    Nice edit...

    But ah it is evening now, and schmo, it is just too easy to elicit these types of responses from you :) Carry on. From here on out I will cease to acknowledge your pretentious postings, since you have no skin in the political game, let alone skin at all.

    Don't know how anyone can sit through these shit shows they call a debate. I tried and made it through about 15-20 minutes from when they started with the intros. Off the cuff bullshitting is all it is.

    Check their voting records, legislation the sponsored, laws they passed. Throwing out buzz words to get the audience in a frenzy tells you nothing.

    Not a bad venue at all last night. All 3 candidates had their opportunity to make their case to Iowa and by extension, the rest of the country who were interested. Hillary just doesn't look comfortable in front of people but behind closed doors, I think she has the makings of a Iron Bitch. Yeah, that's a good thing too. Bernie is just too far left to be electable and O'Malley should at this point drop out and play for a VP spot.

    The modern debate format is very poorly implemented. Each debate should be on a set topic with the candidates making their position clear in an uninterrupted concise segment and then the candidates questioning each other on their positions, pointing out problems in the opponent's position and explaining how their position was better for America.

    Statement, Questions, Rebuttal if the candidate feels necessary. Back and forth until the voters understand where the candidates stand on the issue in question.

    Moderators should be there only to enforce the structure and make sure the candidates stay on the target issue. Questions from moderators should be out of bounds. Statements by moderators about the issues couched as questions should be out of bounds.

    For multiple candidate debates the rules should be strictly enforced in a round-robin with the proviso that the single topic was not to be deviated from at all due to time constraints. We should have a debate a week for months before the primaries begin and then again for a couple of months before the general election with the nominees continuing to explain their positions to each other and to the American people.

    It sounds like a lot of debating but we're only talking about the person who will be leading the country for the next 8 years (practically speaking) and it's an investment we should be willing to make so as not to get too many nasty surprises after the fact.

    We could have had the issue of national healthcare clearly defined by both sides before the 2008 election and prevented years of acrimony after the fact. An acrimony that has substantially crippled America's ability to deal with the issues we face.

    I wholeheartedly believe the acrimony and crippling is part of the grand scheme by those in both red hats and blue hats to distract from the task at hand in favor of maintaining the status quo of self-serving political machines.

    Hilary's got all the establishment Dems and her peeps are out in major force in NH. If she loses the primary, I think she could be cooked, unless she's got some kind of firewall strategy for the next batch.

    If Hillary goes against Trump, I will root for Trump to win.

    What was she doing when Bill was feeding Monica with his penis? Fucking Hillary. Burn and die.

    Contrary to what may be custom in your homeland, we do not execute unsuccessful candidates here in the US.
