Debate mistakes: What is the point of having the presidential candidates debate if they cannot get their facts straight. It almost seemed in some cases like they tried to stretch the truth on purpose. Now not only are the media and pundits arguing over who won or lost, but they are keeping a list of who screwed up. If all they are going to do is confuse people, why bother?
The whole debate exercise seems more like a show than a discussion of the issues. People seem to be more concerned about who is sighing while off camera or making odd faces than about what these two men are saying. Get yourselves informed--there are less than three weeks to go before you have to decide. It's not about who looks the best on camera, and it's not about who is the best at ripping the other candidate. In the end it is about who is the best person to run this country.
