Biss didn't seem ready for prime time. He tried to veer off topic here and there (like a more skilled pol might try) but stumbled and got called on it by Carol Marin.

Kennedy came off looking like a good guy but lacked-- I don't know-- enthusiasm? Almost like he's having second thoughts about the whole thing.

The other 3 guys were... the other 3 guys. No one embarrassed himself but I don't think they picked up any traction, either.

As always, Carol Marin was terrific. I'd love to see her moderate a presidential debate.

Also the point brought up that Ruiner wants to run against jb because he can connect him to blago, madigan, and tax favors left me to wonder what else.

Bliss did not have what is needed to win a debate or the election
Bliss although I've heard good things and his back ground and the road to how he got where he is in Springfield Is a respectful story but a lot of his proposals will not be popular
Ditto , sames for Tio Hardiman and Daiber

Kennedy was more appealing to me but his ideas again I do not believe will be that popular to enough voters also . He was able to debate but he's vey casual in his delivery which can cause voter apathy . Also his answer that he could not find anything good to say about jb when they all were suppose to I felt was inappropriate. Bliss who does not like jb either at least knew what to say in that situation.

Marshall wants to legalize cocaine and divide our state in to three separate Midwest states

After the debate I was left feeling like none of them really won me over enthusiastically and that it might not be such a sure thing that ruiner is gonna lose, which means whoever wins I will help get out the vote, because I don't want ruiner or that crazy RWer running from dupage who is challenging him in the primary as my governor in 2019!
I also thought it is great we have so many choices and the things they stood for in unity made me proud .
Thanks for checking in with your thoughts
