I'll give you a hint, Jack. It's not the one that involves touchdowns and field goals.
It's far more important to pay attention to the "game" that will decide where we will be four or eight years from now and the direction that our country is headed. All Americans should get out and vote and then turn on the TV to watch coverage of this historic election. No football game is more exciting to watch than the best political team on television!

Super tuesday is much more important to me than the superbowl. With super tuesday comes the possiblity to make history in our country. I am so excited I can not contian myself. I feel as if something great is about to happen. I have to say that Obama is the one that has made me so excited in the political process. He is an agent of hope and change. He has inspired me to once again believe in the political process in this country. Thanks to all you guys from CNN who has brought all of this into my home . My television set will be on CNN all day on tuesday !

Super Tuesday. Because that will be the day the Clintons fall from grace and the Clinton/Bush dynasty that has run my life so long as I remember. Jack, I'm 24 years old, and even I want change. Just because you are a woman, that doesn't make you an agent of change.

A choice between a make believe pretend "game" or a decision that affects not only the future of the US but that of the world.... Hmmmm..... Maybe that is what is
wrong with this country – too many people occupy themselves with sports and imaginary contests when the real issues are ignored. Yeah, my vote is with Super Tuesday.

Jack,

Super Tuesday for sure! Who cares about the "Stupidbowl" when there is a much more exciting game being played, and for much bigger stakes? This is the most exciting race in my lifetime and I'm 43. Besides, even though I love football, the most over-hyped game of the year is invariably a big snoozer unless your team happens to be playing in it!

Go Obama!

Jack;
I neither know nor care who is playing in the Super Bowl. The outcome in no way affects my life, but the Presidential election does in a big way. However, I suspect that many of those who know only about football will wind up voting in November, in much the same way that we once voted for high class president: on personality and not on issues, on which candidate they like and which they dislike. These are the swing voters who will decide the election and we had better take this into consideration as we pick our nominee.

Jack, you hit the nail on the head! The first strike was off but you did it on the second try. You cannot just simply let Bill and Hillary's crap go and become so welcoming. If he were to do that. he would lose a great amount of momentum! By the way, please remove Hillary Clinton's "Leading Cheerleader" (Carl Bernstein) from the panel, PLEASE!!!

Jack – Most definitely the Super Bowl. Just so I will have a moment to watch something I care about in which you will not be on the air with your "smug and all knowing" commentaries. I am sure Jack, that if you had your way you would most certainly “pundify” the enjoyment of viewing even the Super Bowl by coming come up with away to convince the television audience that neither the Patriots nor the Giants should be in the game at all. Because you Jack, of course know better than us poor fools. We need your guidance and opinions Jack, that way you have a job, I guess? You have single handedly taken away my other passion of late, which is watching your CNN network to gather knowledge and information for watching a wonderful political race for the Presidency and learning of these candidates. WOW, is there anything you like other than listening to yourself go on and on...The good thing for me is that when your commentaries come on, I get to go take a “bio” break... Try smiling or offering a suggestion rather than hiding behind your own rhetoric...Tell Lou, this Independent is done...You make me want not to vote, is that your hope?

Super Tuesday!

What happens Sunday is exciting. What happens Tuesday I may have to live with a lot longer.
