Palin and W did fine. Debates are probably THE most over-rated thing in a presidential campaign.


i agree that he would do fine in a presidential debate, but in the primaries he might have issues.

I think his real problem is the campaign trail where he will say inane things that will get repeated over and over and over again.

Yeah. But people forget he's been the governor of Texas for 14 years without too many problems.

Sure the lights are brighter, but I don't think he's any more likely to say something that will get him into trouble than Rand Paul. That said, Rand Paul is much smarter, but he also speaks his mind - which is what people like about him, but it's also how you get yourself into trouble in a long campaign.

probably the most underrated. The power of television. Unfortunately...for many voters this is really the first, if not only, time they've seen some of these candidates. Plus, television is a powerful medium

It can absolutely swing an election (more emphasis on an election between two non incumbents)
