Hollismason posted:Wait.. was there the lower candidates debate earlier this evening? Yes, but they barely count. Ironically the baby-table debates are better showcases for the candidates than the main debates because they don't have to fight for attention with 9-10 other people. It's reverse punishment for unpopularity.

I think the fact that CNBC trotted out Jim Cramer was the signal to the candidates that they didn't have to respect the debate moderators at all, as opposed to the basic respect they were giving to the concept of being in a televised debate before that.

Do Not Resuscitate posted:CNBC thought this would be a great opportunity to showcase its talent so we got treated to buffoons like Cramer and Santelli clowning around with their moronic schtick and asking absolutely retarded questions about ignition switches. Like I said in the live thread - Jeb! is the CNBC of candidates.

I thought the one woman in the middle of the panel, I think her name was Becky, did pretty okay. Although being reminded that Cramer is still alive and on television was a high price to pay to watch these debates.

I'm a simple mouthbreather. I don't understand why asking pointed questions with specific information in a "debate" is proof of liberal media. Moderator: Tell me why your three page tax plan is so awesome! (Muffled by candidates balls in moderators mouth) Trump and Carson seemed to have lower energy than Bush on this one.

In retrospect it's really weird that Christie blew up with his "who gives a poo poo about fantasy football when ISIS is trying to kill us" rant because all of the candidates were fully aware that this debate was supposed to focus on domestic economic issues and not foreign policy. Regardless of whether or not anyone thinks FanDuel is important it's at least within the pre-agreed topics of discussion.

Christie's "BUT ISIS EXISTS" rebuttal was dumb as gently caress and could be thrown at literally any topic that night for similar effect. He's lucky the audience is loving dumb.
