Lugar-Mourdock Debate: What Debate?

Why even call it a debate? You let people ask the same questions that have been asked and answered dozens of times previously by both candidates. Each candidate has his stock answer to these questions that he regurgitates on cue. This isn't a debate. Tonight's event was nothing but a media availability where people with stupid questions got to hear the candidates provide their scripted messages. I learned absolutely nothing new about either candidate. The only thing that can be said is that neither candidate dirtied his underwear, drooled or foamed at the mouth during their one-hour televised appearance. To sum it up, it was boring. Enough said.
