    and here's your NON FOX spin for the day.....Donald Trump's support from Republican voters tends to come from men, seniors and those having a high school education or less, according to results from an online NBC News/SurveyMonkey survey of more than 3,000 GOP primary voters.

    and then there's the raceist vote....He's also leading with white voters. Twenty-three percent of white Republican voters say they choose Trump as their top pick for 2016, versus 10 percent who support Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and nine percent who back Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.

    see I told you so !.........The only major demographic group where Trump lags behind is with Hispanic Republicans. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio leads with 19 percent of that group; Bush comes in second, with 14 percent; and Trump is third, with 13 percent.

    so he's leading the way because of white republican voters who are old and under educated, HAHHAHHAH I love the media !

    The Official GOP Debate Drinking Game Rules according to Rolling Stone. Better read and understand the rules before the event gets underway. What will everyone be drinking? I have a fresh bottle of Knob Creek Bourbon I'll be cracking open.

    I can understand why the candidates who are in the early non-prime time debate are pissed. Fox News is deciding who the voters pay attention to and who debate whom. That definitely seems wrong to me. They should have both groups debate during prime time, or both outside of prime time, perhaps separated by a day, day/opponents selected by random draw. That would be fair and lend itself to democracy... not that I expect Fox News to give a shit about that.

    Hmm, maybe I'll rethink my game, and join you two with some green instead. That sounds a little safer for a weeknight. LOL.

    I don't know that Tiabbi/Rolling Stone will do a similar game for the dems (probably not given Tiabbi's bias, although to be fair, he will go after any politicians if they're idiots), but I'm sure we can come up with something!

    According to the rules it sounds like an IV drip will be the only way to consume enough liquor to keep up.

    Seriously?
    There won't be 10 people crowding the stage.
    Donald Trump won't be there.
    Science won't be denied as heresy.

    That's enough to take the entertainment factor down quite a bit.

    Yeah, not shit. The republican debate is basically a freak show. The democratic debate will just be boring politicians.
