First, let me say I'm a registered independent in NY and I haven't chosen a candidate. Other than Biden, and perhaps Obama (who needs a few years at the Army War College), the Dem field disappoints this election. I will never vote for Clinton or Edwards.
The Republican field however is very interesting. Tonight I really am impressed with Huckabee. I lived in Arkansas for 25 years, do not like Huckabee, my father who was involved in Arkansas politics for decades supported Mike Beebe this past election, marking the first Democrat in Arkansas he ever supported in my lifetime. I would almost certainly not vote for Huckabee against either Obama or Biden, but he is very impressive nonetheless.
He'd make a great VP.
Personally speaking, Romney reminds me of Bush, I feel like I have seen this act before. Thompson disappears on stage next to some of the others, no wonder he can't get any momentum in his campaign. Rudy Giuliani is still my favorite of that pack though, I worked with him on 9/11, I've seen the city before and after he was mayor, and watching people attacking his record is laughable, the results aren't statistical, they can be seen in person with a trip to the best large city in the world, New York City.
Updated: Issues not discussed included Iran, energy, environment, or health care. I'm against government run health care, so maybe no discussion is a good thing, but energy and environment would have been good discussions for Republicans to discuss, perhaps we would have seen more that makes them different.
Updated: Drudge hammers home the point. CNN = Clinton News Network. Mea Culpa.
