Support NeoGAF

[Pastry]

Good fucking closing god damn

 

[shinra-bansho]

I think she took it too far. But I don't think it was necessarily a bad pivot.

She should have just said: "Senator Sanders has leveled criticisms at President Obama that I don't think have been fair. But to me, he is a leader here at home that will heavily influence how I approach the world."

 

[UltimaPooh]

Jesus christ, is this what political discussion on GAF has come to?

Nah.

 

[Effect]

She's just going in with this closing speech. Damn!

 

[Trojita]

Is this a checklist now?

 

[Daft Bird]

She's already wearing it.

AMIRITE

Oh shit, it really looks like it

 

[Makai]

If you prefer sound bites over substance, I suppose.

Yes. Yes, I do.

 

[Prodigal Son]

Fucking wrecked. Holy shit. What a night.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Holy fuck. I support Bernie but Hilary's final statement.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I'm not sure who won but I think it was closer than the last debate.

Damn, she kicked him. Single issue candidate.

Bernie is only a single issue candidate if you lump all domestic issues as one.

 

[injurai]

Hillary ending on racism, sexism, & lgbt issues is a good look.

 

[MilkBeard]

If Hillary will be an extension of Obama with some tweaks, sign me up.

And I would be okay with that, as a second option.

 

[Ashodin]

What is she saying? Is she saying that it would be overnight? lol

 

[Mrbob]

Union leaders are just as corrupt as Wall Street.

 

[royalan]

Great ending from Hillary.

 

[reelbigtink]

How could any person, actually like Hillary.

She's like the high school english teacher that everybody hated.

I like her. Bernie too.

 

[Big Baybee]

Obama has an 80% approval rating among Democrat's and will be on the wall next to MLK and Jesus in black homes for the next fifty years.

Lol it's true

 

[AnotherNils]

How could any person, actually like Hillary.

They've seen a GOP debate.

 

[Officerrob]

Dat Hillary crowd

 

[OuterLimits]

So debate summary.

Sanders: Wall Street, Wall Street. Wall Street.

Clinton: Obama, Obama, Obama.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I don't know how I feel about who "won".

 

[ivysaur12]

How could any person, actually like Hillary.

Easily?????

This is a great new messaging for her in the end.

 

[Condom]

 

[Your Entertainer]

Ehhh, nah. Sanders did call for a sitting Democratic president to be primaried. A popular Democratic president. He can try to paint that as "healthy criticism" all he likes, but it's perfectly fair for Clinton, on the eve of primaries with large black turnouts, to bring it up. Hell, it's smart.

He was NOT popular at that time - iirc (don't have approval numbers on hand). I myself recall wishing I had voted for Hillary at some points during his first term - he was not doing well and neither were the dems as shown by the previous midterms.

Iirc, he claimed that a more progressive challenger could craft Obama into a stronger candidate and that it could give progressives a better voice.

 

[Sobriquet]

Strong finish

 

[B-Dubs]

She chopped his goddamn head off with that closing statement, shit

 

[Diprosalic]

Sanders just shot himself in the foot.

 

[SSPssp]

Hillary's closing statement was amazing!

 

[Chase17]

Jeez. Good closing statement from Hilary.

 

[SURGEdude]

How could any person, actually like Hillary.

She's like the high school english teacher that everybody hated.

It's accepting the lesser based on the idea that Bernie can't win.

I don't think the realities bear that line of thinking out. Though Hillary has my sword if she wins.

 

[Wes]

She had the much better closing argument there. Prep work showed.

 

[foxtrot3d]

Does Hillary have anything to say that isn't about Obama?

Obama was a weak president. ACA healthcare is a joke to foreigners who enjoy Universal Healthcare. He didn't actually fully recover your economy because the signs of 2008 with bond defaulting is happening again now since he didn't break up your banks. It was a presidency full of bad compromises until some decent executive actions.

He moved your countries needle slightly is all.

Your country really needs a political revolution. Obama couldn't do it.

No, he had unprecedented levels of opposition from the Republican party and managed to pass the most expansive and dramatic pieces of legislation expanding healthcare about the government since the Great Society and The New Deal. That alone was a massive accomplishment. He also got Dodd Frank passed and improved the economy, bringing our country back from one of the largest recessions in history.

 

[zoozilla]

Damn, I wonder who's winning Wisconsin?

 

[dramatis]

Hooray! "God Given Potential" has finally evolved!

 

[Gnome Scat]

Wish I didn't miss the majority of this debate, the end was very good.

 

[Superman0]

So debate summary.

Sanders: Wall Street, Wall Street. Wall Street.

Clinton: Obama, Obama, Obama.

Ha, that is about right.

 

[Trojita]

That crowd wtf

 

[Interfectum]

I enjoyed this Obama vs. Sanders debate.

 

[ThisGuy]

Her closing statement was great. I really liked it.

 

[Vincent Alexander]

I enjoyed this Obama vs. Sanders debate.

lol. Tis true

 

[And_Gignac]

He won and it wasnt even close. Sorry.

 

[rekameohs]

Bernie's closing was really good, Hillary's was fucking great.

 

[Machina]

Hillary won the debate,

she is loyal to President Obama,
loyal to the party

the down-ticket candidates are taking notice

Superdelegates tidal wave

Hillary wins the nomination

That's what American politics now? Unfettered loyalty to the party? How pathetic.

 

[studyguy]

Hooray! "God Given Potential" has finally evolved!

Found that Triple Fell Cleave

 

[BitStyle]

Nice closing from Hillary

 

[Zona]

Intersectionality! Hallelujah! Preach it Hillary!

 

[RastaMentality]

Great debate for Bernie and Hillary. Hillary's closing statement though. Jesus.

 

[The Librarian]

Bernie lost the debate for the simple reason that he did not give voters a reason to go with him over Hillary.

 

[ugaboga232]

Any VODs?

Missed the first hour.

 

[Pastry]

He won and it wasnt even close. Sorry.

It's almost like this is subjective
