The News Journal posts more videos from the candidate forum. Part 1 of the debate is posted here.
Both Coons & O’Donnell speak on oil dependency. Coons supports alternative energy. O’Donnell says she supports alternative energy then contradicts herself
Both candidates speak on abortion. This was Coons’s strongest answers. He got a huge cheer in the overflow room when he answered. O’Donnell says she’s pro-life then says her sister had to have an abortion to save her life. It looks like the video cut off O’Donnell’s answer about supporting snowflake babies. Like most of her other answers O’Donnell is all over the place here.
Christine O’Donnell does not want to privatize social security, she seems to support Al Gore’s “lock box” and comments that we can raise the retirement age because Valerie Bertinelli appeared on the cover of AARP. Coons comments that privatization would be a disaster and speaks on the positive role that government can play.
On the education question O’Donnell supports charter school and says children shouldn’t be trapped in failing school systems. Coons expresses support for RTTT.
Hopefully the NJ will also release more video from the forum, especially the House candidates. You really should see Urquhart in action.
