Support NeoGAF

[Suikoguy]

It's a lot more than the emails, guy.

Such as?

 

[devilhawk]

Ah the "but, but Powell and Rice did it too!" answer.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

absolutely i can

[proceeds to talk about benghazi instead]

 

[Owzers]

I think her answer encourages investigators to push for charges, but i dunno.

 

[Prodigal Son]

Just a month or two ago, he was way behind Hilary in the polls for Iowa, and yet, her victory was to a 1% or so margin. Think about that for a minute.

I don't know what about this is hard to swallow.

 

[Grover]

no. shes too polarizing.

so they'll com out to vote against her lol

shes still getting people out to the polls!

 

[Paskil]

Great answer on email. 100% confidence.

 

[undrtakr900]

Good answer by Bernie on the emails, we get enough of that from GOP.

 

[the_id]

I'm a Hilliary supporter but I've got such great respect for Bernie Sanders. I don't think he's strong enough to go against the Republicans.

 

[Coolluck]

I support Bernie, but Hilldawg's has excellent debate skills (irregardless if you agree with her or not),

Gross. Irregardless. I'm not sure if you can judge debate skills. (I agree with you. Bernie is too much of an idealist)

 

[B-Dubs]

Oh shit, I almost forgot about the Culinary Union thing :lol

 

[SolarPowered]

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT YOUR EMAIL, HILLARY.

"I will not politicize it"

Excellent on Bernie's part. Let the FBI do their job.

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

"I will not politicize it"

Excellent on Bernie's part. Let the FBI do their job.

Yes, their "job"

 

[FutureZombie]

Jesus these questions are terrible.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

asking bernie if he's losing control of his campaign? what?

this plus bringing up the e-mails again boggle my mind. these questions aren't any decent

 

[B-Dubs]

Oh shit Maddow! "But the ad said endorsement" :lolololol

 

[And_Gignac]

I'm a Hilliary supporter but I've got such great respect for Bernie Sanders. I don't think he's strong enough to go against the Republicans.

He would do better against everyone but Rubio, in my opinion.

 

[shinra-bansho]

But in that case which of those countries are a real threat to the US? Russia's economy is crippled and while they are a big european threat, I doubt they can ever become the USSR. Iran is a regional player.

I mean under threats to global stability and consequently the US, the Defense Secretary is probably right in Russia's flouting of international law. Iran is a greater threat to global stability already touched upon. The brinksmanship in the East/South China Sea is probably considered a greater threat.

I guess one could argue there isn't currently a direct tangible threat, in which case the question was kind of broken.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

I must say, this whole segment is pretty useless. This is a segment dedicated to pundits who treat politics like a sport. I really doubt any of these issues are of import to voters.

Edit- and kudos to both candidates for seemingly recognizing that.

 

[Zok310]

Ahhh it's getting borning now.

 

[Officerrob]

That segment was a lot of meh

 

[Paskil]

"No"

GOT DAMN

 

[Kangi]

"No." Perfect.

 

[darkside31337]

Glad Hillary didn't even dignify that question with a rebuttal.

 

[ivysaur12]

Ah the "but, but Powell and Rice did it too!" answer.

But today we found out that they did the exact same thing under an FBI review.

 

[RustyNails]

Maddow denied

 

[Log4Girlz]

why does hillary laugh so much. what is so funny

ＨＡ ＨＡ ＨＡ

I am human, hear me laugh.

HA HA HA

 

[Nickle]

talk about real issues

 

[ApharmdX]

Haha Hillary! I wish she'd come off of the cuff more. She's going to need to be more charismatic of a speaker if she's the nominee.

 

[brochiller]

Both candidates being nice to each other there. Aw.

 

[Prodigal Son]

Such as?

The issue is about trust. Bernie, like or hate his ideas, is widely considered the more genuine and likable of the two.

My opinion: Hillary uses disingenuous arguments consistently. Her acting like she'll take on Wall Street is hilarious. It's also ridiculous when she repeatedly insists that Bernie's plan would put the affordable care act in jeopardy, regardless of how many times he explicitly states that simply isn't true.

save this crap for the gop debates

 

[massoluk]

I just loved it whenever Hillary gives a simple "no" when asked.

 

[benicillin]

Sanders and Clinton both doing the right thing and not taking the bait there. Much better look for both of them.

 

[ugaboga232]

I don't think you can say that Iran, as a whole, is rational. Rouhani, as the head of state is, but its pretty clear that he doesn't control the entire government apparatus. That's how you get situations why the Iranian navy takes over a US boat at gunpoint. The Obama administration papered it over because they want to keep things positive but there are clearly reactionary parts of the Iranian state that do not want normalized relations with the US and try push the sides apart.

They are basically the flipside of republicans, lot of bark. The us boat was in iranian waters, that was standard protocol. They have their own problems with liberal youths so they have to keep a tight lid on things. Besides, the US acts toward iran like how Russia acts toward Ukraine. We overthrew their leader and installed a dictator, we had behind the scenes deals and we even destroyed an entire plane full of iranian civilians and never apologized (300ish ppl dead, crazy shit). Iran knows they are surronded by unfriendly allies and need to posture because of their demographics (older conservatives, young liberals that will slowly take over).

 

[A Human Becoming]

Oh shit, I almost forgot about the Culinary Union thing :lol

It must have been pretty minor then. I never heard about it.

 

[ezrarh]

i think the first woman president could bring people out to vote just like obama did as first black president

What does it say about the enthusiasm for her if she beat Bernie by <1% in Iowa with over 100k less voters than in 2008.

 

[noshten]

Yikes. I see.

Yep, youth turnout during the biggest financial meltdown and 8 years of Bush... voting for Obama

 

[UraMallas]

Refusing to talk about bullshit by both candidates. A breath of fresh air.

 

[petethepanda]

Interesting to have a "I won't talk about this if you won't talk about that" kind of dynamic going on. Morbidly curious what happens when it inevitably catches on fire.

 

[ZealousD]

We start the debate with semantic arguments and now we're getting into campaign non-drama.

Come on Todd and Maddow. You're better than this.

 

[RoKKeR]

Boring. Might be time to turn it off.

 

[SolarPowered]

"no"

Hillary, you are cool on that issue right now. Both democratic candidates are really class acts on these petty issues. Republicans would tear each other to shreds over this comparison.

Yes, their "job"

okay

Probably a job where they won't find anything, but it's still a job.

 

[danm999]

Good job on both of them refusing to dignify nonsense.

 

[Grover]

ive barely even been listening to this debate anymore, i dunno why, its just kind trailed off from the big start

 

[Paskil]

It must have been pretty minor then. I never heard about it.

I've been following pretty closely and hadn't heard of any of that shit she asked Bernie.

 

[Four_Chamber]

Perfect answer to a stupid question

 

[NullPointer]

I just loved it whenever Hillary gives a simple "no" when asked.

Seriously.

MSNBC looked craven in that last segment too, itching for more attacks.

It's also ridiculous when she repeatedly insists that Bernie's plan would put the affordable care act in jeopardy, regardless of how many times he explicitly states that simply isn't true.

Bernie hasn't exactly clarified he wouldn't repeal obamacare or "also" building on it. He isn't using direct language to that effect in the debate. Why not?

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

I think her answer encourages investigators to push for charges, but i dunno.

Wat. You realize it's Loretta Lynch, Obama's AG that decides on charges right?
