The debate last night was ridiculous and showed great bias. It turns out the the Stephanopoulos question to Obama regarding the fund raiser William Ayres held for Obama in 1995 was suggested to him by Right Wing Wingnut Sean Hannity of Fixed News. Ayres, a former member of the Weather Underground, was a radical activist in the 1960's.
Stephanopoulos, former Clinton factotum, and now wealthy ABC newscaster and bloviator (the real evidence of transition is Architectural Digest. Similar to Carville, Stephanopoulos has had his Manhattan home featured in AD) showed his smarmy elitist side. And, of course, he is a not so closeted Clinton supporter.
My gut tells me that by and large the public doesn't give a shit about these debates. The Clinton advantage in Pennsylvania is narrowing. Colbert is holding forth in Philadelphia which will give us the real news on the Pennsylvania primary. Tuesday night he was great, especially his interview with Michelle Obama. He asked her if she was an elitist who grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth. She responded that she grew up on the South Side of Chicago and had four spoons at her home. When her Dad got a raise, they got a fifth spoon.
Stephanopoulos has a silver spoon now, thanks to leveraging his tenure with the Clinton administration.
