Default GOP Presidential Debate on May 15, 2007

Anybody watch it? Jay Leno was billing it as the "Thriller in Vanilla".

I missed the first one. But I don't know why there are posters championing Paul. Although he had some good ideas, a lot of it floats right over. He looks like an ineffective octogenarian, which I guess is hard to do if you're 71 years-old. His voice was nauseating too. Sound like he was actually complaining more than debating. A libertarian masquerading with an "R" at the end of his name.

I thought Rudy stole the show; his social, domestic and foreign policy ideas bode well with me. Despite the fact that he's a Yankees fan.

Best part was when he sparred over comments made by Paul (who accused US military operations during the Persian Gulf war served as impetus for September 11), and asked the congressman to withdraw his comments. Rudy totally interrupted the flow, even the camera operators and producers were seemingly confused. McCain and Romney were just jockeying for title of "who is more conservative".

Brownback, Tancredo et all, didn't impress me much. Thompson looked as pliable as a store mannequin.

When are the Democrats going to air?
