I find it so funny Carson is still in this. He already looked checked-out at the last debate. I guess there are always more books to sell, more relatives to stab.

I guess there's still the one on the 28th for true last gasps/complete breakdowns so we probably won't see anybody throw a punch, but this is probably the last one with enough time left to actually shift the polls at all and what with all the focus on Ted Cruz, his Canadianness and his Goldman Sachs entanglements there's definitely some room for action.

I've watched every minute of every debate so far but I am seriously considering not watching the undercard debate tonight.

Huckabee, Santorum, and Fiorina??? It's the trifecta of candidates that I find listening to and watching PAINFUL.

Fire these clowns into the sun and give me an undercard debate of Rand Paul vs. Lindsey Graham.

Friendly tip: if you hate yourself enough to still be watching the kiddie table debates, you might want to think about seeking help.

Also, it's pretty disappointing that the cycle of poll surge, scrutiny, decline is playing out as normal for Baby Hitler, I was hoping he'd go the distance.

I'm gonna watch it to see if Carly's gonna try to make yet another baby debate -> real debate bounce.

I agree with a Boosted_C5 post.

It really is the Trumpocalypse.

Seriously though the Kiddie Table is loving painful, no way in hell I'm watching that. I'll let this thread give me highlights/lowlights (same thing really).

Honestly I felt the last early debate was frighteningly more substantial, specific, and harrowing. All the talk about increasing national security measures and domestic surveillance and Internet man hunting of dissidents

Some real dystopian poo poo showing more of where the party wants to move

Well, luckily Carly Fiorina has moved there to replace Lindsey "Massacre The Browns Where They Lay" Graham, so we get to have some more talk about the impending world war.

GOLLOCKS!
Yeah, but the last undercard was only so substantial because Santorum was able to play off of Lindsay Graham's foreign policy insanity. Without Graham there, there's no point in watching it for the entertainment value. Fiorina feels like just as much of a hawk as Graham, but she's no substitute for the real thing. I might have watched if Rand was going to show, as he hasn't been given nearly enough rope to hang himself yet, but nope, he's thrown a hissy fit and I'm not gonna bother.

There's no one to make them look stupid though. If the moderators weren't scared shitless of pissing off the RNC, yeah it would be worth watching. But there will be no huge embarrassing fuckups from those three. Just stump speeches and lies.

Fox should use Rand’s logic against him: “but Rand, you said that 5% was indistinguishable from 8%. So this new poll that shows you at 5% could just as easily have you at 2%”.
