jim webb - "black lives matter"

Ugh, Webb. I put up a statue.

Am I right that there haven't been many commercials?

You're listening to five of them.

not sure if i'm depressed more that cooper explained what glass-steagall was or that he definitely needed to explain to the viewers at home what glass-steagall was

Hillary is running for President "Of course we have to, but ..."

Cooper switching up the direct either/or of the BLM vs all lives matter once he got to Clinton is a world of crazy goddamn bullshit and I'm pissed

Make every person up there answer that question you fucking jerks

Hillary represented Wall Street, alright.

yeah it seemed like we lost the plot there

back in the late ninety nineteen ninety nines

I think Sanders called her "Sencretary Clinton."

"i never took a position on keystone until i took a position on keystone" is so poetic john kerry could have written it

Been a lot of backseating this debate.

Sanders' style is terrible, hillary's totally got this "responsible grandma" schtick down

Weeeeeebbbbbbbbbbb.....

lol 'i wouldn't have let the economy collapse, i would have hoped the free market would save itself' ok

Sanders' appeal is his lack of polish.

Hey, what is Trump tweeting? Some good stuff? Surprised they're not scrolling as as breaking news.

"i never took a position on keystone until i took a position on keystone" is so poetic john kerry could have written it

It almost sounded liked she'd rehearsed that line. You'll hear it again in the coming months.

I know it's not happening, but now would be a PERFECT time for Biden to parachute in while "The Boys Are Back In Town" plays, land onstage in front of everyone else, give finger guns and say "'sup".

Dog ate Chafee's homework

Meanwhile, Americans across America ask ... what is Keystone?

oh god

Webb really needs to stop the bellyaching about speaking time

Sanders style reminds me of how irritated I would be hanging out with these dudes

how's Chafee's style?

They should put points on the podium, like in Jeopardy!

idg Webb. Has his whole campaign been based on getting screen time in this debate? Because he's been doing diddly shit out on "the trail."

a stick of margarine in a toaster

xpost

Chafee can't use the "I'm new" excuse for his debate performance

i know the cw is the dems having fewer debates has hurt them and i agree w/ that and i know the cw is that trump has brought alot of eyeballs to the gop debates and conservative issues and i'm sympathetic to that but i still think the dem field being so much smaller than the gop clown car is a real advantage, tonight at least. also can kinda imagine a pathway for o'malley now, i can definitely see his game, stealing what works from sanders and positioning himself to the left of hillary. triangulating as it were.

not gonna work

chafee needs to get his guarantee of an ambassadorship to france or whatever for an endorsement and drop out

My Uncle Gary would agree with Uncle Bernie about college tuition debt.

yeah i don't think it's gonna work either, just i can imagine a scenario where the field is down to him and hillary

Yeah, fuck colleges. They should shut them down!

I forgot the audience was there, was quiet for a while. They watching Cubs highlights?

I love how Bernie pronounces caucus the way he'd pronounce Secaucus.

I think we can all agree Jim Webb won this one.

man i forgot hillary's role in chip, that's a pretty strong...chip to have on the campaign trail, shit there are probably kids who got healthcare cuz of chip that'll be voting next year

Yeah, Webb, get the fuck out of here, and take those others with you.

I think we can all agree Jim Webb won this one.

― rap is dad (it's a boy!)

won a Mona Charen retweet

god damn every time they cut to him i'm more flabbergasted - why the fuck is lincoln chaffee running for president?

god i hate don lemon

maybe pay better attention to my posts? schip is the preferred nomenclature btw.

I thought Sheryl Crow did a nice job transforming a rote patriotic ritual into something sort of real, warts and all. I look forward to her next single, "I Love Denmark.:

And I told you Chafee was a Whig - he quoted John Quincy Fucking Adams! Can we introduce a giant saw and cut off the right side of the stage?

Kinda wish Hil had taken the bait to explain why restoring Glass-Steagall is largely meaningless political theater - it isn't even fighting the last battle, as she suggested - but she did get across that her economic plan is the smartest, whether or not the best politics.

Waiting for Webb to challenge Cooper to a duel.

oh boy Snowden questions
