"The Rent is Too Damn High"

When one attends a debate, you expect a back and forth of the issues with a few attacks thrown in, but in New York State, you get a farce. And that's what happened with the New York State Gubernatorial Debate. I was going to ignore this, but in the end, I couldn't resist!

The race is coming down to the wire and everyone thinks of Andrew Cuomo and Carl Paladino as the two most prominent candidates, but here, they let EVERYONE on stage, from Client #9's, aka Eliot Spitzer's madam, to Charles Barron. In the end, it was Jimmy McMillan, aka "Papa Smurf" from "The Rent is 2 Damn High" Party, unfortunately, had the spotlight.



This format was horrible (whoever thought this format up needs to be banned from politics) and did not give the voters a fair opportunity to hear the candidates' positions, as well as for them to clear up any discrepancies. Yet, it gave me a good laugh, as with this campaign, a laugh is needed, considering it is one the Democrats will likely win in November.
