Wow. The candidates must have been shackled to their podiums during the first half of the debate, because it's a wonder at some points that they didn't pounce on one another.The second half, which CNN has dubbed the no-rules portion, seems much more civil, oddly enough. But even moderator Wolf Blitzer questioned how much the rules had applied in the first place.
This debate, for better or worse, is seeming to offer more insight into the candidates and their differences than last week's love-fest in Las Vegas, when one question centered on the criticism that the leading candidates' policies seem too similar.
By the way, Barack Obama is quite the comedian lately, and he does raise a good point. We all remember that Bill Clinton can play the saxophone, but can he dance? Apparently, Hillary can arrange a demonstration!

I swear. I think I may have Electile Dysfunction: I cannot become aroused over any of the choices for president put forth by either party in the 2008 election year.
