Debating the Debates

Bill Maher on CNN debates the quality of debates and hails Obama for, well, speaking the truth, something the GOP candidates just don't seem very good at: CNN. As Florida looms right around the corner, the war of attrition continues with essentially two horses left in the race -- Gingrich and Romney. Unfortunately, few in the establishment want either and the people are suspect on both as well. Either could bode well for a second Obama term, where he will hopefully try to actually enact some of his policies. On a side note, after wondering about the long term impact of the OWS movement, it did get a sitting president to use it's rhetoric, by talking about the 99% versus the 1%. The GOP, unsurprisingly, suggested the move was class warfare, a tired old ploy to undermine any discussion of the other elephant in the room.
