Democrazy posted:My serious analysis is that a secret winner of this debate might be Bernie Sanders. While he didn’t do anything spectacular in the debate, he didn’t do anything too bad, and debates were never going to be his strong suit, anyway. He also is likely to benefit from Biden’s meltdown, as there has been some polling showing an overlap between Biden and Bernie’s support. Hopefully he gets through the next debate alright and gets a chance to show more energy in September when the stage isn't so crowded. Edit: if I'm Biden's campaign manager I'm telling him to start listening to his debate coach or I'm quitting before he ruins my reputation.

KIM JONG TRILL posted:14 people have already qualified for the 2nd debate. The next debate (second debate) in July will have the same requirements and rules as the one last night. I'd be a little surprised if almost everyone didn't make it off of cannibalizing the polling or donors from the no-namers who aren't on stage. Sorry Gravel. The first debate of the second round of debates will have stricter rules and will occur in September. I think 538.com estimated 10 candidates are on track to get in? The media keeps referring to the debates by rounds, so it's easy to get confused.

SimonCat posted:Court packing has been brought up several times. Can someone explain how this doesn't lead to the court continually expanding every time a different party has control of the Congress and White House? And also it totally would but a 20+ SCOTUS would do a lot to minimize the importance of each individual judge.

Groovelord Neato posted:do people actually remember how that went down or? I should clarify, in a hypothetical unified Republican government after the Democrats pack the court, absolutely they would spend the time to do this. The unified Democratic government after the SCOTUS has been packed to 9 Conservatives, 8 Progressives, and 1 to 6 Thomas-esque Wildcards, maybe not.

generic one posted:Just as a casual observer and infrequent poster, I’ve gotta ask, do you read the posts in this thread, or just skim for tweets and article links? ‘Cause, it’s all over the place. Some dipshit even suggested gulags for people who said they’d be fine with Warren if Sanders wasn’t the nominee. I don't think the gulag post should really be taken seriously.

Cerebral Bore posted:OK. While you're at it, would you also care to explain why Israel has an absolute right to blow Palestinian women and children to smithereens whenever they feel like it? Warren and Bernie's policies on Israel are mostly on the same side, and I think she'll be a more effective president.

Who would you say has the closest Israel stance to Bernie's among the candidates on stage Wednesday and Thursday? Preferably one not polling at 1%. That's what I mean, and you all know it. Edit: anyway back to my original point I don't think this thread feels dog pile-y at all.

Cerebral Bore posted:If somebody starts pulling obvious dishonest bullshit then they deserve to be called out for it. There's also an element of pattern recognition here, because a lot of the poo poo we see it the exact same poo poo that was pulled in 2016, such as the "well Bernie and X are basically the same" claim that we can see on this very page.

I mean, okay, I don't feel like enough people are going to do that to matter... but even if they do, so what? She'll still be polling at low %s and I don't think 'kooky' candidates hurt the party as much as people seem to think they do.

Gripweed posted:How can all the sub 1% candidates justify staying in? It's one thing for Marianne or Yang, where they genuinely have something different to say. But Delaney? Bennet? They have nothing to offer to anyone. Weirdos like Yang or Williamson are selling likely selling books or increasing their personal 'brand'. edit: Like, that's literally what Biden did - keep running no-hope presidential campaigns for a couple cycles until he got picked for the VP spot, which would have usually have made him the heir-apparent if it wasn't for cough cough ahem ahem.

VH4Ever posted:More: I know he's governor of Montana, I mean who the gently caress is Steve Bullock. Edit: I think the bigger issue for me is that the same posters who are always complaining about double standards want to give the wine aunt a pass on the "Defeat Trump With Love" plan because she might be anti-imperialist based on a tweet. Anecdote isn't evidence but all my wine aunts talk a good game but are the epitome of NIMBYism, white feminism, and white savior liberalism.
