War, economics and full term fetuses are such a hopeful picture of my future.

If only there was a skills competition with a shooting gallery, this would be the best night ever!

So what's the consensus on RM...of the Pubs, who do you like best? Trump, Bush, Rubio, Cruz seem to be getting the most attention.

Man I just don't know this election. I don't really like anyone from either party. I guess for me, it will come down to the Supreme Court. I think a few of the old coots are set to retire soon, so I'd rather a Dem appointment a new one, than a Pub. I suppose this means I'm on team Hillary. Sigh.

Kasich gave a great answer on Medicaid, but I'm a little worried about Graham. He might need this more than the others: http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/ ... raphy.html

This is something that could easily swing either way. By 2020 four justices will be well over 80. This should be a bigger issue than most of the questions thus far.

Maybe I'm missing something, but isn't the SC of the US always the reason to vote for Democrats?

I don't know about the best, but I clearly dislike Huckabee the most, as I expected with shit like this:
This, by the way, was the exact same quote I saw in a Penn and Teller episode from a right wing asshole regarding world peace (start at 7:50):

Megyn Kelly, best candidate tonight. So stoic. So blessed.

I like none of them.

But from what I have seen tonight, Bush, Kasich and Rubio have done the best. I missed the first 45 minutes, however.

I can't see how anyone can say that Trump did well.

In this day, it could be scary to see what a Pub president could do to the SC in 8 years. I think that has been one of the biggest reasons for me leaning to the left this entire century so far.

Even ignoring all the ridiculous things actually said by the candidates, this was some of the worst television since last Sunday's episode of True Detective.

I knew it was time to turn off the TV when "Fuck you Frank" appeared on the screen.

I think some of the pundits are missing the boat on Kasich. He's crazy likable. And his response to the gay marriage question will appeal to many younger Republicans.

Only if she'd agree to abort our mutant fetus afterwards.

My fault for doing this but:

I looked up the video so i could see the exchange about trumps comments to women. There was a youtube video up. I read the comments.

People eat his shit up. Just the biggest rubes, assholes, meatheads love this fucking guy. are there enough people out there that think there is no line between a meathead asshole frat boy and not being politically correct? My god. I see comments calling the moderator horrible words like dumb cunt and excited about how trump owned her etc...

Im frightened for the goddamn world i live in. Sure, its the comment section on the internet but he also leads the fucking polls.
