Joker Analysis: Mendive v Lippert

Joker continues to break down the video debates provided by the Coeur d’Alene Press Online. Today, he features the debate between state Rep. Ron Mendive, R-Coeur d’Alene, and Democrat Michelle Lippert, for Mendive’s House District 3 seat:

“Ok this debate is a total letdown after the Eberlein classic. Both candidates were nice, professional and respectful. Lippert seemed to win on points. Mendive fumbled when pressed to go beyond the talking points. Lippert did well by pressing him to give specifics and examples. Lippert talked a lot about new ideas and difference perspective, but she didn’t offer much in terms of specifics either. She came across smarter and better prepared. Mendive was a total gentleman and never lost his cool.” Joker’s complete breakdown here.

Question: Who would you support in this race?
