I have wondered for so long, why do "pundits" waste breath speculating about things to come that will make themselves apparent soon enough? Finally, someone agrees with me! Also, we agree about Assange. I was astonished. Loathsome human being.
I don't know if I'm foolish, snooty, or prissy, or maybe all three, but I view the rise of the (alleged) debate tracks well with the corruption of our political processes and the rise of cardboard politicians
It's more attributable, I think, to the rise of political consulting, marketing and focus groups....and television. The debates may be a symptom, but not a cause. Thanks for your comment.

I don't disagree but this feels like a chicken/egg discussion. I would argue that the debates furled the growth of the others.
