    Just getting caught up on last night. Lol. Too bad dude wasn't allowed to bring his witty social media interns on stage with him.

    For all the talk about him uniquely taking on Trump, everything I've seen so far is him getting bludgeoned last night. He doesn't have shit when someone else isn't writing his lines on Twitter.

    A man would never get away with the crap warren pulled. Does she have any proof of that fat broad  comment? A man says that he is done. Escorted off the stage. And all the times warren just interrupts and starts talking over everyone else. And the Hispanic moderator that torpedoed klobuchar? That was nasty. Why do we need five moderators?

    The hand raising has to stop. It enabled warren to get away with her behavior. (But the image of Bloomberg raising  his hand for permission with that look in his eyes... priceless)

    and the practice if your name is mentioned you get to talk is absurd and biased. Whenever a moderate said socialist healthcare, warren and sanders get a free turn. Happened over and over. But the moderates never got a rebuttal for healthcare with an option. But when they attacked billionaires in a veiled attack on Bloomberg, he got no opportunity to respond. They should all get two minutes to respond, period. This biased form of debating gives an unpopular policy equal time, but not equal time to candidates.


    "Reverse sexism!!!" Shut up. A man does this and he gets 60 billion dollars or the presidency.

    No one gives a flying fuck about you, personally, not in the context of really caring.  Stop fooling yourself that human nature is different for rich people to middle class people to poor people.

    So if you lie about a billionaire it's cool? You are crowned debate champion?

    Its good that he got low blowed, let's see if MB has it in him to come back.

    Warren certainly can fight dirty. Too bad her intelligence told her America wants socialism.  But she's really a capitalist.  Who TF believes a word she says.

    To be fair to her, she has to pull out all the stops. It's her last stand so she's going to do whatever she can to repel these evil white men. Similar to her Native American ancestors generations ago.

    Did you watch how MB responded to the questions he clearly knew would be coming?
    Even for those on here who are stumping for him, this had to be puzzling. 

    Also, he knew someone (most likely the old folks on the panel) were going to come at him for the reported remarks -- if he was not prepared last night to answer the bell on Stop & Frisk and You Supposedly Are Awful to Women, I just don't see how he can continue on.
    He will pay to, but I think he sealed the deal for people who were up in the air about him last night.  Looked lost up there.

    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Haha whaaaa. Just amazing. The reverse sexism is indeed strong. Anyone who thinks they wanted a female candidate beyond Hillary because of her baggage I say....ahhhhahahahaha, there's allllways a reason.

    Last leg? She's consistently polled as people's 2nd choice. Guarantee you she's in longer than Klob. She had to finally go for the jugular because she's consistently been cast aside and thank god she did. And all the talk that people wanted ol' Blooms or Biden because they would be best taking on Trump's bombastic bullshit and insults on stage and throw it back. Well, I think we just saw who actually did that last night.

    I agree with everything you wrote about the format and the moderators.  They were annoying the crap out of me.  Warren spewed some total bullshit about Biden and he was shocked, yet cut off when he tried to rebut.  I really grew to dislike Warren last night.  I think her earnestness is fake, her stories contrived and her tone shrill.

    Heh. I'd love to see your evidence that human nature explains the things you think it explains. Be sure to demonstrate causality!!

    If you are going on how a person presents themselves there is only one person on the stage last night who should get a single vote.  One person who didn't stammer through things, get loud about things, oddly switch topics mid-stream, generally appear to be ready for a yelling match, etc - and that was Pete.
    Bernie and Warren do both yell about shit a lot, no doubt.

    Not at all.  I was/am a fan of Hillary and passionately advocated for her.  You don't know much about me if that's what you think.

    I am actually watching and listening to how people conduct themselves. 
    You joking that Pete was on drugs does not change my perception that he conducted himself with a manner I think the office of President is missing and could benefit from.  We understand that you want the most extreme option and are passionate about it to the point of hostility toward all around you who dare disagree.  Seems to be a common theme with people wanting the most extreme options, on both sides.

    Regardless, fuck Pete. Enjoyed him and Klob trying to rip each other's throats out as well.

    Yelling's not a bad thing. Especially when you know what the fuck you're talking about. I'd yell, too, when I would feel like I'm taking Crazy Pills.

    You're the one asserting that human nature exists. Seems like you've solved a mystery older than Socrates. 

    Also, I'm reporting your post because it meets the legal definition of libel.

    Makes what more perplexing?  From a political angle, the only thing Warren and Hillary really have in common is that they are both D's and both women.  I don't see them being similar anymore than Amy and Hillary are similar.  They are completely different politicians to me.

    Ryan Seacrest is very put together. I don't want him to be president either.
