Perils Of Punditry

The debate last night involved at best 2 minutes of answers on average for each candidate. Yet somehow, the punditocracy still insists on anointing a winner (at present it’s Sen. Clinton). Why cant they just say nobody won or lost - because nobody did.

    I heard a few people say last night’s debate changed nothing, which was the least surprising outcome possible.

    If it changed nothing it goes down as a loss for the low poll candidates. Of them Dodd and Richardson got absolutely no traction. Biden may have gotten a little but is still a way long shot. Kucinich and Gravel are just there for the coffee and donuts.

    A worthless debate WAY to early for most of the American people to even pay attention (except for the political junkies, of course.)

    I’m surprised they didn’t have buzzers on the podiums for the lightning round.
    The whole thing was just cocked up for fresh sound bites, that’s all.
    Wake me up in September. Of next year.

    I do think Obama underperformed expectations, if only slightly. Which is probably a good thing for him, if he is able to step up his game for subsequent debates.
