Paging the Lesser of 8 Evils - New York Times
The column by Collins, obviously a Democrat, is clever but off-putting. Her motive is to portray the whole lot of Republican candidates and their campaigns as 'bad news.'
I watched most of the Republican debate last night. I thought the format was bizarre. The flashy backdrops and surreal staging turned me off. The YouTube questions format was OK, but I don't know if the candidates were exposed to the specific questions in advance or not.
Ron Paul is an embarrassment. Romney was unconvincing. Duncan was merely taking up space. McCain was, well...McCain. Thompson was bland, but credible. Giuliani seemed self absorbed as mayor of New York, although he surely does have an impressive record there. I think the standout was Huckabee by a mile is his ability to connect with people via his rational and clear responses. He seemed to be working from the question, not from a mental script like the others.
