I agree that the debates would be better if more pad and pencil reporters asked the questions, as opposed to TV-type "talking heads." However, I've never really had a problem with the questions. Every once in a while there's a doozy, i.e., "If your daughter were raped ..." Anyone can pretty much predict what the questions will be: Compare and contrast your prescription drug plan with your opponent's ... compare and contrast Star Wars, education policy, school vouchers, defense policy, etc.

My gut feeling is that GWB is uncomfortable with having to speak for up to 2 minutes at a time. Remember, this is the guy who has bragged that he hasn't read a serious book since graduating from college.
