Thank you for the PSA. The four (4)debates are on my calendar. The conventions and the debates offer some of the only moments to hear what the candidates have to say without the filters and talking heads twisting the content of the message.

When I watch recorded television programs, the fast forward allows me to escape the political advertising. I will reserve judgment until the debates have concluded.

Well, I'm not sure I like the moderators. They're all left leaning and the domestic policy is probably going to focus on abortion issues & gay rights (both of which I support).

I'd like to hear more about bringing down the deficit and improving the economy. I want details, not sound bites or attack ads (which I'm 100% sick of and am now muting if on TV or deleting from E mail, etc.)

I didn't watch much from the GOP last week and will do the same for the DNC. I'm just too fried out already on this spin game.

Give me solutions, and I'll begin to listen............

I am very worried about the vice-presidents, both present and a wannabe, debating. My present vice seems to be way below in IQ then the enemy.

Let's hope the left-wing moderators ask at least ONE question about illegal immigration.

It is amazing that the left-wing moderators did not ask a single question about immigration in the 2008 debates.

Orville, illegal immigration has not been a real issue for years, at least not in the way you are thinking about it. Per Jeb Bush.

I didn't know we had a Lynn University. I wonder why they did not go to one of Florida's well-known or flagship universities?

I usually look forward to the debates, but this list of moderators leave me gagging.

The same old left-leaning, one-track-mind, foot-in-the-grave folks who refuse to give young thinkers with fresh ideas a chance leaves me flat. No thanks...I am glad I am a free thinker who has the knowledge and experience to understand which of the candidates relate to my political philosophy.

My mind is made up and none of these influence-peddlers will have the opportunity to tell me how to vote.

The very least they could do is give us "ignorant" voters out here a legitimate chance to decide who better represents us and our families or am I too stupid to know better.

The only interest any of we voters have in the upcoming election is whether we will have a job to feed our families and pay the mortgage and hopefully, give us a way to get out of this God-forsaken debt that has tied up our country in knots?

This would be a good time for an expletive, but I am sure you get the picture, or do you? Does anybody?

“It’s the economy, stupid” or, doesn’t anybody notice that we have a financial crisis of mega proportions on our throats choking us to death?

It is the economy and we have no middle class. If you don't know who you are voting for by now, I think you are lying. Everyone knows who they are voting for. If they claim they don't - they are voting for the bully in high school who cut the hair of a gay man and then forgot he did it...

Well, Romney specializes in sending jobs overseas. That is how he became so wealthy.
