I bet that they're all douchebags. What are the odds? What's the over/under?

I'd be perfectly satisfied if what happens in Vegas just stays in Vegas this time...

I couldn't get through 5 minutes of the Bloomberg one, but I'll watch this one just to see how Anderson Cooper handles it. I love that guy (NTTAWWT)

1 to 1 that Huntsman ends the debate looking like the only sane, smart, and presidential candidate.

They're having another farking debate? People with no sensible ideas, plans or anything worth discussing other than hurrr-durrr soshulizm are going to race each other to the bottom of the stupid barrel... again

I'd take a swift kick to the nads over watching this.
 
2011-10-18 06:45:37 PM
I'm all for as much exposure of these people as we can get. Have a debate every week from now until November. Allowing them to talk to the public helps showcase what absolut farkwits they all are.

WTF Indeed: 1 to 1 that Huntsman ends the debate looking like the only sane, smart, and presidential candidate.

"Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, who's boycotting tonight's debate, called Cain's economic plan a "non-starter on Capitol Hill" on MSNBC this afternoon."

/he wasn't going to get anywhere near close to winning.

At this point, we all pretty much know what to expect in this and every other debate left. So, to make things easier, here's a handy checklist:

GOP Debate Checklist


1) Romney's hair does its best Jimmie Johnson impression
2) Bachmann claims she used to be something she wasn't
3) Gingrich complains about the questions asked of him
4) B..b..b.....but Obama!!!1
5) Romney defends his previous decisions
6) ReaganReaganReaganReaganReaganReagan.../trip out
7) Santorum blames the gays for something
8) 999 Plan reference
9) Romney criticizes his previous decisions
10) Moderators lose control of the debate
11) Ron Paul wants to abolish something
12) Every 25th post is the "job creator" post and every 999th post is the "Cheese covered, three topping, family meal deal" post
13) The audience boos/cheers something stupid


/this is a draft list, so changes will be accepted until the debate starts

Sounds more like the Tea Party since they're going to be going on about socialism

Well, at least they'll be short speeches if brains has anything to do with it

Huntsman is boycotting the debate because he's boycotting Nevada for moving its primary ahead of NH.

Nah, the OWS guys actually got their act together and started being coherent within a few weeks of the media starting to pay attention. No sign of that with the GOP yet.

Who's the FotM after this one? Because we're starting to run out of FotM candidates. Do we get Romney finally emerging after this failfest?

Really hope the Fark Republicans will join in, they have been hiding in shame for the past couple of debates.

Inline poker sounds interesting though. Can you keep bluffing even after you fall on your ass for the 100th time?

Well Republicans are for smaller government.

...And what I mean by "Smaller government" is only when it applies to businesses.

I think he/she/it knows that.

If I was Huntsman, I'd say my boycott was because these 'debates' are a waste of time instead of using some lame-ass excuse like Nevada's new date for the primary. I'd also make some sort of serious policy speech somewhere the day before so that everyone at the 'debate' spends more time talking about the person who isn't there than their own silly ideas.

Prediction:
Cain will vow to "kick the n***** out of the White House," the crowd will go crazy, the other candidates will claim they thought of kicking the n****** out of the White House first but they thought they weren't allowed to say it, allowing Cain to coast into the nomination.

Will anyone notice?

I guess someone might notice the person who actually has any sense of reality is not on stage this time,

Who else is boycotting?

i wouldn't go so far as to consider these debates.

they're more like the GOP version of The View.

only instead of just one retard, they're all tards.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that they'll oppose online gambling, and later they will will talk about how government is too big and intrusive.

Jesus christ. How many debates are they going to have? The same thing happens each damn time. Bachmann screeches something she read in an e-mail forwarded to her by deranged people. Santorum hopes you don't google him and reminds people he's a white male and not a Mormon. Ron Paul gets substantial support from the Republicans who don't have money and don't like people. Rick Parry salutes Ronald Reagan for his brave service in the Mexican-American War. Herman Cain Sharpton-mumbles something about how running America is like running a pizza joint. A significant portion of the audience boos the troops or cheers wildly at the thought of dead Americans who weren't smart enough to be born to someone rich in a time when the estate tax was low.

Debate is not ignoring the question and going right into talking points.

Screw you, even if I made enough to be one of the GOP's favorite people my account would be cleaned out halfway through.

Good plan. Sometimes these people are not too smart even about politics. Too often they try to do the obvious and "normal" thing.

He would probably actually do well with a plan. There has to be some middle of the road Republicans who still exist, somewhere. You'd think with all the crazies on the right being separated up so much he could get some sort of number. He should really go after Romney because that's where probably most of the votes he can get are at.
 
2011-10-18 07:55:51 PM
It's about time one of these went green before the debate. These debates have provided a more reliable and regularly source of comedy than "2 Broke Girls (Who Will Develop A Nasty But Entirely Curable Illness From Working Two Jobs Yet Will Die Anyway Because America Elected a Republican President and a Republican Congress)".

I can't watch it directly myself. It's like the Medusa and a mirror. I have to follow it from what people say on here and other sources. i can't look directly at it.
