    Isn't it interesting that

    (a) If the campaign was fought over the issues, the Dems would win every time

    (b) The press won't let it be about the issues, they are WAAAY too interested in whether Obama ever lived in the same neighborhood as a hippie anarchist from the 70s, or whether he hates America because he doesn't wear a flag pin (even though Clinton and McCain don't).

    Also shouldn't there be some kind of rule against a former campaign operative setting up and moderating a debate - ie Stephanapolous who was the go to guy for the Clintons throughout the 90s. The whole thing had the feel of a staged, joyless Clinton informercial/ Obama passion play.
