This was an interesting style of debate, with the candidates talking directly to the people asking the questions. On one hand, it added a deeply personal touch by having the candidates look the people in the eyes and tell them how they are going to fix the economy/ every other problem America faces right now. On the other hand, it was an opportunity for the candidates to bash each other in front of their potential supporters. I felt like it was a lot of, "well he said he was going to do this, and that sucks, but luckily there's still ME, who will fix EVERYTHING!!" (insert cheesy smile).
I didn't watch the whole debate because I didn't feel that it was necessary to understand what was going on. I'm starting to get tired of the campaign trail, so I'm very much looking forward to Novemember.
It will be here before you know it. But just think if you are a House of Representative member you run every two years. For them it must seem like as soon as the campaign trail ends you have to start again.
