Simple Analysis of Thompson's first debate.

Good on message, more charisma, and take dems to task.

Published on October 9, 2007 By jesseledesma In Politics

I just washed the republican debate of the MSNBC website. The criteria I was using to evaluate the candidates was was the person a good sales person for his message and was the person good at taking the democrats to task.

I also was looking to see were the candidates stood on the issues. However, I paid more attention on presentation and understanding their competitor, Hillary Clinton.
My issues evaluation comes down to the conclusion that to much time was spent on issues that are not central to this presidential election cycle. However, the candidates can't be held responsible for what a flaming liberal like Mathews comes up with in a debate.

In addition, that Wall Street babe sure is a babe. Okay, now to my evaluation. It is my opinion, that there was not enough time for the candidates to speak well on the issues.

However, they were confident and knew their stuff. The carisma and sharm that is requirred of person working in public relations was missing. I would tell all the candidates to try to be more relaxed, funny, and talk with a voice of authority.

On taking the democrats to task, it appeared to me that McCain and Guilliani criticized Hillary more than the other candidates.

Mr. Thompson represented his message well, which is a plus for him. I must be honest after I did my profiles on the candidates it became ovious to me that the candidate with the experience, educaiton, morality, and conservative ethic of the republican party is Mr. Thompson.

I know some people do not like having Thompson in the lead, but I think he is has the ability to get the attention of the majority of the people in the conservative movement.

Therefore, my simple evaluation is:
* that there are to many candidates and it may be time to widdle down the field,
*all candidates were good on delivering their message,
*they need more carisma and charm,
* and only McCain and Guilliani were good at taking the democrats to task.

Furthermore, let me praise all the candidates for their voicing the potential of America and recognizing how great she is.

Hey Jesse,

Interesting assessment.

I felt that Thompson didn't give a strong showing. There was significant build up and a very opportune time for him to make separation from the group. Sadly his mediocre showing will hurt him (short term) in the polls.

Guilliani continues to prove himself well and the one that will step up to the plate against anyone. Look at his response to Ron Paul (multiple times).

Romney in my opinion was mediocre.

McCain pretty much finished.

Tancredo did a really good job of calling out McCain on a few issues however lacks in effectively delivering his message. Needs to practice a deep breathe method (like Guilliani).

Ron Paul has an interesting stance and on SOME issues I am in deep agreement with him however like Tancredo his message is lost in poor delivery.

Brownback trying to utilize bi-partisan. I don't think he would have any popularity if it weren't for the media's attention to the tornado in Kansas.

Hunter - I don't have much to say on him. Pretty conservative but his message doesn't stand out.

Huckabee - I think Huckabee is starting to catch his stride. I would not be surprised that within the next few months he begins to pass Romney and even McCain. Good clear and precise. His degree in speech is paying off. It would benefit him to use his charisma and begin separating himself from the second tier by calling others to task before they start cutting off the cull.

As for the majority I think most are not calling to task as the race is still early.

Did ya get all the stains out? Or were you too busy wanking all over Thompson to realize you'd made a mess again?

PS Estúpido, it's watched, not washed.
