    you super libs think the Dems are going to be any less amusing when its their turn to blame everything on the other side?????

    the democrats are going to have an actual discussion. bernie sanders is all business all the time. there are no lunatics that have announced for the dems yet. the gop field is full of them.

    my only concerns is the dems are going to talk over the heads of the misinformed, uneducated fox news crowd and single issue voters.

    there will be no USA USA USA chants, there will be no calls to bomb the middle east back to the stone age, there will be no calls to kill the iran nuke deal, there will be no benghazi scandalmongering, so yeah, much less entertainment for sure.

    If we could just get rid of the party system, we could have something like a bracket style set of debates. There are 16 candidates. Rank them based on whatever polls you want. Four candidates debate one night. Then 4 more 2 nights later and so on. Once the field gets riddled down after Iowa, then you can probably fit the rest of the candidates on one stage and not have to worry about anyone being left out.

    10 people is too many. Nothing is going to be revealed tonight. It's great for people like trump who doesn't know how to debate. Even though every one will listen to every word, he doesn't really have to say anything with only 60 seconds to answer. And honestly, it's not fair to jackals like Lindsay graham and whoever the hell else doesn't get to debate with the top 10.

    i think everyone should have a chance to debate on the main stage. if i were in the race and i had raised less money and was polling at like 2% and i did not get to debate the likes of trump, i would be fucking irate. fox news is already playing the early kingmaker, and i have a fundamental disagreement that a media outlet should be dictating which candidates get their voices heard.

    It wasn't even a debate. It was pre prepared statements and answers they all gave. Staying on topic was a major problem as well...

    Guys and gals, I would definitely substitute the green for the liquor. That much alcohol will probably put you in the hospital. So yeah, take the illegal substance lol.

    Bowl is packed and ready to go! ...though I may also go with a shot or two for the truly "whoa!" moments.

    I'm just not sure I'll be able to withstand two hours of it (the debate, that is).

    Wow, lol.

    Christie, Rand, Kasich take round one. Bush is a bumbling fool just like his brother. Trump is funny and insane.

    Yeah I didn't get to live it for real so I do my best to recreate it :smiley:

    And yeah, he rubs me the wrong way no matter what he's saying. Rubio and Trump too.

    Kasich has the most to gain here, and I feel like he will make the most of that opportunity.

    I kinda like Rubio.

    And agree with CH1 about Trump!

    Also, I don't have the rules handy so I'm just getting high and watching :dizzy:

    My impression is that they are asking contentious questions because they know they have captured a very large audience and they want to keep the hits coming.

    What a wild ride so far. Bush was struggling, did a little better with his answers on education.
    Trump still cracking me up. He about made my head explode with his shot out about the Iraq War.

    Gotta say that I've agreed with at least one point from most of them.
