1. EXACTLY! Bravo!

[AlbertCat]

2. Guffaw!

What a circus! (even this!)

[YoungDemCA]

3. I lasted 1 hour

Ugh...

[SoapBox]

4. This is the one that scares me.

But the great news is...since the party has been taken over by bat-shit KRAZY PukeBaggers...he won't get anyplace.

[MADem]

15. He is the scary one, because compared to the rest of them, he sounds halfway normal.

It's only when you pull him out and look at him on his own you can see how fringey he is.

[appalachiablue]

24. Kasich is the one to watch out for, deceptive I believe and no 'mr. nice guy'. He did

some awful sh*t with schools and education in Ohio for one.

[spooky3]

27. ditto. Anti-union, anti-education, anti-public worker.

He just has a nicer veneer than some other candidates.

[appalachiablue]

28. Correct and why some will ignorantly consider him a moderate and possibly electable.

K's just not as rabid, but more tolerable seeming and probably more clever than the others, the danger. He was a consultant for Goldman I believe. That's says a lot. Thief.

[spooky3]

30. agreed. And anti-woman, too (see link).

5. he is an awful governor

and I couldn't watch him

[LittleGirl]

6. Just finished watching it

We need to make sure none of these clowns become President. They scare the living crap out of me. War, war and more war. Gawd!

[wordpix]

10. yes the neverending war party & don't tax the rich

so the poor will do the fighting and the poor and middle class will do the paying, but we won't be able to pay enough to cover all the wars they want in the ME and N. Korea, so we'll go further in debt.

[dixiegrrrrl]

7. Uhhh..it was not a "debate" by any standards.

A very large percentage of the questions were either related to or directly drawn from some political attack launched by the candidates at each other.
These are not policy questions, they are amplifications of someone else's attack and do not belong in anything that is put forward as a "debate".

It was like being at a dysfunctional family dinner...
"Judy says you said ........... What's your answer to that?"

I agree with Kasich.

[MADem]

16. That's what passes for "debate" these days. Maybe the DNC ain't so stupid after all.

Why should we give the GOP a surfeit of General Election "take this shit outta context" soundbites?

[yuiyoshida]

8. It was like being in a

kindergarten court, trying to find out, who hit who, and what was the reason...and Republicans want America to take them seriously?

[ZM90]

29. ROFL best description of it.

but we are all know the real winner of the debate was Bernie Sanders' Twitter Account.

[d_legendary1]

9. What debate?

The moderators were asking questions based on "who said what about my momma". Not once did they ask sensible questions such as "What would you do about the jobs situation" or "How would you improve health care in this country". It was all about "Donald Chump called you ugly in a Rolling Stone piece. How do you respond Carly?" and that was that.

So again, what debate?

[wordpix]

11. and not one mod asked how the warmongerers plan to pay for all those wars

what a bunch of nimcompoops, the mods and the clowns running

[liberal N proud]

12. That is the only advice I would take from that clown

[Geronimoe]

13. Kasich won't tax the hedge fund managers

He claims doing so would destabilize the markets.

[PatSeg]

14. And I did

Have to preserve my sanity.

[oldandhappy]

17. Amen!!!!!!

I lasted 15 minutes and then went to mute. Read a book and took a peek now and then. Clicked the voices on for about 30-seconds now and then. Argh.

[bullwinkle428]

18. Best description of last night's debacle : the Moron Thunderdome!

[ananda]

19. Or never turn it on ..

.. and watch Phryne Fisher and The Republic of Doyle instead!

[beac]

21. Didn't know of "Republic of Doyle" before.

Love anything with Sean McGinley. Thanks for the rec!

[southmost]

20. and yet americans kept watching.....

and view ratings records were made/broken.....

[Dont call me Shirley]

22. Don't bite the greedy hand that feeds ya, Johnny.

[appalachiablue]

23. Woof! Enough!

[Initech]

25. Finally!!!! Some actual honesty from a GOP politician!

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

[angryvet]

26. Netflix
