Selene Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Since we will all, more than likely, if we watch the SHOW, be watching with an OL global village device and this thread can be an internal blog on the Art of Political Practical Psychology 101.If it works great.

Michael Stuart Kelly Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 It is about a couple of hours after the debate.Frankly I didn't think Trump was at his finest. Not bad but not great either.I saw a lot of pundits do a lot of blah blah blah saying the same thing I felt, but many were really down on Trump.(Frank Luntz was one of the absolute worst--in full manipulation mode. His focus group was unnaturally inactive compared other focus groups he normally runs--kind of like a bunch of paid stooges this time around. The folks were mostly bland and/or silent except when called on to bash Trump. Then they got passionate. )Then, feeling a bit down, I went upstairs to my computer to see Drudge.Woah... Lookee there. Drudge has a poll running.I voted. Then I took a screenshot. (Here's the link, but it probably won't work after tonight or maybe tomorrow owing to the name of the URL.)In fact, I voted twice to see if it was going to be a fair vote, so notice the words, "Thank you, we have already counted your vote" at the top of the screenshot.Even on an off day (at least I felt he was off), people are voting that Trump won the debate.

MichaelAll Trump had to do in my opinion was to not blow himself up and he did not.I think he stayed on message and did some counter punching.Megan Kelly and the lesser Wallace should be ashamed of themselves.I gave up on sausage boy a long time ago.I thought the level of discourse was also high level Michael.A...

Michael Stuart Kelly Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 My favorite quote about the debate so far comes from Ann Coulter (on Breitbart here).Jeb looks more like Caitlyn Jenner every day. Good Lord!Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, you saved yourself a lot of boredom. I muted most of it. It makes more sense to read the commentary now than watch mostly nothings trying to be somethings. The already somethings were the two medical doctors--Rand's gotta do something with his hair--and Trump, both of whom Trump trumped. Christie--hair problem too--gotta do something about everything. Trump's hair actually works. That's a wonder. If he ever changes it he better wait until after the election or he'll have no chance. Like I said, his hair's a wonder--a wonder and a nice touch of enhancing mystery. You see, that mild expression of vanity humanizes him enough to make the rest go down--so far. Americans yearn for a human in the White House, subconsciously; it's been so long they're a little consciously confused on that, but many remember Kennedy.--Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please do not run it through your semantic filter Greg.This was an important issue in the 1960 debates between Nixon and Kennedy.We did a number of rhetorical studies that established that the folks who listened to the 1960 debates on the medium of radio thought that one of the participants was the clear winner.In terms of the arguments offered, what did you both think of the "debate that is a press conference" on the radio?A...
