Round One: Granholm

Watched the DeVos-Granholm debate on the tube last night and was thoroughly entertained (yeah, that's right, if I had a life I wouldn't be doing this blog either). When the hour came to a close, the judges (me, myself & I) declared Granholm the winner.
She has a clear advantage because she's comfortable in a political setting, has been asked awkward questions before by others, and she has mastered the fine art of turning a question into a commercial for herself.
Question: "Gov. Granholm, how do you account for the fact that Michigan's economy is in the toilet and there's nothing but despair on the horizon?"
Answer: "I'm glad you mentioned the horizon because I challenge anyone to argue that Michigan, the Great Lakes State, doesn't have some of the most wonderful horizons in the United States. Those are horizons that draw tourists and, as you know, tourism is one of the pillars of our state's economy. And whenever you see a horizon, you know the sun's going to come up tomorrow."
DeVos, on the other hand, always seemed as if someone was accusing him of something dastardly. Well, Granholm did accuse him of molesting seniors with Alzheimer's, but everything else was pretty softball.
Nonetheless, he stood there with a fake half-smile repeatedly saying how much he was disappointed with the Governor's leadership.
Well, she was leading in the polls by 9 points before the debate. I bet the first poll after the debate shows she's increased her lead.
But don't count out DeVos. He didn't do horribly for a first debate. I'm sure he'll be better prepared for the second one.
Who knows, but the third, they might be choking each other. That would be too cool!
