Who else is looking forward to the Republican debate?
I can't wait till tomorrow night. For the first time in eons, the Dems were more or less "united" last night. I'm hoping to see fireworks during the Republican debate. Do you think they'll present a united front or will their individual ambitions get in the way?

2. republicans: They know everything about nothing
I wonder though, if the moderator will let them talk, and I also wonder what type of questions they'll be asked. That being said, the Cubs are on TV and that (hopefully) will be more entertaining than the republic party debate. Or perhaps I'll stand out in the middle of the street and wait for a hot rodder to run me over.

3. I am hoping for more "raise your hand" questions
The first debate revealed three Rep. candidates who do NOT believe in evolution. So, like you, I can't wait. :thumbsup:

8. It's supposed to be exactly the same format as last night.
It's being held in the same place. (About a mile away from my house). I'm hoping to hear the explosions from here!

13. Your city must be overrun with the press
I saw a live report from Manchester a little while ago. Looks like you're having terrible weather. :-(

15. Cold rain. I love it.
I hate the heat. Guess I live in the right part of the country, huh?

11. Yeah- that one question was more informative than... well... anything else!
We learned so much in so few seconds!

4. They're going to run roughshod over Wolfie
That was one thing I noticed from last night. If Wolfie couldn't maintain a tight grip on the Democrats, there's no way he's going to be able to corral Rudy McRomney. LOL!

5. In all honesty I couldn't care less.
They've got some real problems trying not to run against Bush and the war and in the end I don't think it will matter who they run.

9. Me!
Especially considering the outstanding performance last night by our guys. It will be amazing to watch the contrast. Not to mention I like to know what those bastards are up to.

10. I'm looking forward to it! I want to stay informed about what the enemy
has to say. After all one of them is going to be running again st us.
We can better defeat them if we pay attention to what the say or how they think.

I also think they will all be united as to how tough they will be on terrorism and united at fear mongering. They will try to out-tough each other except for Ron Paul. They will ALL try to make Dems appear weak on security.

I'd also like to know if they will take Raygun's advice that no Rethug should ever criticize another Rethug. I wish our team would take that advice and remember who's the enemy.

17. If its being moderated by Wolf Blitzer, then
it will probably be a repub love fest. No news there.

Just war and terror, and 9/11 ad nauseum.

18. IMO, they will let us all know about Guyana and Trinidad and the
connection to our home grown terrorist. (wink,wink Black Muslims).

19. I am looking forward to putting a needle in my eye as much as looking forward to the debates.
You won't hear Bush bashing as much as you will hear Clinton bashing and St Ronnie praise. Who needs more of that.

20. how many Republicans will participate?
all the Democratic candidates appeared in last night's debate, will all the Republicans who plan to run also appear?

we currently have nine Republicans running, and if Fred Thompson or Newt Gingrich jump in..there'll be at least ten. of the Republicans, the one I listen to most is Ron Paul. I look forward to watching him kick some butt tomorrow-night!
