Tonight's Debate

It's now 39 minutes since they started. I planned to watch and, maybe/hopefully learn something. Jim Lehrer has completely lost control and I've lost interest.

Don't we, the voters, deserve more than talking points and 2 guys ignoring, basically, the questions asked and the opponent's answer? Why do candidates think if they keep saying something over and over and over, we'll eventually agree with them?

They argued debated tonight about "studies" by economists. Hell, try getting a group of economists together sometime and see if you can find a consensus. Lot's of luck with that! And we keep hearing every year about this economic theory/plan versus that economic theory/plan only to find ourselves deeper in debt. Nothing working. Including people.
