3rd Democratic Debate - Houston

[MillerEP 30570]

Beto is trending because his gun confiscation comments ignited a fire. I imagine he'll get crucified in right leaning media.

CNN is pure comedy at this point. 

“Well, Joe Biden didn’t collapse on stage so that reassured me he can pull this off. Yeah, he was confused and didn’t make sense many times but he is the front runner so what can you say?”

[Bama Chick 28596]

My god. I don’t even know where to start with this garbage.

[Hank Kingsley 21089]

Good night for Beto. 

Castro is such a dick. He's done.

Got invited to a $500 fundraiser for Castro a few months ago.  Glad I passed on that.

I won't be surprised if they all turn on him.  That was beyond the pale.

From the way Castro went after Beto before and the way he went after Biden tonight, I can only conclude that he's known all along he doesn't have a chance so he went up there gunning to take people down with him.  I think there's a good chance he just assholed his way out of a cabinet post.

Yeah, because they loved the last corporate, moderate Dem that ran. 

Hilary Clinton was a polarizing, out of touch candidate. 

Joe Biden is a nice, well liked guy, and can relate to those working class mouth breathers that will decide the next election in ways that Warren and Bernie never will.

Good for you Booker!  Demonize the tenor of Castro but legitimize that people are questioning if Joe is the answer.  Awesome!!! Booker rocks.

This is true, whether he's a better candidate or not.

[RollLeft 5045]

CNN: Are you saying Biden is now too old to run?

Booker: No i've heard him meander for years now.

 

hahahahahahahah

Dude I’ve got invites for you. Pete, Beto, congress races etc. don’t give into the lower level shit. Just ask.

And yet warren and sanders plans are more relevant.

Castro is getting SAVAGED on TV and social media.

[Chuckie Finster 22765]

Oh nooooooo.

Who gives a fuck? Nobody who pays attention to right-leaning media was gonna vote for Beto regardless. This is an issue that is rapidly swinging in Beto’s direction, and one that he is passionate about.

Sorry your pew pew games might get less fun

[Chuckie Finster 22765]

Oh.

CNN crying about Booker's comments!!! hahahaha

[tantric superman 4668]

1) I hope Bernie has finally gotten that loogie out of his throat.  Jesus Christ.

2) Sorry, I know he's a goofball, but Booker is the anti-Trump.  

He talks like me.

3) I wish Biden would drop out and let Buttigieg or Booker move into that space.

[Hugo Stiglitz 23367]

Castro needed to go hard AF at Biden.  Someone needed to do it.  What do you think Trump is going to do to Biden in a debate? It would be a blood bath.  Castro jumped on the grenade.  He’s not going to win and it hurt him but shit, Biden needs to be challenged by an asshole on national television before Trump.

[tantric superman 4668]

I kind of agree with Hugo on that.

By the way, I'm Hispanic, and I'm not scared of anything.

I just wanted to point that out.  I didn't like the three or four times the moderators all talked about Hispanics being fearful.

You white supremacist bitches come at me, bro.

 

 

 

[bolverk 29822]

Gotta say, overall, it was a well-run debate. I don't think anyone "won" it, but my impression is that - among the Democratic base - those who hurt their chances were Castro (undoubtedly), Yang, Harris, and Biden (maybe).

[RollLeft 5045]

Landrieu is a schill.

Beto and Warren won this debate.  Bernie’s sore throat was unfortunate because he debates well.   Harris did better than expected.  Pete was meh.  

Pete was awesome, Harris was kind of insufferable.

Castro needs to drop out tomorrow.  I'd never forgive him for not running for anything in 2018, but Jesus--that was inexcusable.  

Beto had a good night.  He's very colorable as a VP candidate.

Fuck--we might be stuck with Biden.

[Satchel 6949]

The nominee is not likely to be very mean. Although, I found Castro's ageist remark offputting,  his selection as the VP nominee has pragmatic appeal. He's smart, mean, Latino and would not jeopardize a senate seat,

[Chuckie Finster 22765]

I think it’s going to come down to one of Biden, Warren, or Beto. If the next few months are relatively drama-free, then it will come down whether or not Warren’s ascension can finally pass Biden’s freefall. But if there is another mass shooting, Beto has positioned himself (and has the necessary platform and skills) to skyrocket into the conversation. Obviously, no one wants a tragedy like that to happen, but it’s personally the only way I see anyone other than Biden or Warren on the ticket.

Get that fucktard off a thread about Dems.

 

[A-Tex Devil 2465]

I am still puzzled as to why Booker isn’t getting more run in the polls. He and Buttegieg seem like the best options, with Warren, to me.  I agree with Jemele’s tweet on Biden.  And when he loses Iowa, SoCar and NH, he will be done despite his national polling.  

[Hugo Stiglitz 23367]

 

[Hank Kingsley 21089]

Castro playing dumb about taking a personal shot at Biden. 

 

I know debates get heated and a little nasty. Go back to previous primaries and I'm sure there are plenty of low blows. But the Trump era is a completely different animal, and this will doom Castro. We are in unchartered waters with 2020 election. 

 

[BradInATX 9208]

Beto with a home run tonight.

Biden did a lot better than a lot of you want to talk yourselves into believing. Warren was solid. Bernie was Bernie. I think all of the top 3 probably feel good with their performances.

Pete had a couple of great points but came off as too wonky. Nothing memorable. Hillaryesque.

Harris and Castro both probably ended their campaigns.

Booker, Klobuchar and whoever I'm forgetting.. eh. Forgettable.

With his performance tonight, and with an assist from Briscoe Cain, Beto may have taken the place of Kamala Harris as the #4 in this race.

[SameSame 1711]

It would be better if Biden and Bernie were not up there ever again.  Those two coots need to find something else to do.

And Castro certainly has no more business near the stage.

He was bad but still exceeded everyone’s low bar expectations.  His eye didn’t burst, he managed to keep his teeth in his mouth, and he savagely butchered an answer on a slavery question.  

Very presidential

He wasn't even bad. He came across as the respectful elder statesman. He's one of the few, if not the only candidate that knows when to change gears. Even in his old age he knows when to ramp up the emotion and when to back down to calm. The rest of the field struggles with that. Most are either perma-angry (Castro and Bernie), boring (Pete), or shithoused drunk (Harris). He even held his own in policy debates and landed an uppercut on healthcare. He probably had the 3rd best night after Beto and the ever-steady Warren.

This asshole is doubling down.

Biden did great in pundit land.

Just sayin'.
