3. Done.But I hope that the media person did this already. I will let him

know! I am a bit nervous about this though. We must send waves of support! I might go to HQ to watch.Haven't decided.

4. Who watched?

I thought Pederson was great! He had Kyl playing defense most of the time.

BUT!!!! The second the debate was over it went right into a Kyl ad attacking Pederson - grrrrr!
Kyl had the last word, spoke well (altho full of shit-but experienced at that) and then the Kyl ad. Made me sick, but a smart move from Kyl's campaign...wish Pederson's people would have thought of that!

6. #3 Oct 20 Flagstaff, on Phoenix tv 6 pm channel 12

Pederson did even better in the 2nd debate, IMO.

He really laid it out, how Kyl won't acknowledge the reality of Iraq which is a prerequisite for fixing anything.

7. Agreed

I think Pederson did great both times.
It was Kyl who did alot worse...hahaha.

Hopefully the voters of this state were watching.
