitt?), but Tancredo especially. Just one more reason why I wouldn’t vote for him.

Crazy Troll Who Needs To Take A Xanax Before The Debates: Obviously, Ron Paul. I loved that someone asked him the CFR question, because he showed his crazy conspiracy theorist ass for the whole country. And again, McCain should’ve roundhouse kicked him on that Vietnam crap. As soon as I heard it, I was just waiting for McCain’s response. But no point in continuing on the Troll–I detest everything about him, everything he says. He could say “kittens and babies are adorable” and it would irritate me, because he is apparently incapable of speaking without sounding like a raving lunatic (again, contrast that with McCain).

Winner of the Debate: Hillary Clinton, courtesy of the Clinton News Network. Again.

Loser: Ron Paul, because I despise him and his supporters. Okay, the real loser: CNN. What a disgrace.

Update: Ace says General Kerr was the winner.

The clear winner of the Republican debate was Gen. Keith Kerr, a member of Hillary’s LGBT steering committee, given approximately half as much time to voice his opinions as Tom Tancredo or Duncan Hunter or Fred Thompson.

Exactly. More post-mortem from the disgraceful Idiocracy Debate there, too.

    By far the best exchange at the debate was when Huckabee was asked, “What would Jesus do about the death penalty?” and he replied, “Jesus would be too smart to ever run for public office.” Huckabee has the rare gift of being able to take his faith seriously yet still maintain a sense of humor. He’s got my vote.

    While I think the format is a little odd, objectively I think one would have to say that the format generated more excitement than the recent GOP debates. This could be attributed to the fact that Iowa is closing in on us fast, but nonetheless this debate was better than most recent ones.

    I really like Hunter. Shame he isn’t getting traction among conservatives. Too many in our camp are focusing on beating Hilary instead of getting a candidate that lines up with the party platform.
