Nevada Caucus Day

We know Mitt Romney is going to win Nevada; it is only a question of "by how much?" I actually wish we had another debate in the next week or so. I have loved them. Even if some of the questions are silly, or distracting, or "gotcha" in manner, when the candidates are right there next to each other, we can see who can think on theirfeet and who can't. When they try to wiggle out of answering a question, it's obvious. The debates expose or enhance a profile. Rick Perry was #1 in the polls until he did a couple debates and people got to hear his answers on issues. Newt Gingrich came across quite well in several of them, but when he became the front-runner and came under more fire, well, the old Newt came out. The petulant, angry, grandiose Newt that was pushed out of office in bipartisan fashion. But without debates, what do we have? Tightly controlled town halls and negative ads. Next!
