Wow, Gravel really ended that debate on a note of optimism....!!

:sarcasm:

1. Did he throw a rock at someone?

[Sparkly]

2. Verbally, he threw one at nearly all of them.

Said most of the people on the stage with him didn't have the -- (trying to remember) moral judgment I believe -- to be president. Audience groaned, and sign-off -- that was the end of the whole debate.

[tblue]

4. Yeah, that kinda sank him like the Titanic. It was too broad a brush. Not true of all of them by a

long shot.

3. Some don't age gracefully, Gravel should get out now. n/t

[scarletwoman]

7. What does his age have to do with anything? He speaks his mind.

If you disagree with his opinions, fine. But don't be dissing him because of his AGE.

[durrrty libby]

5. He embarrassed himself.

[NI4NI]

6. Excellent debate until that.

I have always hoped that Gravel would be given a fair chance in debates.
He got that tonight and IMO he blew it with his last remark that ended the best debate I have seen so far.
I can only imagine what kind of answers republicans would give that same audience to those very same questions. That would be fun to watch.

11. actually Gravel was dead right on

He said, look, what have these others done? Answer: NOTHING

So, look elsewhere like Gravel '08!

What the hell, maybe I'll send him another $10! :D :toast:

:kick:

[Cameron27]

8. Really, what a bummer. ugh

Kucinich was outstanding though...he took me by surprise actually.

[welshTerrier2]

9. i really liked Gravel's message

he's right ... until they stop offering corporate health care and corporate defense and corporate campaigns, the whole thing is all for show ... he may not have had the specific ideas that Kucinich provided but he said what needed saying ...

[Old and In the Way]

10. Had he made the point about the Republican candidates not having the moral judgement,

it would have been spot on. Instead, he dropped the only real downer comment of the night. Not smart, Mike.

[whistle]

12. Any chance the debate will be on YoiuTube

[welshTerrier2]

13. looks like C-Span will rebroadcast it

C-Span I at 5:30 am et for 90 minutes

[whistle]

14. 5:30am.....well I'm not sure I want to see it that badly

...were there any naked scenes?

[ProudDad]

15. I haven't seen it to the end yet

but Dennis and Gravel are a WONDERFUL one-two punch.

Especially on Health Care (HR676!!!) and Gravel on the phony "war on drugs"...

[ProudDad]

16. Kucinich, as usual, won the debate

if it were based on the merits of the arguments.
