I'm actually kinda shocked at how well Trump is doing thus far. I never would've thought he'd be the front runner, especially after his announcement back in June.

MRC president Brent Bozell issued a statement Wednesday night criticizing the overall tilt and tone of the CNBC Republican debate in Boulder:

"The CNBC moderators acted less like journalists and more like Clinton campaign operatives. What was supposed to be a serious debate about the many issues plaguing our economy was given up for one Democratic talking point after another served up by the so-call 'moderators.' They clearly war-gamed this thinking that a relentless series of personal attacks on the candidates would somehow drive their ratings and help Hillary Clinton.

The CNBC debate will go down in history as an encyclopedic example of liberal media bias on stage. The audience roared its disdain for these so-called 'journalists,' and all of America heard it. CNBC should be embarrassed for their pitiful display of partisan liberal media bias and apologize to the GOP candidates and the American people."

So how long before Jeb announces he's dropping out of the race? The next couple of days or do you think he's gonna try and drag this train-wreck a little further?
 
To recap tonight's debate

We need to get government out of Medicare by raising the eligibility age, abolishing the minimum wage, abolishing the IRS, freezing all the regulations (except the public safety ones), return to gold standard, cut the 75,000 page federal tax law to 3 pages and make poor people prosper by removing all the government subsidies, including agriculture. Did I miss anything?
 
CNBC wasn't ready for The Donald.

This interview with him afterwards is a bit boring though, but I found out that he has a great relationship with the Hispanics
 
IT IS TIME TO MAKE AN IMPERIAL DECREE

the next person to trot out "both parties are the same"rhetoric is sentenced to a forced watching of this debate followed up by the last democratic debate, clockwork orange style
 
I'm kind of curious to see how people respond to Christie after this. He was really hamming it up for those moments that would get talked about and replayed.
 
I feel like Jeb! is done.

Cruz is probably going to get a bump from his assault on the media.

Christie might get a slight bump but not enough to be worthwhile.

Trump and Carson stay where they are.

Rand Paul needs to drop out, as does Kasich. It's over.

Not sure if Fiorina gets a bump or not.

Rubio probably also gets a bump from his "The Media is a Hillary Clinton superpac!" bullshit.

At first, I thought Debate 2 was the worst, but after watching it, I feel like this one has the honor of being the worst of the bunch by far.
 
Jeb is done, he's so done

It's actually amazing how he fucked it up so early, but there is zero chance for him now.

It's either Rubio or Trump, Carson is too stupid and can't talk his way out of a paper bag.

Christie is an asshole who's numbers will be constantly low because nobody likes him

Everyone else are nobodies who should have dropped out of the race a month ago.

Because he's a dumbass. Only thing anyone's going to be talking about tomorrow is Trump lighting him up.

On the positive, he could spin this as major liberal bias downright lying to smear his accomplishments. That seems to get a lot of points with the Republican audience.

Yeah, its not like the fight wasn't completely public with Trump going to twitter and other news organizations about it.

And then CNBC publically saying they are going with a 2 hour debate afterwards.

Its not some wierd backdoor tv deal.

Will the media actually talk about the moderator straight up lying though? I'm guessing no. Pretty much every media outlet doesn't want Trump in the race, yet loves the ratings he brings.

more than anything, it's a question of money I think and I don't see why anyone would start donating money to him after that pathetic performance. there's only so many campaign staffers you can fire to stay afloat if you can't raise money.

Fiorina sucks.

Her entire campaign is literally trying to match the sexes. She should be actually saying it's disgraceful for a man to face a woman in combat. Probably will help.
 
softball debate that was confined to economic policy. awful.


the comparison to the democratic debates is just staggering. this is amateur hour.


any republican candidate is going to get wrecked in the presidential debates. it will be embarrassing.
