Better Than Nothing?
Ten Democratic candidates for president "debate" tonight and 10 more tomorrow night. There is no time for them to get into issues and there are too many of them. They are in the stage because it is a first -- and perhaps, last -- chance to be in the national limelight. For most, it won't make much difference but it might be better than nothing. Viewership will likely be low for this evening and lower tomorrow. It is the kind of affair that only political "junkies" like. The mass of voters either aren't paying attention at this early stage or are waiting for the field to thin. From a PR perspective, it isn't an ideal event but it is a "must-do" to be taken seriously by supporters. Right now, none of them have many, and they face months of campaigning before they will.
