Actually, it was a debate, and not an argument, which is a loose interpretation of the word “debate”:

de·bate (d-bt)
v. de·bat·ed, de·bat·ing, de·bates
v.intr.
1. To consider something; deliberate.

Now, if you mean you’d like to see more of where they disagree, well, that may be worthwhile. However, I personally loved the debate (not “bickering”) format, because they actually were able to address issues, although I don’t agree with many of their ideas, I do, however, believe that Cain, and to a lesser degree, Gingrich, both want to do what is best for our country (even if they aren’t sure what it is yet), or at least improve it.

It's not either agree or bicker. They should have called this the Lincoln-Lincoln debates. They didn't challenge each other on anything.

The process of rational argument is hygienic. What we got instead was a televised fundraiser/gabfest. It was interesting for about 20 minutes.
