(45,806 posts)There are voters out there in TV land who believe what they're hearing! I've heard more lies tonight than I've heard for a very long time. I don't know if the candidates are just stupid, or if they're saying things they think the voters want to hear. The whole thing makes me sick!

(9,463 posts)...set of lies and made up ideas are the best lies and made up ideas we need to run this country.

(6,960 posts)This Repuglican debate is a bloodbath.
I'd say only Trump and Kasich look a little less bloodied (Bush, Christie, Carson are collateral damage).
This is the first one of these Repuglican debates I have watched ... 'clown car' is way too kind ... 'demolition car' is more accurate.

(6,960 posts)Trump won.
Marco Rubio really is one of the meanest, most bitter, uncharitable, extreme politicians I've seen on the national stage.
Trump is a lot of bombast, but I don't think he is as deep down hateful as Rubio.
Cruz got in some good punches, but he also took a lot of damaging incoming.
Kaisich looked the most reasonable ... but that is not saying much.
Bush, Carson, Christie ... who cares?
What awful bunch of people.
Democrats need to nominate Sanders because he will beat any one of this bunch and progressives will have the most progressive President since FDR, or ever! This is our chance -- we need to seize the day!
elleng
(130,732 posts)and cruz not much better substantively without the mean maybe.
AWFUL!
earthside
(6,960 posts)He comes across like a punk adolescent who tortures cats because he thinks it is god's will.
I think I have moved him to the top of my list of the most awful, rotten Repuglican presidential candidates.

yuiyoshida
(41,818 posts)of getting the nomination. Frankly, the GOP will probably fold their cards, and go with Trump, they have no one who will come out over the top, but Trump. Even if Trump were to pull out at the last second, there would be no one they would want to put up...that has any stamina at all.
