Elections ***Second Democratic Primary Debate play-by-play thread: Night 1. ***

[PolishHeadlock2]

This one caught me off guard.



Surprised to see Pete B and Biden doing the worst against Trump in Texas

 

[kpt018]

He absolutely was not a moderate. He was more conservative than Bush on a lot issues. He just looked moderate compared to people like Ted Cruz

Fair. I should have said more moderate than his counterparts and moderate on certain issues.

 

[Fawlty]

Fair. I should have said more moderate than his counterparts and moderate on certain issues.

I think his bipartisan tendencies make up for his over the top conservatism and add to the moderate image. Kind of like Romney, it's a big plus for me.

 

[kpt018]

Agree Fawlty.

 

[Jack V Savage]

Temperamentally moderate, but, yeah, pretty extreme on issues. Like Huntsman.

I'm too lazy to properly research and write this up, but since I bagged on Gabbard I will point out something exceptional about her campaign. It seems like they really know their SEO (search engine optimization) game. Her adwords buys like "Democratic debate results" from June are smart, her deep and wide "People Also Asked" results compete with campaigns spending much more than hers, and her organic search results suggest her people are motivated and know how to write optimally. Part of that is the generous way Google rewards smartly directed, textually on-point "grass roots" activity (ironic lawsuits holla!), but it takes an understanding of the system.

She's currently polling at less than 1%. The people who prefer her are mostly left wing Internet nuts, non-voting both sides zombies and Republicans with fascist tendencies.

You sound like just another dip shit leftist lock stepper that can't think for themselves. Republicans do not support the woman. She is the candidate Conservatives should fear the most in a General Election.

Tulsi won her debate and instantly became the #1 person Google Searched after her debate. Then Google SUSPENDED HER ADS... THAT NIGHT! For hours after the debate, the information from her campaign was stomped on. Google accounts for 88% of searches in the U.S. and that number is even higher if you are a Democrat. It's at monopoly status. No wonder she is polling at less than 1%. Google has yet to provide a decent answer I why they did it.

Tulsi Gabbard on the issues:

• Anti-War in a much stronger way than virtually any other candidate on that stage
  
• Pro-Bernie Sanders Medicare for all
  
• Pro Keep Families Together Act (On Immigration)
• Pro Off Fossil Fuels Climate Act (On Climate Change)
• Pro Campaign Finance Reform
• Pro-Choice
• Pro LGBTQ rights
• Pro legislation to eliminate undergraduate tuition (Colleges)
• Pro Marijuana
• Anti Venezuela, Iran, etc... Foreign Interference
• Pro Tax Increase on the Wealthy

It's people like you that attack the brightest stars on your side which give Conservatives hope. If you burn the woman down, I am good with it. You don't have another person on that stage that has a chance of bringing down Trump and you don't even know it.

Here's a taste of Tulsi Gabbard for those that don't know her. I don't fear this getting out from this board as most of the Left leaning members are complete whacks anyways.



You must also think Jimmy Dore sucks. I appreciate Leftist like you. You turn the actual rational thinking left leaners away.

There is the Tulsi Gabbard Commercial... I hope the truth does not stick with Leftists and they don't adopt her as their choice.

 

[Richie Madano]

Yeah, I'm expecting it at this point. Could be disastrous for America.

Nah. Things are going very well right now. 4 more years of Trump will be fine. Maybe not for you though if your mental health is fragile.

Damn.... talk about a hang over the next day. You nailed it.

 

[Nameless Ghoul]

Marianne Williamson...ftw! I'll see you all on the battlefield of love!

 

[Renard]

Almost all of them. That's not a dodge and I'm being serious. Nearly every question was targeted at finding the downsides of every policy or to drive wedges between the candidates.

For example, a question would be framed as something like "your medicare-for-all bill is estimated to cost $3T each year. How will you pay for it?". It should be framed as the proposal stands, which is to replace insurance premiums. The question itself leaves viewers with a negative impression and the candidates then have to bring more context in.

(and I'm open minded but skeptical of medicare-for-all, but that's just an example)

I presume MSNBC and NBC were the ones picking the questions right? They must figure it's ratings gold to word things in the most controversial way possible and get the candidates to bicker with each other about it.

I'm not sure but whoever they are they suck. I take your point though, maybe I shouldn't blame the DNC.

I think I would be done after 10 min.

When this is all over, after Tulsi gets corruptly schlonged by the Democratic Party establishment, Trump should offer Tulsi an advisory position of some sort. I don't agree with her on everything, but I believe she offers a fresh perspective that is lacking in both the Democratic and Republican Parties. What the Democrats are doing to her is a disgrace. She deserves to be heard.

 

[Ice That Jaw]

Finally, they are starting at a proper hour. Fuck you ABC for keeping us up so late on a weeknight.

To Trump, Tulsi is basically Nikki Haley. I doubt he could even tell them apart in a room. I doubt most voters could either.

There is the Tulsi Gabbard Commercial... I hope the truth does not stick with Leftists and they don't adopt her as their choice.

I’m cool with her views besides immigration, abortion, and reparations
