Both have landed significant hits and the exchanges have been incredibly lively. Thing the edge is going to Hilary but purely because of her current polling in NH, rather than her capabilities as a debater.

 

[eBay Huckster]

The point is that is you believe receiving millions of dollars from donors doesn't influence your policies, you are sorely mistaken.

The point is she asked him to point that out as it applies to her, and he returned to stump.

Weaselly.

 

[B-Dubs]

When the word "smear" came out that was overboard. Informing the American public about special interests backing her is perfectly reasonable and he doesn't do it in Republican fashion. Hillary hasn't been swiftboated or done in by Karl Rovian tactic on Bernie's part. It's a clean disagreement and discussion

Except that the subtext in a lot of his comments, that his supporters have definitely picked up on, is that she's been bought and paid for by special interests. It's a fine attack, but let's just not act like it's not an attack and the implication isn't being made.

 

[Cesare Borgia]

What... exactly was Bernie's ending there? Go to Youtube?

yea...

He was on fire for a bit but returned to earth. Clinton hurled a pretty naive attack at him (concerning pay for play in Washington) and got served.

 

[Your Entertainer]

Exactly. Bernie went on a good rant about republicans and campaign financing but how does that prove anything with Hillary's voting or political views.

Because Hillary just denied straight up that she has ever changed her views due to her massive wall St donations.

Bernies response about how money influences politics was brilliant as it elucidates that relationship to the audience and pretty clearly shows Hillary is full of it by saying that.

 

[Nelo Ice]

This debate is awesome. Love how they're going at it without GOP esque fuckery.

 

[Dicer]

Best feed, I'm late comin in...

 

[Fracas]

Killer debate so far. Clinton came out strong but Sanders got back in it.

I plan to vote for Sanders (I still don't believe he'll pass the majority of what he argues for but I respect that he's fighting nonetheless), but Clinton would be great too.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Regardless of how I feel about her personally, I feel like Hilldawg is going to crush whoever the eventual Republican nominee is.

 

[params7]

How can any Republican stand up against either of these people?

I don't mean in terms of ideology, on which I'm obviously biased. I mean in pure debate skill. These two are head and shoulders above anyone on the Republican side, oratorically, even Cruz.

Cruz and Rubio will give Hillary a good challenge in those pure debating skills.

 

[Effect]

She really is. I love Bernie but she's ruthless. No conservative opponent stands a chance.

The Obama vs Clinton battle was damn good for both of them. Very few modern politicians have been shaped the way they were I think during that. She might stumble here and there on a particular topic but you're aren't going to catch her sleeping. Best bring your A game now that it's one vs one.

 

[Aaronology]

You're right. She's much worse.

Sarcasm?

Please be sarcasm.

 

[legacyzero]

Clinton is not "worse than Cruz" good lord people

God no. Hill is still a sane choice as opposed to Cruz.

You're right. She's much worse.

C'mon son

[royalan]

Damn, seems like I missed a doozy of a first half hour. Anyone care to tell me what the main topic was?

 

[RustyNails]

Hillary frustrates me but she's a good debater

She'll TEAR APART whoever the GOP will put up there. They'll mention Benghazi and she'll just go on a tear showing them how much money the GOP "small government" wasted/is wasting on it. lol

Exactly. They will run circles around Bernie while he's talking about socialism and wall street. Call him weak, anti-capitalist, anti-American, and soviet sympathizer.

 

[MetalGearZed]

If Hillary is doing this against someone as honorable as Sanders, the GOP better brace

 

[HylianTom]

Because Hillary just denied straight up that she has ever changed her views due to her massive wall St donations.

Bernies response about how money influences politics was brilliant as it elucidates that relationship to the audience and pretty clearly shows Hillary is full of it by saying that.

But he doesn't connect any dots.

When he makes this kind of allegation, he best back it up. And he failed. Miserably.

 

[Condom]

Hillary is fucking strong.

I like it. Enough with these conspiracy-esque insinuations.

Conspiracy-esque lmao

Have you ever spoken with a national/international parliament member? Shit's real, normal even.

 

[DataStream]

If Hilary keeps being this aggressive she is opening herself up to a whole lot of shit when they start talking about institutional racism (mandatory minimums, drug policy), LGBT issues (against gay marriage for most of her life), etc.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Cruz and Rubio will give Hillary a good challenge in those pure debating skills.

Yeah, but the republicans will come with lies and the idiotic media won't challenge them on the lies.

 

[Four_Chamber]

Step back and realize these debates actually have substance to them unlike the GOP catch-phrase fests

I like the energy Hillary is bringing- she may have pushed a little much for my liking in that last exchange. The problem with debating Sanders is you know all of his answers will relate around income inequality- I debated for 8 years (yes I'm a nerd) and there's a lot of art to this. The GOP debates are debates in name only.

 

[ant_]

This "go to my website/YouTube" has been the worst fucking part of this election cycle.

Use your words. Explain your position or what you did. Don't tell me to check your social media smh

No, I get that, but how was that actually his answer instead of describing, maybe, what was in the video?

On that note, why doesn't Bernie include the Fed in his attack points? Why just Wall Street?

 

[UraMallas]

Any streams besides the Youtube one? It is telling me it's offline. The channel is out on my cable box, too.

 

[Nipo]

But he doesn't connect any dots.

Do you want him to just come out and call her a coin operated politician? Can anyone take millions in donations and not have it affect them?

 

[Smiley90]

"WHY DON'T YOU DO THIS"

"It doesn't work"

"then why are you attacking her on sth else"

"wat?"

 

[legacyzero]

Damn, seems like I missed a doozy of a first half hour. Anyone care to tell me what the main topic was?

ALL OF IT

 

[B-Dubs]

You better believe she's also holding back, those debates against Obama were way crazier than this will ever get.

 

[DrForester]

I get the feeling that Hillary is having a lot of fun.

I don't. Hillary didn't want a fight. She wanted "Coronation II: Lets not fuck it up this time"

[ivysaur12]

He's kind of insinuating it, so he should just say it.

I don't. Hillary didn't want a fight. She wanted "Coronation II: Lets not fuck it up this time"

She knows she's going to win. I'd say this is kind of fun.

 

[harSon]

Hopefully Hillary's demeanor this debate isn't viewed negatively in the eyes of viewers due to her being a woman. I'm personally loving it, but unfortunately qualities viewed favorably in men aren't viewed so favorably when embodied by women in the eyes of many.

 

[HylianTom]

He best connect the dots. He didn't.

 

[royalan]

Wow, just tuned in.

Hillary looks pissed. They both do.

 

[gutter_trash]

these Wall Street questions are boring

I just completely disagree.

LAST NIGHT QUOTES

MSNBC GOING IN

but seriously move on from this

 

[Tranqueris]

The point is she asked him to point that out as it applies to her, and he returned to stump.

Weaselly.

His answers before the break felt like they were made up of 80% stump and 20% answer. He's sort of better now though.

Weird question.

 

[Shao Kahn on the Lawn]

It doesn't matter which of the two of them wins: none of the current Republican field has had to weather what they'll bring to a 1-on-1.

I don't care. Nobody enforces the time limits and your job as a politician is to be convincing and concise in your answers. Fuck YouTube
