DE Senatorial debate tonight at 7:30 ET.

[jenmito]

CNN will cover it because Wolf Blitzer (R) will be the moderator. When announcing it, Don Lemon asked, "Could O'Donnell deliver a deadly blow to Coons tonight?" (Paraphrased but I'm 90% sure he said it exactly that way.) I think they just want to make it sound interesting so more people will watch. I'LL be watching it on C-Span.

1. Thanks for the heads up, Jenmito! It will be on C-Span, too!

I love debates! Poor weenie CNN works so hard to court the right. Thank goodness it's on C-span, too!

The debate will be from 7:30 to 9PM.

[jenmito]

2. Yup, it'll be on C-Span, too. I love the debates, too.

Did you see the CT debate last night? If not, you can see it here: http://theday.com/article/20101013/MEDIA0101/101019891/0/NWS02 And last night's CA Gubernatorial debate will be on C-Span at 9pm tonight on C-Span, too. At least that's what they said yesterday.

23. I nearly threw up in the gym! CNN is so disgusting! They are making is seem

like this is a "toss-up" race! It's not! He's killing her!!!

[Arkana]

30. Um, I think even if you asked Wolf Blitzer right now he'd say "She's f**king insane."

And when Wolf Blitzer thinks you've flipped your lid...

[CakeGrrl]

3. Only if she's allowed to use a mace, Don.

:eyes:

4. Kick-it's starting in 2 min. n/t

5. God this should be good. n/t

[jenmito]

6. The bar is so low for her-it's Palinesque. n/t

[timber84]

8. Yep

The gentleman on CNN before it started made me think that as well.

[KingFlorez]

7. She's reading off papers

She's got a whole stack.

[jenmito]

9. Freedoms-Liberty-Greatest Country-Low Taxes-Constitution-Blah blah blah. n/t

[jenmito]

10. Take note of how many times Wolf uses, "right now" in his questions. n/t

[Kdillard]

11. How is Coons doing? I read that she called him a Marxist.

[KingFlorez]

12. He's holding his own

[jenmito]

14. The bar for her is so low that pundits will probably say she did great.

:eyes:

[ProSense]

18. Well, it's going to be interesting to

watch them spin this and this.

:rofl:

[Kdillard]

17. Good. Hope he gets a few good jabs in.

[jenmito]

13. He's setting her lies about him straight. He explained that the "Bearded Marxist" comment

was a joke and read the context of it. And SHE said her comment about Evolution being a myth was said on a "comedy show" and it was in context of a school that wanted to teach creationism along with evolution, and that HER view isn't important.

[Kdillard]

16. Thanks. I really don't want this goofball to get any traction from being able to form a complete

Sentence. He just really needs to put this away and affirm the views of voters that she is unqualified for office.

[jenmito]

20. Sadly, she IS forming complete sentences, but she's avoiding subjects that

Coons is raising. He asked her WHAT version of the Constitution she's for-the original one, the one that includes amendments, or what. He asked her about her position on abortion-since that's now in the Constitution. She never answered it. And when asked again, she said pregnancy in the cases of rape and incest make up such a small percentage of pregnancies. She's against abortion in all cases, but worded it that way.

[Kdillard]

22. That sounds very frustrating. Glad people will see her for the empty vessel that she is and let her

Go to Fox News in peace.

[Colobo]

15. Masturbation Barbie is truly annoying.

[LynneSin]

19. Only deadly blow she delivered was to her own campaign

SEriously, even Wolf thought she was out of her gourd whacked

[Arkana]

26. When Wolfie thinks you're nuts you're REALLY nuts.

Seriously, he wasn't even trying to HIDE how incredulous he was during the China question.

[jenmito]

21. She said she was misquoted about having classified intel. about China but tried to

dodge the question, talking about China in general.

[golfguru]

24. I just watched the debate

I have not seen O'Donnell in live TV before.
This lady is more dangerous than Palin. She
has a much better delivery than Palin. And
O'Donnell is more extreme than Palin in some
of her views.

[jenmito]

27. I somewhat agree...

but I THINK the people were able to see how she avoided answering the questions which show how extreme she is.

[golfguru]

34. Coons won the debate without any doubt but I am sure O'Donnell tonight will

find a lot more support amongst rwingers and probably more
money will pour in into her campaign, after her very
right wing positions on religion, abortion & taxes.

Considering O'Donnell has never been elected to any
office, held any appointed government position of
stature, she had no chance against a season politician
such as Coons.

[jenmito]

40. I was thinking the same thing.

The RWers will send her tons of money after this. But she'll still lose.

[Arkana]

28. I disagree. Palin was coached how to hide it in a wink and a smile.

O'Donnell sounded like a huffy, petulant teenage girl with her constant interruptions and the fact that she literally did not formulate a single response without attacking Coons. He's probably laughing himself sick right now over how that went.

[jenmito]

29. She sounded just like Palin when she said she couldn't think of a recent

Supreme Court ruling that she disagrees with but she'll post one on her website. Like Palin's, "...I'll find out and get back TO ya!" :rofl:

[Arkana]

31. Exactly--and with that horrible bomb of a question she will be inextricably linked

with Princess Moosebreath. And I'd wager that she's not real popular with DELAWARIANS (seriously, guys...you sound like space aliens).

[Kdillard]

32. I really don't get how a politician can bomb a question like that. I mean it really should be basic

preparation and just pick up a newspaper stuff.

[karynnj]

35. Thank God that DE is less likely to elect someone like that than Alaska

[golfguru]

39. Yes, good thing Castle lost, and gave us a gift of 1 more senator.

[jenmito]

25. She said, "We WILL triumph over freedom..."

:rofl:

[Parker CA]

33. HAHHAHAHAHAA. This woman is just nutterific. Unreal.

[livetohike]

36. That was in her prepared closing statement that she read, too

Also. :rofl:

[jenmito]

37. Yup. It was as if she just put a whole bunch of "patriotic" words together

and didn't check to see whether or not they made sense.

[Arkana]

38. Sounds familiar, doncha know.

[jenmito]

41. You betcha!

[Thrill]

42. I watched this. And she would be a scary candidate in another state

like Missouri, PA, NC, or VA. But I can't imagine her positions going over well in a State like DE. She is very far right and doesn't really try to hide it. Unless that state has completely flipped. This should be an easy win for Coons.
