  1. CNN Yutz just said '…..Wolf Blitzer will be taking us through as only he can"
    True enough I suppose.
    Will open a beer and try………

  2. If it starts with
    " He called you a whore"
    " She said you were either insane or a liar"
    I'm out …………

  3. Big, not small, forward, not backward; upward, not forward; and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!

  4. I just got home. I am watching this on CNN Go. I'm afraid it's going to boot me out after 10 minutes. Is it letting us watch the whoel thing? Or is there some other way to watch?

  5. Oh For Fuck's Sake with the Transcripts and the back-and-forth insults and the tax returns and the other simple bullshit. There's genuine, nation destroying problems out there and one of these people will have to decide how to cope with them.

    I'd like to know how. I think it might be important.

  6. Clinton has nothing to gain by releasing those transcripts. She will get skewered either way and she knows it. Not releasing them gives her advantage because there's less fodder. And Bernie is being disingenuous about this.

  7. Calif. just voted for a raise to $15 minimum, but it won't fully go into place for live seven years. That's absurd.

  8. Dang this is awesome.

    Also, Bernie is off his game, Hillz is not. But he's raising her game, pushing her to the left.

    As a macro point, the fact that Democrats are arguing over whether to raise the minimum wage to $12 or $15 is a major lefty victory.

        1. Monique Junot: I figured if we had nothing to say to each other, Wolf would get bored; go away. But instead he uses it as an excuse to put his testicles all over me.
          Lane Myer: Excuse me?
          Monique Junot: You know, like octopus? Testicles?
          Lane Myer: Ohhhh. Tentacles. N-T. Tentacles; big difference.

  10. Won't someone think of the children? For $3.50 a day, you can put a gun into the hands of a child who would otherwise go to bed without one…

  11. @Marcie Wheeler: "CNN sucks at debates. But frankly, they're less awful than everyone else. And I like their inclusion of locals."

    1. Is that why he thinks it's 2014? (Earlier, when he was asking Bernie about his taxes and Bernie said he would release "last year's taxes," Volfie said, "2013?")

      1. The rainman gave him two cures
        Then he said, “Jump right in”
        The one was Texas Ibogane
        The other was just railroad gin
        And like a fool he mixed them
        And it strangled up his mind
        And now people just get uglier
        And he has no sense of time

    1. They keep asking useful questions and just drop something stupid in every now and then. CNN can't pick whether to be helpful or not!

  12. And now for the lightening round, you have thirty seconds to name ten Joe Biden Onion stories. Senator Sanders, you first…

  13. Approximately 0.3% of both campaigns seem to be from oil and gas money, why are we even bickering about this?

  14. Bernie, we all totally get and agree with your point, but being president requires diplomacy and intermediate steps.

          1. In those OH-8 primary commercials, one guy was using that Jim Jordan asshole's endorsement as a huge thing.

  15. Hillary needs to get on board w/ Bernie on healthcare and college tuition. He's right, we can figure this out if other countries can, and I don't get why she can't get more left on this.

  16. Republican nomination, ballot 69

    "Well, there's no rule preventing us from nominating a cat for president…"

  17. Does anyone follow any sites like Brietbart or TNR? I'm wondering what their live blog comments are about this debate. Not that I want to go over there and feel all gross.

    1. I'm almost to the point of not even following the comments at the FP here. Some real assholes followed the food guy over.

  18. OK, so I just went over to Breitbart (Insert emergency eye wash gif here) and first thing they had was a headline about this debate: "Hillary: ‘I Want White People to Recognize That There Is Systemic Racism’"

    All I can say is the comments are…interesting.

    Total popular vote so far:

    Clinton ——— 9.4 million
    Trump ——– 8.2M
    Bernie —— 6.9M
    Cruz —— 6.3M
    Rubio — 3.4M
    Kasich – 3.0M

  20. Bernie is on CNN saying we can't go back and look at a single bill and draw big conclusions but that's literally what half this debate was about…

  21. My TV switched over to Craig Ferguson's "Join or Die." I should have too, but I turned on CNN radio instead. The DVR knows what to do.

  22. @aedwardslevy

    i heard if you say "polls" 100 times at a debate a polar bear appears out of nowhere and eats everyone on the stage

  23. You know how CNN has a countdown clock for everything? Like, "32 hours 42 minutes until the next debate" or "6 hours 17 minutes until the polls close in wherever." Smokey and I have decided there should be a "How long has it been since Wolf Blitzer pooped?" and it would count upwards instead of a countdown. "27 hours, 32 minutes, 35 seconds… 36 seconds… 37 seconds" etc."
