So in the end while hammered drunk I feel like this was less substantive than the CNBC debate.

I guess they didn't actually complaint about the liberal media but goddamn this was some tunnel vision poo poo.

This debate was totally awful and yes, it was just talking points repeated over and over again with no basis in reality. The faster the GOP dissolves into nothingness the better for every single American, no questions asked. There's no salvaging to be done here.

Bring on the Trumpocalypse.

with the gop a foreign policy focus is always going to be the most nauseating I think. not that their domestic stuff is much better, but their foreign policy talking points are just unimaginable.

what's funny is when if they get to the general and just copy the democrat like romney did with obama.

I stand by my earlier assessment that Rubio and Trump did the best, Jeb! cleared the bar his past performance had set, Cruz and Carson did very poorly and everyone else did meh, including Rand who scored points with his crowd, but nobody cares.

In terms of what plays for people that are going to be voting in the GOP primary, I would argue that it does.

it was really cute when rand insulted christie about the bridge

nobody's ending statement mattered they were all forgettable trash. maybe the reagan namedrops will help cruz

jeb did his darndest but the party doesn't have the strength to look their frontrunner in the face and say the things their research tells them will be winning issues for the democrats after the primary. unless they're disastrously wrong in the opposite direction from the ways they've been disastrously wrong so far, that's a really bad sign for them

He's explicitly ruled out an Independent run - "No matter what." Maybe that counts as being stumped.

There's still plenty of dirty tricks the RNC can pull in the next year and atthe convention tostump the Trump, but assuming he clears those hurdles and play's ball all the way...
