First Republican Presidential Debate is Tonight, 8PM EDT

from my email:

The first debate among the candidates for the Republican nomination for president will take place on Thursday, May 3rd at 8:00 pm EDT.

Congressman Ron Paul will be on stage standing between Senator John McCain and Rudy Giuliani. The 90-minute debate will be broadcast live on MSNBC, and streamed live on politico.com. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library will host the event.
I should be able to watch live, if not I'll check it out after on my dvr.

Go Ron

I am Ron Paul, Congressman from Texas... I am the champion of the Constitution.

Ron Paul has an really tough uphill battle. His positions are fairly complicated in a political sense because they require a lot of explanation. I know the defenders of him on the board will say something like "he just wants to follow the constitution what is complicated about that?". I agree, in reality it is not that complicated. Explaining positions is usually what leads to the democrats problems in a political world dominated by slogan and sound bite.

I like the fact the GOPers were man enough to continue with the debate, despite the fact that it is being hosted by a left-leaning media outlet. That's more than we can say about another party.

Why is the moderator interrupting the answers? I thought they had time to respond without interruption?

"Do you have a plan to increase the amount of organs donated?" Excuse me? What does the president have to do with that?
