Democratic Debate Tuesday

This Tuesday, CNN will broadcast the Democratic candidate debate from Boston at 4 PM PT. This debate, sponsored by CNN and Rock the Vote, will likely focus on the bloody week in Iraq, the GDP growth numbers and the larger economic picture, and "young" voter issues.

In case you can't watch the debate, the folks here at StudioGlyphic have put together this handy preview, encompassing 20 things to watch for:

John


Dick


Al


Carol

  1. Lieberman attacking Clark, Kerry, Gephardt, and Edwards for their wishy-washy stances on the Iraq War, with a focus on Clark.

  2. Lieberman characterizing his support for the Iraq war as a courageous stance to take (and possibly getting booed for it).

  3. Kerry and Lieberman attacking Clark's Democratic credentials.

  4. Clark getting defensive and clarifying his stance multiple times.

  5. Gephardt attacking Dean on Medicare statements.

  6. Dean acting hurt and surprised and disappointed in the attack, then retaliating with "I've provided more health care than all my Washington opponents put together in their 75 years combined experience."

  7. Gephardt and Kerry attacking Dean on statements about reaching out to poor white rural Southern voters.

  8. Dean responding with "White southerners have supported the Republicans for 30 years and what have they got to show for it? They need jobs, health care, and education--just like African Americans, Latinos, and every other American."

  9. Kerry attacking Dean and Gephardt on proposed middle-class tax "increases," with focus on Dean.

  10. Dean saying that most middle class people getting a small tax cut while property taxes have gone up and education quality and services have gone down.

  11. Kerry coming back by saying that Dean wants to raise taxes 20 times on the backs of the middle class.

  12. Kucinich attacking Dean for not supporting US withdrawal from Iraq, with the undercurrent of "I'm the real liberal here."

  13. Sharpton attacking Dean for being too white, with the undercurrent of "Jesse Jackson needs to step aside to make way for me."

  14. Edwards mentioning his millworker father.

  15. Kerry mentioning his Harley and extreme sport hobbies to pander to the Rock the Vote audience.

  16. Dean mentioning his Internet activities and Wyclef Jean to pander to the Rock the Vote audience.

  17. Gephardt using the words "abominable," "miserable," and "failure" when talking about Bush.

  18. Edwards mentioning his free college plan to connect with the Rock the Vote audience.

  19. Sharpton mentioning his child minister and youth activist background to connect with the Rock the Vote audience.

  20. Judy Woodruff or other questioner rebuking Clark or Kerry for not answering a question.

Yes, yes, I've left out mention of Braun, but no one attacks her, she doesn't attack anyone, and really, she seems like a very nice person.
