"The entire debate was a set up by liberal groups to make Rudy look bad and Romney look good..."

Er... OK. :-)

(Good news is that there will --- apparently --- be *lots* of Presidential candidate debates, with both fields of candidates, with *lots* of different sponsors in different places... so I guess the odds will have a chance of evening out, and other candidates will have a chance at being 'favored or disfavored' by the sponsors. <GGG>)

PS --- would this be a bad time for me to point out that I prognosticated on this thread a couple of months back that Rudy's (then field-leading) position in the polls for the G.O.P. field would likely fade some as the primary electorate got more exposure to him? To gauche to bring up? <g>

On the other-hand, I recently noticed some chatter in the media, pointing out a fact that has been somewhat overlooked, that --- because some very big and more urbanized States, such as California and now Florida, have leap-frogged their way into early and prominent position on the calendar of primaries, a candidate like Guiliani may gain a big advantage over many of the social conservatives in the field... the calendar changes have made it more possible that he could 'run the table' with early wins in these States, which could pull all the media attention and more campaign contributions in his direction.

What d'ya think?
