Will Hillary keep debating?

Question

I watched the debate last evening. I think Hillary should consider not attending anymore debates???
She side stepped all the questions. Even remarked at one point that she would have to ask her husband?
She in general acted as though she has already got the job?
Edwards took it to to her and she got very testy!
She even tryed to correct the moderators question for him, in a way that she could answer it!
As this election gets closer she is going to haft to answer the questions!
It's going to get tougher as questions about her past start to come out and the smart people won't except "I can't comment on that" as an answer!
I would not be at all surprised to see her pull out of the remaining debates in order not have to answer the questions put to her.
She will most likely not answer anything that is not scripted in advance from now on!
I just hope that last night is the way she continues to do things!
She acted like Bush was her advisor!
I'm Lovvin it!!!

Answer 1

I'm not lovvin it, but she needs to quit talking about Bill and when he was president. She did sidestep many answers and Russert did try to nail definite answers out of them. I guess she took Bush's comment that she will be the Dem nominee to heart. Wonder if she realizes that Republicans want her to be the nominee because they will tear her apart later and have the ammo to do it. Anytime Bush says something like that you know there has to be an ulterior motive. Can't wait to see how this plays out!

Answer 2

Looked to me like the paint was cracking on Hillary. Her inability to give a straight answer has started the negatives flowing. Tim Russert broke open that vial of contempt She has been carrying for the public for a long time. Continued disregard for the questions and putting forth her usual bland responses will cost her the nomination. People are not as dumb as her and Billy think. Hopefully the other candidates will start unloading on her instead of cowering in her shadow. The overall lack of initiative by the group reflects the 11% approval rating of congress.

Answer 3

This was the first Democrat debate I saw that wasn't comprised of entirely softball questions.



Russert really held their feet to the flames with his opener on Iraq. Surprisingly, the top 3 didn't flat out lie and cry 'cut and run'.



It sounds a little strange to accuse them of debating too much, but I'm already sick of it.



Hillary did trot out the 'I'll have to ask BJ' line a little too often. It's not clever, and it made her look completely unqualified.

Answer 4

I think it's funny how she advocates US military/police action in Iran to head off the terrorism there. Replace the word 'Iran' with 'Iraq' and you get the campaign of our last two terms, the man whom she claims to disagree with 100% on everything.



If you truly don't think it matters anymore, watch a few debates and interviews with Ron Paul, now there's a guy. No avoiding questions, no clever ambiguity, and a clear dissension from the recent Republican platforms.

Answer 5

All good politicians are gifted at side-stepping questions. The really good ones do it and most people don't notice it.



I firmly think that politicians punish interviewers hard questions with long-winded non-responses (in hopes they don't ask them again).



Democrat - Republican (it doesn't seem to matter much any more)
