CNBC Republican Debate

[seedubs1]

Camacho would be better than a lot of candidates on either side...

President Camacho would still be light-years better than any of the ignorant children being trotted out by the Dems.

Fiorina is definitely insane as well. Terrifying. Absolutely terrifying.

And I don't get why the American people as so dumb. The ones that like her are the same ones that believe CEO's are the root cause of all of Americas problems.....

Trump and Santorum jump to mind, Huckabee and a few others are just there to sell books/speaking tours and possibly get a TV show.

I can translate this thread -

"Oh Wh~Wh~Whaaaa!
There's nobody PURE enough for me to even consider voting in this election. I'm just going to sit on my hands and let Hillary win.
Whaaaa!"

Hurray lessor of evils. If it comes down to Hillary or Trump I wouldn't vote Trump even if my vote was the one that put him over. Just because someone plastered an R next to their name this week doesn't make them worthy of our vote. If Repubs nominate a shill and Hillary wins we'll just be sure to keep and obstructive congress in place for the next 4 years and hope our Republican base can wise up next time around.

And I rest my case...

I find it funny Reince is out there complaining about CNBC.

Hey Reince... you chose the restaurant. That's like knowing there exists a Good Denny's and a Bad Denny's in every town... and you picked the Bad Denny's... and then you complained that the food was awful and the staff sucked.

I don't think Fiorina is insane. I am more terrified of any Democrat in the race than I am of her. She's not my preferred candidate. But if she were nominated I would vote for her. I do not believe CEO's are the root cause of all America's problems.

I think I've said this before. It is a fact that the next president of the united states will be either a Democrat or a Republican. It is highly unlikely that anything can create a climate in which a third party candidate has even a remote chance of winning. Yes, that really does make this a choice between the lesser of two evils, but that is the practical reality. I can vote third party as a protest vote, and I think that's fair. I wouldn't blame the people who are discouraged with the two-party system and vote third party. But the reality is, America doesn't care about my protest vote anyway. It does no practical good.

So, when it comes to the general election I will evaluate the available candidates against my weighted values and preferences and determine which one is most and least preferable. Even if I hate a candidate, unless that candidate is precisely, equally detestable as the competitor, I will vote for one or the other. The only exception to that is if I think a better, third party candidate can realistically be elected.

So far in this campaign, as detestable as a few republican candidates are, even fewer are equally as detestable as any of this crop of Democrats. And those few are very unlikely to win the Republican nomination anyway.

Between a socialist and the ***** who hasn't gotten over her sister having that house fall on her, I can see myself voting Republican.

Ya. I would have expected Reince to pick venues that favor the establishment candidates over the outsiders and TEAvangelists (did I spell it right?)

 

[Woobie]

Maybe he thought CNBC would favor the establishment people. And Christie did do well. But you can't put lipstick on a pig and expect much. Bush just isn't that great, even in a good light.

 

[JS1911]

I agree. People like Huckabee, Kasich, Bush, Christie and Santorum have no business being on the debate stage at all.

Yes a picture of a baby it's quite the compelling case.

When's the Libraltarian debate. Or maybe Hillary already won that one?

Hey! This Libra will have nothing to do with Hillary!

I would pick an "insane" Fiorina before I would pick HRC.
