subtly or not so subtly have been doing in all the debates. Not sure why he didn’t express equal outrage withe similar types of baiting in the other debates?

Personally I do not like the debate format at all, and prefer the town hall type venue

The debate format IMHO is waiting for a gotcha moment, and where the candidates are on the issues seems to get lost

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

That's because he is a Putin devotee BannonsLiver Jan 2020 #69

Yeah, I caught that too during the debate; callin CNN villainous & shameful for that is bein kind!! InAbLuEsTaTe Jan 2020 #3

Hi mvd Jan 2020 #9

ABSO-FUCKIN-LUTELY!! As I've said all along, Bernie & Elizabeth are stronger TOGETHER!! InAbLuEsTaTe Jan 2020 #12

lol tag team underway. first bernie is blacklisted now he is getting lots of attention nt msongs Jan 2020 #6

Cooper wouldn't get off the distorted "made your money in oil and coal" stuff for Steyer, either, coti Jan 2020 #10

All good points... thought Steyer did VERY well last night. Congrats & good luck to your candidate!! InAbLuEsTaTe Jan 2020 #13

Steyer was great kwolf68 Jan 2020 #18

I believe one of the best things Steyer did was look directly Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #14

It's what happens when people stop believing a campaign's veracity. The Valley Below Jan 2020 #15

As opposed to outright lying about your record? kwolf68 Jan 2020 #19

The moderator really degraded herself there and I was sorry to see it. Aaron Pereira Jan 2020 #20

I agree Aaron Pereira, Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #21

Villainous? sheshe2 Jan 2020 #27

Yes villainous Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #28

Turn off your TV. sheshe2 Jan 2020 #29

Tell that to the rest of America Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #30

"Tell that to the rest of America" sheshe2 Jan 2020 #40

Another one of those questions that twists what you said around. George II Jan 2020 #32

;) sheshe2 Jan 2020 #38

Bazinga! George II Jan 2020 #33

Yea, great come back George because if I don't watch T.V. no other American will. Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #36

We don't see other Americans being as critical of CNN or calling them "villainous", "depraved" or... George II Jan 2020 #44

Then you haven't been paying attention. n/t Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #47

What we saw didn't match any of those definitions. CNN "depraved"? CNN "wretched"? George II Jan 2020 #35

They're pushers. Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #37

Wha? Sanders came off as being surly, so they're "pushers".... George II Jan 2020 #42

CNN doesn't want their big pharma commercialized gravy train to end. Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #45

Oh, so now we're punting and deflecting to "big pharma"! That's too funny. George II Jan 2020 #46

That's most certainly a motivation for their one sided prejudiced questions, Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #50

And you have evidence of that I'm sure. I'm a "genius", but an open-minded genius. I don't see that. George II Jan 2020 #66

Pushers? sheshe2 Jan 2020 #48

"The Pusher" Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #51

I am hurt that you did not resond to my post. sheshe2 Jan 2020 #53

I have no idea what you're talking about. Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #54

Never mind. sheshe2 Jan 2020 #55

Just for the record my definition of "pusher" is what you originally responded to Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #56

No. sheshe2 Jan 2020 #58

One man's (Matt Taibbi's) opinion. I thought it was the best yet, probably in part because.... George II Jan 2020 #31

Did you forget that Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #34

E.W. to Bernie: "I think you called me a liar on national T.V." oasis Jan 2020 #39

Elizabeth called Bernie a liar. Uncle Joe Jan 2020 #43

Oooookie dokey. oasis Jan 2020 #52

LOL boomer_wv Jan 2020 #41

You know what's villainous and shameful? Taibbi's podcast cohost Katie Halper calling Warren an highplainsdem Jan 2020 #49

Katie Halper is awesome melman Jan 2020 #59

Awesome for calling Warren a dishonest, impetuous snob? highplainsdem Jan 2020 #61

I think her analysis of this situation is spot on melman Jan 2020 #64

But the peopel who dont' like sanders will eat it up booley Jan 2020 #57

She blew it. PassingFair Jan 2020 #60

Warren is done as far as the primary madville Jan 2020 #63

Two campaigns blame the media a lot. No other campaigns attribute their issues to Blue_true Jan 2020 #62

Blame the media, question the polls, rinse, lather, repeat as necessary. LanternWaste Jan 2020 #65

So a politician can call it fake news and that's that? mathematic Jan 2020 #67
