EDIT .. they did not know which questions ahead of time they were going to get .. they were able to view the you tubes , however , there were so many .. there was no way they would have taken the time to view all .. I heard Coop say .. they picked the first question early this morning right before 3:00 which was the 'shut off time' .. ..
I read .. study the issues etc.. but .. I also have to evaluate how the candidates look, respond .. quickly , etc.. as to help me make a decision .. on .. oh .. a lot of things .. electability is a consideration .. let's face it ..as you said .. just how many do read .. check voting records etc.. ??? .. a lot of the families .. are too busy working & taking care of children .. I do understand that .. civics needs to get at least 2 hours a week in school or a course of 1 semester before graduation .. something ...
we are funny .. I thought it was less packaged .. oh well .. )
also the 'meter ' went up the most for Edwards when he said .. ".. Stand up to the insurance co ., pharma ., etc.. etc.. etc.. " .. meter went up to 90 ..
Clinton got the meter up to 70 ... it tracked down as she went on answering ..
