(In keeping with the tradition of the 2008 election season...all debates, primaries, and caucuses will have their own threads to ensure that the political forum continues to run smoothly.)

Discuss.

The last debate sucked and that is partly because there were like 10 people up on the stage. Who all is lined up for this one?

 

[Marx]

I'm pretty sure all but TPaw are returning for this one.

I don't have cable, guess I'll just have to watch something on Netflix instead.

Hrmm sounds like it is supposed to be important.

Anyone play Deus Ex Human Revolution, heard it is awesome...

It's going to be livestreamed on MSNBC.com and Politico.com. If you have Internet, you should be able to watch it.

I don't think he was complaining

I predict Ron Paul will win the debate and polls but be completely ignored by the media.

Corporate America rejection!

 

[hippie_hunter]

OOOHHH! Perry vs. Romney is interesting.

 

[The Squirrel]

Herman CAAAAAAAAAAIN!!!!

Spoiler

Yeah, I'm watching it online.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Never thought I'd say this, but point: Gingrich.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Oh Michelle Bachmann, you are no strong leader.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Why the **** is Gingrich doing good at this debate?

 

[hippie_hunter]

I still don't get how Gingrich is doing so well when he really isn't offering much in substance.

 

[SuperT]

Uh, did they just play an Anti-Legal Immigration ad?!?! WTF?!?

Ron Paul. You crazy old coot. I wanna party with you.


Those fences can become walls pretty quick. You're smart. You are smart.

After watching Bruno, Ron Paul doesn't seem like the kind of person who wants to party

 

[hippie_hunter]

Why is Rick Santorum even here?

 

[Franklin Richards]

For the jokes on Twitter?

 

[bunk]

The responses are always so general and vague at this point, it just becomes boring.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Why the hell are people applauding about execution?

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Mob mentality.

 

[Spider-Nerd]

Does anyone here other than Paul and Huntsman even answer the questions.

 

[dodgers2213]

they talk about how Ron Paul has no chance, but they gave Cain around twice the chances to speaking than Ron Paul....who IS in TOP TIER in the polls.

The debate was garbage. I liked a few bits of Perry getting put on blast and making himself look dumb

I thought Cain was the best about giving specifics. Romney came out looking the best and kissing Perry's ass a little will endear him to the Tea Party crowd. Perry danced around stuff with rhetoric and constantly had a "gotta take a sh**" smile throughout as his record was discussed. Bachman stuck with her "blame Obama for everything under the sun" routine. Unfortunately for Paul he came out looking like the crazy uncle on the stage.
