The last like 10 years have been useless as far as debates go.

Just watch WWE if you want to see a fake wrestling match. These "debates" have been absolutely pathetic and show the world just how fucking stupid we are.

The Obama era debates were the last decent debates. He was able to give thoughtful nuanced answers, while still holding people’s attention and remaining concise. Not many people have that skill.

That said, those Biden - Palin debates have some similarities to the Trump - Biden debates. Once again, Biden is debating a loud, confident, fascist, moron. And once again, we’re hoping he doesn’t produce a gaffe that makes him the center of attention.

People talk about these debates as if they are a thing you can "win." Once upon a time they might have been, but who in the nation didn't know who they were voting for in this election 4 years ago?

The moderator asks a question, the candidate doesn't answer it, his opponent slings mud, the audience claps, nothing is achieved.

We are really stupid. The rest of the world is pretty stupid too, but we're putting it out there in big, bright neon lights.
