You makin stuff up now?

No, but if you thought I was referring to you as a douche then so be it. Read through the last couple of pages and you'll see who else was trying to get in on your bet.

Only if it's a dark horse with no name.

We'll call it a push in that case --- assuming @transplantbillsfan is okay with those added terms.

i don't think that's fair. he is adamant that anyone is going to beat Trump. i say if a dark horse catches it and loses, he should have to wear the avatar of your choosing for a decade.

Sounds good

This past Tuesday and Wednesday may have been the last time that viewers nationwide saw Marianne Williamson warn of " dark psychic forces," John Delaney spar with Bernie Sanders on healthcare, or Kirsten Gillibrand condemn Joe Biden for a decades-old op-ed.

 

Only eight of the more than 20 Democrats aspiring to be their party's presidential nominee have qualified for the debate stage in September, and many others are not close to making the cut.

 

Higher qualification standards are set to slash the number of presidential candidates in the debate set for Sept. 12 and 13 in Houston to around 10.

 

Candidates must exceed 130,000 individual donors and receive at least 2% support in at least four qualifying primary polls but Aug. 28 to make the September debate, roughly double the standard for the first two rounds: 65,000 donors or 1% support in three polls.

 

There is a chance that the debate could take place over one night rather than two, but the Democratic National Committee has not clarified what number of qualifying candidates would trigger a second night of debate.

 

The eight candidates who appear to have qualified for the September debate, hosted by ABC in partnership with Univision, are: 

• Former Vice President Joe Biden
• New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker
• South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg
• California Sen. Kamala Harris
• Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar
• Former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke
• Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders
• Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren

What if a “legit” third party candidate gets in the race?

I would call for a push there as well -- it would change the dynamic completely imo.

Agreed

[SoCal Deek]

Wow! That’s quite a line up they have left for the next debate. Sheeesh. Looks to me like they need to change the rules to allow candidates who are trending up rather than down the polls. For example, I can’t believe ANYONE thinks Beto or Amy should still be on the stage. Neither has any chance.

There's not a racist bone in my body, I just call a spade a spade.

If that ain't the height of hypocrisy.  You're a complete moron, and you blocked me because you were so offended at being called out for your racism.
