New York Times Iowa Debate

The article that I read was about the Democratic side of the final debate in Iowa for trying to usurp the title of being the new president of the United States. Some of the topics in the discussion were how the different social classes of Americans are so separated and how the Democrats want to be less divisive. Although the cadidates were down each others throats, they still managed to stay polite and scrupulous. However, they needed to keep in mind in order to reach the pinnacle position in all of the country, they needed to be respectful and open minded. The three top Democratic candidates are Barack Obama, Hillery Clinton, and John Edwards. Although they're on the same side, the still have differing views. Off screen, they connive and weasle they're way out of dealing with the media. They come up with well fabricated excuses as to why they do certain things and why it's right. The final debate in Iowa is in a huge capacious room filled with press and spot lights. A shy person's hell on earth. Constantly worrying about tripping or falling in front of everyone and ending up in a hot, sweaty, and smelly cast for weeks. Then afterwards, having a limb that suffered from atrophy.
