Watching Bernie's SNL sketch. He's a surprisingly good actor by politician standards. Especially considering how low he set the bar with his singing.

edi-t thought I was in poligaf :s

Christie making Rubio cry and possibly ruining his chance to win the nom are the only things of note he has done so far.

Christie won, he'll be prominent in the news cycle which is just what he needed.

Trump did fine. He won't win any votes based on tonight's performance but won't lose any either.

Carson was as weird as ever. I don't know if this will hurt him since I can't for the life of me figure out who's voting for him in the first place.

Kasich, Bush, whatever.

Cruz was a loser. Didn't do anything particularly wrong but didn't dominate like he needed to.

Rubio got schlonged.

I just heard Trump say something I actually agree with. They asked him what he'd do about North Korea, and he said we would have to lean on China to get anything done.

Most of the base who watch debates at home seem to know the audiences are mainly the elites of the party. They certainly aren't filled with Tea Party types. So him calling out the crowd helps him with the base.

More importantly it will help him with people who are tired of these "donors" trying to steer their opinions and control their lives. Trump is clearly the most anti establishment candidate and his willingness to publicly expose BS like this will help him once he enters the primary.

Oh, and I'm convinced that Ted Cruz is still cheating, somehow, to stay anywhere near to the top of the polls. Who is funding that guy?

The introduction to the stage was amazing. Also the boo lines from Trump. Are we sure that fitting in with the theme of the OP, Robot Rubio was supposed to take the fall and that was why he was beat down so bad?
 
Just a terrible terrible night for Rubio.

In the first half of the debate he went full-on Macro Robot. Then in the second half of the debate he was visibly sweating buckets in glorious HD. The rest of the candidates were dry as a bone, so he can't chalk it up to hot stage lights. It literally looked like Rubio's circuit boards were overheating, which was causing his synthetic skin to melt.

If I was a Republican I would be concerned that he would literally explode if he got in a debate with Hilary Clinton. One of the key attributes of an establishment candidate is the ability to at least hold their own in the presidential debates. After tonight, Rubio now appears as a political lightweight who has trouble thinking on his feet.

Yea. Rubio got exposed. id be surprised if this wasnt the end of him this cycle.
 
Rubio tanked so embarrassingly this debate lol.

Some this debate sounded fairly substantive at first glance, but man they all just yammer on about Obama, holy crap :/

On Inauguration Day, when Former President Obama appears, I hope the crowd chant 'Four More Years, Four More Years'. The GOP act like he wouldn't win again if he could run. He would win by bigger margins.

I watched 3 videos from yesterday and now I understand how Trump is on the lead.

Rubio the Robot acted so stupid with his 20 seconds line over and over again even after he heard 'hey you are just repeating it'. hahaha

He really would if he could. He pisses off conservatives but they're never gonna vote for him anyways. Among Democrats he is insanely popular. He'd win in a landslide, especially against anything the Republicans can run this cycle.

He looks really tired though if we're being honest. Not sure he would even if there wasn't a 2 term limit.

The introductions are fucking incredible. I wasn't going to watch this because I listened in on the radio, but man I'm glad I did.
