Lots of political posts lately. It's that time of year, I guess. I TiVoed the CA Governor's debate since I wouldn't get home from work early enough to watch it. Scott and I plopped down on the couch with some Chinese takeout and watched.
IMHO, Camejo and McClintock actually came out the best of all of them; Hufffington's attacks on Bustamante and Schwarzenegger drove things off topic and divided those candidates' attention from their answers. By staying out of Huffington's firing line, the other 2 had the chance to actually answer some questions and talk about issues. Bustamante did do some talking about issues, but I also noticed that he ducked at least one question to go off on unrelated issues. Schwarzenegger did OK considering how much he was getting sniped by Huffington, who didn't miss a chance to attack.
I wateched the debate hoping I would figure out who to vote for but have not come to any firm conclusions. Here's where I am now:
-Huffington's a joke.
-McClintock is too right wing.
-Camejo is too left wing.
-I don't like Bustamante and his $4 million Indian casino donation shell games.
-Then there's Schwarzenegger - but I think he doesn't really grok how different running a state is from running a company and his inexperience will cause problems. Plus I have a hard time voting for any Republican knowing that a Republican governor will make things harder for the Democratic nominee in next years's election.
I suppose I could vote for one of the no-names, but I don't want to waste my vote either.
