    The DNC chair woman used to run a Hillary super PAC right? Sanders is foolish for not bringing more attention to how the DNC rigged the process for Hillary.

    Sanders also gave Clinton a huge gift by saying in one of the debates he had heard enough about her emails. He acted like those emails were not important when in fact her negligence and incompetence has hurt our national security. I think it is pretty much common knowledge her private email account was hacked into by China and other countries not friendly to us and top secret information compromised.

    He could have just said something like "It's under FBI investigation and it's up to them to determine if a crime was committed" or something. Then he wouldn't have sounded like a pussy and wouldn't have had confrontation.

      all those people that booed Rand are what's wrong with this country. If we're gonna last deep into the 21st or even 22nd century, those people need to die off and not be replaced.

        I agree with Rand on that point. Toppling dictators has not helped anything but has made things more unstable and worse. I still believe Rand made a huge mistake in attacking Trump early on in the primaries and that has hurt Paul as much as anything. Trump has exposed a big rift in the base of the GOP who are sick of establishment republicans that don't deliver on promises when they go to Washington. The shame of this for Rand Paul is that he is not an establishment republican but by throwing his hat in the ring with establishment republicans like Jeb Bush he has suffered for it.

          I watched it. I'm not a fan of today's Rs at all, but I don't want Hillary.

          To me, Rubio made the most sense (at least last night). Bush & Fiorina need to take a hike. Christie did fine, so did our Governor Kasich (despite my reservations with him).

          There's no way the Rs are going to nominate Trump, but they'd be silly not to keep him around as some kind of economic adviser.

          I don't know how the Rs are going to come together and figure this out, but they better do it real real soon. This infighting, or just a simple lack of a true front-runner isn't a good look. Right now, I doubt I vote D or R, it's a total mess.

            Trump seems like the guy that needs to be the team leader, or he's not on a team.

              Don't kid yourself if Trump keeps garnering Support while the rest of these guys flounder and we get a brokered convention in which he gets fucked out of the nomination he will be pissed off, and rightfully so.

              Then you have to worry about a third party run or the idea that his supporters just stay home rather than vote for Jeb, the candidate that nobody cares about.

              And Hillary rides her broomstick straight into the Oval Office.

                Yep.

                I think he'll win the nomination anyway. At this point he's starting to hit 40% in the polls and Iowa is pretty close. Even if Cruz wins Iowa, looks like Trump will win the nomination.

                If by some chance he doesn't win, he'll just continue yelling on twitter and probably get a new TV show or something.

                ---

                If the RNC does this "Brokered Convention" thing and steals the nomination away from whoever deserves it - then they will lose in 2016 (deservedly so) in a huge landslide. I doubt they do that though.

                If Trump wins, some of the right wingers say "Trump/Cruz 2016!!!!" I think he'd be better off picking somebody who's more moderate to try and win over a bigger voting block. A swing state guy like Kasich would be good, but I sort of expect somebody who isn't in the race currently.

                  Carson I almost feel sorry for. He is way out of his league when discussing anything political. Trump was perfect for the first hour and weakened in the second hour. Rubio I thought was the best debator. Cruz came across as to antagonistic with the moderators. I thought Christie sounded good with his answers. He is a Governor and a former federal prosecutor after all. Kasich frankly I'm surprised he is doing so poorly.

                  Really?

                  I got to watch some of it myself. Out of that lot, I don't mind Paul, myself.

                    Kasich just had this weird penguin flipper thing going on yesterday.

                    He was trying to lay down some sick beats or something.

                    Kasich is basically the same as old fogies like Bush when you get down to it, he's just better at not sounding like an idiot in public.

                      Meaning he doesn't have that Texas swag, but the shit he says is equally as stupid.

                          The only reps I want to vote for, are Cruz and Carson.

                          A Cruz/Carson ticket.

                          Or maybe Cruz/Fiorina.

                          Sometimes, it seems that a lot of democrats are registered as reps, and that's how

                          Trump is doing so well...

                          they want him because higgardly could look nearly like a human being

                          debating him. His BS vs her sombeech stupidass lies and videotape of emails...

                          I think Cruz wins, because when the others drop out... those votes will go to Cruz.

                          Trump has his shallow one liners base, and it's stable, but won't grow dramatically.

                            Every time there is a terror attack, Trump will gain more steam. Not with substance at all but he will resonate with people who are scared shitless.

                                The polls now are pretty much exclusively registered republican likely primary voters, which mostly consists of people who have voted in Republican primaries before.

                                And Trump is winning in all of them.

                                Trump is not a Democrat conspiracy, people actually like him in conservative circles including the Rush Limbaugh hard right winger group. Blaze and breitbart readers are pretty big fans as well.

                                      No. Trump has appeal to voters because we are electing politicians who are at times voting for legislation which is not in the best interest of the American people. That is what the video is speaking about.

                                        Wait, it was on CNN? I thought the GOP was going to pull out of all of that?

                                          It's some kind of carpet ride isn't it?
