Eh, they are a HUGE voting block for the Dems, answering how you address issues that effect those communities is important for anyone trying to get the nom

Why does de Blasio keep thinking he's going to get the Beto vote.
also that audience question was simple but a good one.

Not all quiet on the Democrat's social media. Tulsi has some barbs (harken back to "the fix is in" in this thread.
But Trump's been pretty absent from his usual invective, first hour

Yang's on the register too. He debates tomorrow

Ryan with the massive fail

edit: good ninja She is an ideologue, I don't think her audience matters, I imagine that she will say very few things in this campaign (or the general if it gets to that) that she doesn't actually believe in. In this case "that's a complex problem, we should do some research" is honest, but also probably terrible politics.

I realize I could check in three seconds but since you're all here, the second debate is tomorrow right?
|
Maddow is barking up the wrong tree with these Mueller questions. Pelosi is shitting a brick right now, because she knows that this is a terrible issue for democrats.
Edit: Delaney gets it.
|
lol Delaney actually just came out and basically said "these are stupid questions." excellent!
|
Moderators and their questions are so low quality

De Blasio currently has lead position in the race for Santa Claus.
|
NYT has been tracking who has been getting the most speaking time. At first it was Warren by a big margin, but now it has balanced out and Booker actually has had the most speaking time.
|
Tim Ryan and Beto O'Rourke were much more of dullards plain and boring uh they did not perform up to the energy level and engagement of the other candidates.
|
in the closing statements we get to the "well I actually like America" glad we found it.

They sounded like asking Santa Claus what he would do about the Grinch on Christmas. I really hope his media team put up a montage with cocaine Mitch looking all evil and crafty.
|
I had low expectations for this group of candidates, but my god, Beto is just distractingly bad.
|
Clearly the moderators heard the complaints about giving Warren too much, they did let her finish though.
She was ok, Booker prob was the best considering expectations and plausibility of getting the nomination. Although Delaney telling Maddow to stuff it was great lol.
Beto and de Blasio were just...
