Debates and Town Hall Forums are not analogous. This was some sort of weird mutation, as it fit neither category.

I just posted on the line that none of the pundits picked up on.

I thought it was boring.

Obama said healthcare is a right. Hopefully someone will run with that. I doubt if Obama will take it above rhetoric.

Here on "t`other side of water", we aren`t getting much news about the american "elections", however, neither would-be warmonger -in-chief mentions the fact that a collapsing stock market will lead to a collapse in capital-based pension funds.
Pretty soon many angry american and european pensioners will start wondering what to do about the bankers and brokers and politicans who oversaw the whole scam/mess.

Yeah, it was like watching baseball where neither team gets a home run.
