Will the CNN Demobait be good, awful, stupid or what?

[puniraptor]

he only talked like a robot because he memorized massive monologues for word for word recitation

[john "teach me how to" dougie]

they would be able to retire the TOTUS, which is probably a good thing. Pretty worn out by now.

[star seed 7]

Monotone empathy voice.

Also has nothing to do with the water. Watch him on tv, he gets nervous, starts talking too fast and starts stumbling on words. Puni is probably right that it's too much memorization, but he looks like his heart is about to beat out of his chest. He's just not comfortable speaking in public.

One on one interviews don't seem to stress him as much.


You don't have to go off the deep end when people offer observations on him. It wasn't an attack on his character, good grief ksuw.

[star seed 7]

Teleprompter zing!

[puniraptor]

i agree that he could easily be observed as a nervous nelly even if the water thing never happened.

the water thing is a boon because of all the exposure and it gives him something to joke about

[MakeItRain]

KSUW's ongoing rant of the democrat candidates electability and shallow pool is hilarious, did he forget the three leading republican candidates are Donald Trump, Ben Carson, and Carly Fiorina?

Im not talking about front runners. I'm talking about depth. The GOP could put a dozen candidates on stage before getting to Lincoln Chafee level.

Now if you want to talk front runners, I'd say that Carson, Fiorina, and even Trump are more electable than Sanders or Hillary. One is an avowed socialist, and the other could quite possibly be indicted in the next few months.

Why do I say that? It is A FACT that Hillary sent and received over 500 emails on her private server containing classified information. Her only hope is her excuse that she didn't know they were classified, which is incredibly weak given that she was Secretary of State and the subject matter of those emails.

  wow, I'm glad you're back. This is great.

 @k-'-'-', will you say out loud that you really think sanders could not beat ben carson in a general election?

Not going off the deep end - I just don't hear what you're hearing. He speaks quickly because he's got a lot to say and he's so fluent that he doesn't have to hesitate. This is not a matter of memorization - he has talking points like any other politician, but he quickly tailors his answers to the questions. I have not heard him stumbling over words. Do you have some examples?

[Rage Against the McKee]

Jeb is still my favorite candidate. I like Rubio, too, but Jeb is the best person in the field.

[puniraptor]

it's about his eyes, moisture level, and visible tremors in his flesh

[star seed 7]

Yes, the darting eyes, I forgot to include that

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

@k-'-'-', will you say out loud that you really think sanders could not beat ben carson in a general election?

"Sanders would not beat Ben Carson in a general election."

I'm curious why you've singled out Ben Carson, btw. He has much higher favorability ratings than Trump. He's said some whacky things, but he's much, much, much more likable than most other candidates on either side (including grumpy old Bernie) and that covers over a lot of flaws.

[puniraptor]

i actually find jeb tolerable as well, but the american in me wants to crush all monarchies and dynasties so he is excluded

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

Huh. I'll watch for the darting eyes next time.

i have singled out ben carson because i believe that he is the most unelectable of the red frontrunners, and because i believe that you believe he is electable.

[star seed 7]

I guess it's a positive he doesn't have dead inside politician eyes yet

I watched Fox News and they were giddy that Bernie is a socialist and Hillary seems to be moving left. They thought they would get all of the moderates and independents, again forgetting that their leading candidates are Trump, Carson, and Fiorina; as if independents and moderates would love any of those people.

Hillary will probably win the nomination she will face either Rubio or Bush; she will move back right, they will move left and we will be left with the status quo.

same.  i've always said that i'd never vote for a 2nd member of any political family.  jeb could possibly test that, if he lasts long enough for me to vote on him.  i find him appealing.

[steve dave]

I could vote for Jeb. Bernie Sanders is much more electable than any of the three candidates currently leading the GOP polls.

I hadn't had a chance to jump on here since the debate. I was surprised no one commented on the: "Do black lives matter, or do all lives matter?" question. Absolutely ludicrous.

Or the fact that Bernie's campaign spent a six figure sum to pay to have #debatewithBernie trending on twitter.

That question was really good actually, unsurprisingly webb was the only one who failed miserably.

It is outrageous that a campaign spent marketing money on social media marketing.  eff that guy.

Should I waste my time explaining to you about what black lives matter means, or will you not listen to me and continue to listen to the bullshit that rush, megyn, hannity, and mike savage are feeding you?

[puniraptor]

the point of the question is that the "all lives matter" crew doesnt rough ridin' get it and it was a test to see if you got it or not. I think martin o gets it (in an academic sense of course) the most based on his answer.

im not 100% bernie gets it based on his answer.

We all know what it means. Black lives matter, unless you're a black fetus, or youre being killed by another black person, or - well, black lives matter whenever you get killed by a white person, typically during commission of a crime.
