This will need a new poll soon....with only Sanders, Biden, and (for a little while anyway) Bloomberg. 

I think Bloomberg stays in.  He has the money.  Just a feeling that he is taking it to the convention, unless someone clears the 50%.

I think Bloomberg will listen to the data and wants Bernie to lose.  I think Bernie saying he won't take his $ pissed him off.  So I think Bloomberg leaves the race soon and backs Joe with a lot of $.  

If Joe wins the nominee you think he makes Bloomberg vp?

I would doubt it.  Woman or a minority is a must.  

I think SC proved, as well as Obama, we need an African American on the ticket

I'm all about it.

yeah I'm thinking Klobuchar.  Nice and safe.  

given what happened at her last (attempted) rally, I wouldn't call her safe at all.

I'd think maybe Cory Booker.  Perhaps Kamala.

Harris shot herself in the foot by dragging Biden's long ago gaffes to the forefront of the first debate for her 15 minutes of fame.

Being against bussing isn't a gaffe.  Kamala is the one who gaffed by thinking the policy fights of the 70's were going to stick.  

Hey...that little girl...that little girl was HER.

That was the moment that I was done with her.  

Can't stand those kind of written-and-rehearsed-and-applause-already-heard-in-their-head shit. 

Everyone get your zinger ready...
It's why I hate debates.

It's why I hate debates. 

Especially these debates with so many people. The only way to make a splash is with a “zinger.” Otherwise, you’re lost in the shuffle. 

I remember as a kid my father complaining that with Perot up there, the 1992 debates were too crowded and Bush and Clinton didn’t get as much time as they needed since they actually had a shot to win. Lol. If he only knew....

CAN I FINISH??

My favorite of these sketches (which I'd post but I unfortunately can't find it online) was a three-way debate cold-open (with pre-recorded segments because Carvey plays both Bush and Perot and there's quick costume changes that couldn't be done live). The only part I remember is the end when the three of them give their closing statements. When each one talks, the other two look at him with a queer eye, and the person talking turns into how the other two perceive him. 

As Clinton (played by Phil Hartman) is talking, Bush and Perot see him a hippie. He has tye-dye on, purple sunglasses, and he's smoking a bong.

As Bush talks, Clinton and Perot see him as basically Mother Goose. Woman's glasses and sweater.

As Perot talks last, Clinton and Bush look at him with a queer eye, and it cuts to the Mayor of Munchkin Land. It's hilarious.

The heyday of SNL was their political satire.  Will as Bush, Daryl Hammond as Clinton, Chevy as Ford, these were all so great. I do remember the skit.  It was all 'must see'.  You made sure you were near a tv at 1130.  Get home from the bar early, tell everyone to shut up at your house, whatever.  We always watched.
