Once again, the people with T-Vs are watching the debate. I have yet to see one. Anyone else?

1. I watched one a couple of months ago, and that's it......
I hate these pointless dog and pony shows.

6. I don't have cable and even if I did, I would not watch the debates.
I can't stand to see our people tearing each other to pieces. If they keep up this shit, we are in for four more years of Republican rule.

9. Amen.
1) It's too early.
2) I'm making up my own mind without the 'help' of shitheads like Tim Russert.
3) I want to hear what a candidate will DO, not their opinion of other candidates. I can take care of that myself.

too early for debates if you ask me but no one did ask me

if it's on cable as another poster suggests, well, i have never had cable in my life so i couldn't watch anyways

12. why bother...?
none of them are going to say any of the things that i want to hear- and on the off chance that they do, i'll have an almost unlimited opportunity to see it at my leisure.

13. I don't watch. They are opportunities for media moderators to manage debate and filter information.

14. I haven't watched one
and have no plans to watch any of the dog and pony shows. Debates are for people that are undecided or can be swayed. The only way I'd sway from Hillary is if Gore got into it which ain't gonna happen.
