(7,286 posts)I thought it was a poor debate over all. 30 minutes, each answered questions in turn taking turns who went first with no rebuttal. I didn't see a winner. Both candidate's answers seemed canned and the fact that there was no rebuttal time for each question meant they each could say anything and not be called out on half truths or out right lies. Pretty 2nd rate, amateurish production in my opinion.

Fucking coward.
I knew that. Helps explain why this debate was such a shitty one. They shouldn't have even bothered.

People who have heard her speak will have no doubt he wanted that format because he feared he'd lose a real debate with her.
