Dem debate 2/25: Last chance to stop Bernie

[Bitek]

Tonight's debate on CBS is the last chance for the field to stop Bernie, who will likely be in an unstoppable lead a week from now.

Predictions?

-Bloomberg... Ha. Can money buy debate skills?
-Warren wildly swinging haymakers at everybody but Bernie?
-Amy-Pete hateF at the after party?
-Biden, last chance to put up our shut up. Try not to look like angry old man yelling at clouds.
-Who's the first one to say "communism"?

Thanks, I thought I was in some time warp on the west coast. No mention by competitors other than tonight.

Way too early to call for Bernie and I doubt the debates are moving any voters. The process is so freaking long now that people just don’t care.

You don't think people other Trumpzombies care about getting rid of Trump?

Every time Bloomberg opens his mouth my cringe somehow gets deeper.

 

[sportage]

So far CBS is doing a terrible job. CBS needed a better more organized system other than people talking over each other. Bad CBS.
I think they wanted a game show not a real debate.
This process makes everyone look like idiots and does NOTHING to help the cause to inform the viewers. I feel sorry for all the candidates up there.
I know that Fox is Trump loyal but since when did CBS sign on with Trump???

Happened to tune in a few moments ago; when I tuned in every single candidate was talking at the same time .... what a shit show

 

[K1052]

Did Bloomberg...buy the audience?

 

[hal2kilo]

I thought it was going be everybody against Bernie, but it turned into a free for all. Warren finally spoke, Bernie whining now. He he.

Yet another way Bloomberg is like Trump: He says delusional things about being the best and expects people to believe him.

 

[hal2kilo]

Styer begging. Sort of hinting around reparations. From a guy apparently invested in private prisons.

 

[DisarmedDespot]

This format really, really sucks.

 

[hal2kilo]

This format really, really sucks.

NBC really nailed it. This indeed sucks.

 

[Ken g6]

This format really, really sucks.

Candidate (I'm not saying which one): I supported a bad thing...
Debate Moderator (interrupting): We're going to a commercial.
Me:

Actually it is nearly over, esp given all the delegates that will be awarded on super Tuesday (eg, next week CA, TX, VA among others) coupled with the bandwagon effect means the contest is effectively over way before most people realize.

Here's a good article from a never Trumper about lessons learned from 2016:

CBS is making Donald Trump very happy tonight.
Trump, over in what? India? Acting very presidential.
Meanwhile, CBS is making fools out of the Democrats.

Regardless, someone needs to drop out.
We don’t need confusion at this point.
Bloomberg needs to go but leave his money, Steyer needs to go, Amy needs to go.
And CBS needs to go back to HOW TO RUN A DEBATE school.
What an insult to news.

 

[hal2kilo]

Too late Amy.

 

[Franz316]

What an abomination CBS is running. I'm not sure if I'm watching a debate or a game show. Five people talking over one another, the crowd booing and cheering non stop, moderators talking over one another.. seriously wtf is this garbage. I had to turn it off.

Bernie dancing with the other third rail of Democratic politics. Israel policy. All weighing in now.

 

[sportage]

Going up against Trump is like building a bridge out of an erector set. You need all the right parts, a plan, a design, enough nuts and bolts, then hopefully you end up with a bridge.
It’s going to take a lot of parts and nuts and bolts to build that bridge to defeat Donald Trump. At this point and going by this debate it doesn’t look very promising.

And Amy.... I’m tired of hearing how she defeated this opponent and that opponent in her past. Will that speech be her concession speech on election night after she loses to Trump?

The Israel lobby gives to both parties, they are like the foreign policy NRA. I don't think it's limited to just the Democrats.

well that cleared up just about nothing

Completely agree.
Pardon the stuff left in the editor.

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

I presume that after this one that the next debate will have all but 2 or 3 left?

Finally get to stop seeing some of the stupid ones that are still in after this.

True, but Trump has them kowtowing to him in moving the embassy to Jerusalem & supporting the settler movement. They're his.
