The October 9 Republican Debate
Thompson was shaky but adequate in his first debate appearance, says Mark Halperin, but overall it was Giuliani who dominated in Dearborn
Peppery on signature issue of spending cuts, salty on Iraq and Rumsfeld, but bland over all — he didn't dominate as in the last debate. More goosey than loosey (that is to say, he was spirited, but a little stiff). Because of poor acoustics, he requested that several questions be repeated, drawing unwelcome — and unfair — attention to the age issue. Proud, impatient, and looking forward to January.
