Why is this upcoming 12 candidate primary NOT going to be a disaster?

I was looking forward to the debates getting CUT in size. The cuts should have been made by the support numbers to a decreasing number of participants each time.

That would give the surviving candidates more time to get their points out with more substance. The yelling and overtime speaking would be cut down and we could see more substance.

I'll bet preparation for this next "debate" will consist of each participant memorizing zingers to counter each opponents.

All of the viable runners will be wounded and there will be scabs that will be scraped open in the GE debates.

This stinks on ice. I would sure love to be wrong.

Candidate Preference... hmmmm... What to declare?

I prefer one candidate base on views, proposals, and philosophy.
I prefer a different candidate based on likelihood to oust trump.

Which way to go? Maybe change my preference every morning based on my mood?

I'm can't decide.

Anybody else in this same fog?

What is your favorite quote for Debate #1?

If you hear a memorable line post it with candidate's name and approx time.

Lloyd Bentsen 1988> Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy, I knew Jack Kennedy, Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you are no Jack Kennedy. (referring to R-Dan Quayle)

Don't get so happy so fast...

Remember that most trump supporters are too embarrassed to admit to poll takers that they would vote for him... but they DO vote for him.

These polls suck. If you adjust your campaign tactics by them, then your campaign will suck.
