Dorkington Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 I wonder if they'll let anybody in who isn't old and white. I think there's only 5 Democrats officially running this year, and yeah all of them are relatively old and very white. It'll be interesting to see if that has an impact on relating to people of color.

keepthefaith Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Trump will be hard to knock off of his perch in the polls and early primaries as long as there are so many other candidates in the race. Basically Republicans right now are 25% Trump and 75% everyone else. As long as the 75% stays so fragmented, Trump will probably lead. Some of the other candidates need to exit early in order for a couple of the other stronger candidates to challenge Trump. I think Huckabee, Christy, Walker and Kasich will do best tonight and I'm also really interested in the 2nd tier debate as well. Always liked Jim Gilmore but he's been off the radar screen a long time.
GG Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 In all fairness, can't that be said of a majority of voters anyway? Majority? No. Usually a candidate's background and policies line up with the supporters' views.

Considering how lame this whole process has become, why don't we go full gatortard and just have the audience vote off one member from each debate until we're left with a nominee.

That would be awesome. Maybe they can enlist a reality TV star for the proceedings?
birdog1960 Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 That would be awesome. Maybe they can enlist a reality TV star for the proceedings? they are. its called "fox news".
IDBillzFan Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 they are. its called "fox news". Says the guy still upset that Ed Shultz had his show cancelled.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Didn't I read somewhere that the Clintons are worth $175M? That's a lotta scratch for a woman of the people.
reddogblitz Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 George Pataki was governor on 9/11 in case anyone forgot.
TakeYouToTasker Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 George Pataki was governor on 9/11 in case anyone forgot. I'm pretty sure that it's very unfair of you to say that George Pataki caused 9/11, when we all know that it was George W. Bush's fault. Also, George Takei was helmsman of the USS Enterprise.

Azalin Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Election 2016: Where the Republican Candidates Stand on Higher Education. But do they include the classics as part of a recommended curriculum?

Also, George Takei was helmsman of the USS Enterprise. I'm listening to the debate and George has reminded us that he was governor on 9/11 several times. That's what I was referring to.

Nanker Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 Carly cleaned their clocks. No way she gets kept off the main stage after tonight. On another note, Rick Santorum still looks like he forgot to take his dose of Duco-Lax.
