Anxiety + Republican Debate

I get intense anxiety in situations I feel are awkward. I had to distance myself from 2 strangers in a Wawa when one said "So how are things?" (If anyone ever asks you this question, either walk away or pretend the person didn't ask it, it's a terrible question.)
So naturally tonight I watched the CNN-YouTube debate, which first off is an awful idea. I say this because the people who are educated and interested enough to submit a question to such a preliminary debate are the kind of people who think they are hilarious and clever, and usually aren't: Case in Point

The arguing in the beginning made me very uncomfortable, which made me question my interest in watching a debate in the first place. But for the sake of my education and my vote I survived. Mitt Romney looks the part, but I doubt he has the experience, plus he's an idiot. The two guys on the end (Hunter and something with a T), there was a reason for them being there. Giuliani sucked in the beginning but brought it back towards the end, still don't know how to feel there. McCain is so into Iraq he should probably run for president there. Huckabee was very Christian, but he spoke well and had very clear views. Fred Thompson... And Ron Paul probably doesn't have a shot in hell but he's got some great views, and he'll have my vote if he gets nominated (www.ronpaul2008.com).

So overall it was a waste of 2 hours I could have been playing Mario Galaxy.

don't they tell the people asking the questions what to say?
