Gubernator 06: Round 2

The democratic party preliminary election debate was a lot of fun to watch (notably the part where candidates can ask one another questions). I guess that you can never get off from playing hooky. It seems that Rod Smith got the better of Jim Davis this round. How did you find it?

Post debate thoughts

I watched the debate again. Not as much fun as it was watching it live because I still don't know which of these two candidates to vote for in the preliminaries. These two guys didn't distinguish their point of views well enough and I think that they were arguing the same points. I would be more inclined to vote for Davis because he's a local (but so is Republican Charlie Crist), but I wasn't impressed by how his questions attacking Smith blew up in his face as Smith was able to deflect much of it. When you actually go to work, you should actually read the bills (or something to that nature). Also I didn't understand Davis' argument why shouldn't small class size be considered at the federal level, but should be placed in the State constitution.

I received my sample ballot in the mail. Anyone know who Burkett, Castagnero, and Crotty are?

Here is video of the debate from WUSF.
