@TeddyDavisCNN
The Bernie Sanders-Ted Cruz Obamacare debate is coming to CNN -- Tues., Feb. 7th -- it will be moderated by @jaketapper and @DanaBashCNN.

Well.

 

[Arkeband]

Well that's random.

 

[TheXbox]

So two people who hate Obamacare?

 

[robotrock]

Just the right time

 

[Alucrid]

cnn seems to be taking the cold shoulder hard

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

It's going to be highly entertaining, cable news has become just a show at this point

 

[Douche McBaggins The 3rd]

Your gonna get fucked up ted. Do a Donald and cancel. Nobody knows you except about how you bitched out and gave Donald a blowjob after he said your wife was a bitch. Dignity. Where is it?

 

[Ithil]

Prepare the battlefield for massacre.

 

[TheLaughingStock]

How in the world can Lyin' Ted show his face in public after all of the Ls he took in 2016?

 

[madstarr12]

Incredibly random. But hey, Ted Cruz is back in the picture! Sounds terrible.

 

[sphagnum]

How in the world can Lyin' Ted show his face in public after all of the Ls he took in 2016?

Many cucks get off on humiliation.

This might shock some people, but Sanders did vote for it, and you can also defend something in the short-term as a net positive while simultaneously thinking there's a far better long term solution to keep fighting for.

As far as the debate goes this is...odd. I do wonder how much he will bring up Medicare-for-All though in addition to "defending Obamacare". Anything to get that message out there to the mainstream is a net positive imo.

 

[DrROBschiz]

can we start by no longer calling it obamacare?

 

[>:)]

can we start by no longer calling it obamacare?

Alt-ernateCare?

 

[Alavard]

I assume it's under Trump's order, because he's clearly only capable of doing what Trump says.

 

[Zen Aku]

Barrac(k)care?

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

...but why?

 

[sugarhigh4242]

Is there any way Cruz could wear a paper bag over his head for this? Or you know, maybe plastic since he doesnt care about the environment.

 

[joe2187]

can we start by no longer calling it obamacare?

Trump-Dont-Care

 

[BoosterDuck]

well ok? at least we'll get to see Bernie verbally shake down somebody who's not Hillary

 

[necrosis]

will be nice to see ted cruz eviscerated on tv i guess

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Probably skipping that.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Crawl back into whateverthefuck hole you came from Ted Cruz

 

[Zaventem]

So two people who hate Obamacare?

You can't be serious..

 

[Gaogaogao]

did we just go back in time? I wish we went back in time

 

[To Far Away Times]

Ether will be in abundance.

 

[rokkerkory]

Ted gets his ass handed to him calling it

 

[ianpm31]

Bernie going to hand Ted another loss

 

[NervousXtian]

WTF is this?

I mean... this won't accomplish a damn thing.

Ted's own party doesn't like him.

Also, nobody is going to listen to Bernie in this administration.

 

[Guess Who]

but why

 

[Ottaro]

...but why?

This is my reaction.

What would be accomplished with this? It just seems like theater.

 

[guek]

This should be good

 

[Bronx-Man]

Primary season all over again? PoliGAF, we're back in this bitch!

 

[Goodstyle]

Bernie will get embarrassed. Ted Cruz is a scummy piece of shit, but he's a Princeton educated veteran debate champion. Bernie got schlonged by Hillary and misplaces finger wagging with aggression.

And before you guys jump on me and tell me Trump crushed Cruz, remember, Trump had the advantage of having multiple opponents to divide the focus and just yelled incoherently whenever he spoke. There's no strategy against that.

This debate is going to be a disaster for Obamacare's PR since both debaters don't even like it, and the one that wants it gone actually knows how to debate.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Pass.

 

[jimmypython]

Sanders is the chairman of out reach. He is indeed reaching out to the people, which, if done right, would do wonders for the party next year at the midterms.

 

[legacyzero]

Bernie got fight in him. Gonna tear Lyin Ted to shreds.

Drink if he says "HEALTHCARE AS A RIGHT"

 

[guek]

...but why?

but why

Because getting the word out about what repealing Obama care is actually going to do to people is a good thing

 

[Lothar]

Bernie has to be planning to run in 2020, right?

 

[rjinaz]

Seems pointless, but eh, I'll watch. Any chance to see Cruz being schooled, I'll take it.

 

[Phased]

Ted Cruz desperately trying to stay relevant.

At least Bernie is out there marching and shit. Cruz having to eat crow to Trump pretty much decimated his viability I think.

 

[AYF 001]

This intrigues me. Hopefully Bernie has at least improved his debate rhetoric beyond saying "Wall Street Billionaires" every 2 minutes.

 

[legacyzero]

Bernie has to be planning to run in 2020, right?

Dude will be like 80. He'll either run, or train his Padawon, Whoever that is.

So good.

 

[rjinaz]

It's probably not a popular opinion, but, he'd have my vote again in a heartbeat.

 

[King Kye]

Is there a reason anyone would care about this??

 

[Guess Who]

Because getting the word out about what repealing Obama care is actually going to do to people is a good thing

Sure, but this doesn't seem like an effective way to do it.

 

[Guamu]

[guek]

Well good thing getting the message out doesn't entirely hinge on this one debate

 

[infiniteloop]

Bernie has to be planning to run in 2020, right?

Yes, and he should.

 

[Beartruck]

I hope CNN cuts all pretenses and just brings a basket of daggers.
