poll: Who Won the Cicilline and Doherty Debate?

Tuesday, October 16, 2012

 

Who Won the Cicilline and Doherty Debate?

  •     294 vote - Col. Brendan Doherty, Republican
  •     108 vote - Congressman, David Cicilline, Democrat

Doherty and Cicilline went toe-to-toe in a television debate. While many thought the former defense attorney, David Cicilline, would have the upperhand in a debate, the former head of the RI State Police held his own in the far reaching debate.

Brendan Doherty hit Congressman Cicilline on his record both as Mayor of Providence and his partisanship.

Cicilline hit back that Doherty would vote with the GOP House leadership. Your turn to vote - who won the debate?

Obvious huge win for Cicilline. Doherty is NOT ready for prime time. He doesn't have a grasp of the policy at all.

Dan Wilson

Doherty WAY MORE LIKEABLE. Cicilline's talking points seemed to go over like a lead balloon. Malchi clearly is on the same^**%* as his hero. Cicilline had to rely on a huge NOTEBOOK for policy. This guy ain't no wonk - he's a BS artist.

I can see Doherty as our next congressman and someone that will do a great job.
Cicilline has been in political office for 18 years,its time for him to go with all his lies and corruption!

Why not blame Providence's financial difficulties on those who have groomed Doherty, who provides no evidence of being an independent or critical thinker? What makes anyone think repeating the same distortions ad nauseum makes someone a leader? Methinks your poll represents the kind of reader who comments here and at the Journal way more than it being an objective measure of who made the most valid points during last night's debate.

Congressman Cicilline did a great job last night and I'm happy to support him! Mr. Sionni why don't you go back on Twitter and tell some more lies. Usually when someone makes up lies about someone else it's because they're trying to tell the truth about themselves. You're part of whats wrong with this country - someone who just keeps on taking the unemployment benefits from the State of Rhode Island instead of looking for a job you lazy baboon. Isn't that why you told Gemma you'd just help him for free because they state pays you! Gosh - hypocrite.

anthony sionni

lol this isnt about me brian,but for the record , I am unemployed cause the company I worked for went out of business and I have been looking for work daily, I volunteer for a lot of campaigns, nothing wrong with it,

You should stop supporting a liar and someone who is corrupt,your whats wrong with this country!!!
