    Actually... the winners are the fuckface Political Pundits that'll get weeks worth of verbal regurgitation to spew from those boxes of fear that dominate American living rooms in order to accomplish the highest goal any American can achieve... the highest ratings.

    that's not exactly true.

    i've seen on a few different networks some pundits say the candidate who comes out on the short side of the stick with regards to all pundits generally wins with the american people.
    now, i'm on board with 'the person who wins the soundbite, wins the debate', but from what i understand, those who are undecided to necessarily listen to just the soundbite.

    Well... if the election hinges on people who make their decisions based upon (usually, taken out of context) soundbites... what does that tell you about us... as a nation?
    Hey America!!! Try turning off the T.V. for a change... and try picking up a fucking newspaper and reading it. If you have any problems with that... look up the Transcripts and read them in full context. And while you're at it... How about DECIDING ON YOUR OWN, huh? You DON'T need some fuck on T.V. to give you your opinion.

    what country are you living in?

    don't say you don't think opinions matter....cause they do.
    whether you agree with them or not, those who 'don't know' look for guidance.

    not everyone is as smart as you.

    not much of a debate. The questions about foreign policy weren't about IF we should get involved they were about HOW we should get involved. We being the United States. Both candidates were fine in regurgitating conventional ideology, both seemed fine carrying out traditional foreign policy, which really hasn't changed in over 60 years.

    Obama almost had my vote.
