Frankly, I'm rethinking that.

I lay in bed this morning thinking the same thing!!

There was one question in particular, might have been the first one to Obama by Gibson, the tone of which struck me. I kept trying to remember the exact wording. But the words plus the tone, I thought were very insulting....as in personally insulting. It carried, I thought, condescension and sarcasm....not at all appropriate for a political debate.

The whole debate was definitely a departure from previous ones. I suspect that was the point...to set themselves apart since policy issues are old hat. The gotcha questions were basically OK, IMO, but there was a tone to many of the questions I found objectionable.
