Politics Debate #5

[crandc]

Table set for debate watch party. Brownies, fresh picked apples, lemonade, iced tea, beer, guacamole, salsa, chips, cornbread and butter. In kitchen two pots of chili, one meat, one vegan.

 

[Hoopguru]

Who will be the winner and loser's tonight?
Im thinking Pete, Booker & Amy will do well and I think Bernie, EW & Joe may be a little off. Just my gut guess, nothing more.

Any crackers or hot pickled chili peppers to go with that scrumptious chili? Also, any lemon wedges to go with that iced tea? The chili peppers are going to require copious amounts of some sort of iced beverage. Should the eater not designate his/her preference in advance I should think that the nearest iced beverage within reach would be greatly appreciated.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Michael Bloomberg will win.

I have lemons. Chips, no crackers. But if you think my menu inadequate, you are welcome to come over and bring the missing items.

How far away from Lake Oswego are you?

Tired of listening to Warren already. Can we please talk to Bernie please?

Losers will be anyone who has nothing better to do than watch this group of unelectables field softball questions designed to pump up Biden.

Wait, you can tell them apart?

Tom Steyer is on my screen telling me as a billionaire, he speaks for the common man.

What these guys doing on this stage?

The Dems may have a hard time producing a candidate better than they did in 2016.

I can't stand half these people.

Booker/Bernie/Yang are the ones that stand out to me.

Amy is having a great night so far.

Bi-Partisan vittles!

They keep asking her questions. Why she gets so much screen time is baffling to me. This is yet again, too many candidates.

 

[barfo]

Joe seems on-message tonight. It's his birthday.

These questions are idiotic. Who cares?

My top 3 also, but I do like Warren a lot.

My observations so far.

Why does MSNBC hate Yang so much?

Is Biden having a stroke on stage?

There are too many. I would send Steyer and Gabbard home, and maybe Corey also. I really like Corey, but he seems like VP material to me.

I dunno what this party is doing. The key factors for next Nov will have to be unity and cohesion that Trump has destroyed. Having 10 candidates at a debate this far into primary campaign season is only perpetuating that perception of a divided country.

And yet again Steyer is talking for the poor and working men. Dude, no one believes you with your net worth.

 

[barfo]

Why does MSNBC hate Yang so much?

Because he's gotten little speaking time, you mean? Or something else?

We aren't really very far into the campaign. The first primary is still a couple of months from now...

It is kind of awful that our campaigns last more than a year.

2 months away. Cant remember 07. Were there this many dem candidates then?

Wikipedia tells me there were about 8. Candidates like Steyer and Yang probably would not have been invited to a debate back then.

[barfo]

So far only 6 candidates have qualified for the December debate. (not Gabbard, Steyer, Booker, Yang)
