3. I watch online. I don't have cable. Why should I pay for that nonsense.
With a few exceptions, the stuff on TV is too right-wing. Why would I want to pay my hard-earned dollars to watch the likes of Anne Coulter or Kristol. I don't need it.

6. I don't have MSNBC on my DISH programs,
so they may not be on a lot of cable or satelite basic programs, therefore they don't reach large audiences. I watched parts online.

10. I think people are sick and tired of all this debate crap already.
It is time enough to debate when it gets close to vote.

16. People read about them
That's why it's important to be following the election in your local media and write letters when they misreport as well. Most people don't watch any debates. They make their decision based on sound bytes, ads and what the neighbor says. That's also why when people think their whining about some silly campaign blip doesn't matter, I get so infuriated. That's the exact kind of thing that influences elections.
