Clinton OWNS Debate

[Hal Bent]

And the Hillary-haters can swim in that famous Egyptian river as long as they want!

[Ned_Devine]

1. Dream on

[Hal Bent]

22. Sure, as long as you promise to WAKE UP on the morning of Feb 2nd.....

...and face reality!

[Ned_Devine]

24. The reality that you just signed up last week and think you know what you're talking about?

[Hal Bent]

25. Whether I signed up today, last week, last month, last decade...

I still have eyes and ears. I can see and hear what's happening here in Iowa. And let's face it: When it comes to knowing where this election is headed, membership on DU (or lack thereof) means diddly squat!

35. Clinton OWNS Debate

Exactly. She got center stage for three debates. She got the most questions and the most time to talk in all three.

This is fair in her eyes, I'm sure. It's how America is run. The chosen ones get the cake and the media tells us how lucky we are to get the crumbs.

A fair debate. This was not.

[ucrdem]

3. She did well.

She got hammered on regime change but she seemed to be getting the message. At least I hope so.

[brooklynite]

4. In the worst case she would have won by not losing...

...but she had a solid performance.

Pretty sure everyone stays where they were, poll-wise.

[wyldwolf]

5. not according to the clickety clickers hitting the online polls right now!

[SunSeeker]

6. K & R

[Hepburn]

7. No....not even maybe! LOL

[MH1]

8. Not a Hillary hater here, but don't like how they favored her,

for example by giving her the first word AND the last word. That's bogus.

I think she also had more questions directed to her and got more speaking time from the moderators.

[HoneychildMooseMoss]

13. I agree

I watched the whole debate and it was definitely tilted in favor of Hillary.

[SDJay]

23. Agreed

I'm not a hater either, but this 'primary' is so obviously rigged that it's insulting to me as someone who wants to see a legitimate process play out.

If you have to put your thumb on the scale so obviously to produce the GE candidate you want, shouldn't that be a red flag for the GE? It should be, except for the deplorably incompetent asshole who's running the DNC.

[newfie11]

41. Agreed nt

[Scuba]

43. ^^ This right here ^^

[Rosa Luxemburg]

9. She didn't do well with the Libya issue

It will come back to haunt her

[ViseGrip]

10. Watch it again. Especially the beginning when Sanders explains to America what's really going on.

[NV Whino]

11. BS

in whatever form you want to take that.

[NowSam]

12. She had a very good evening

but I think they all did very well and she is still my last choice. a big reason for that is that the game seems so rigged in her favor. she also changes her positions daily it seems and that makes it impossible for me to trust her. Bernie or MO - they have a better reputation imo. MO may get some movement tonight. He is optimistic and comes across as very capable and compassionate. We all know Bernie by now and he has locked up many of our votes. I think this will be a long battle.

[HoneychildMooseMoss]

15. I was impressed by O'Malley

But I still prefer Bernie.
Hillary's better than the Republicans, but that's a pretty low bar.

[PowerToThePeople]

14. Welcome to DU.

[lunamagica]

16. She did great!

[JaneyVee]

17. K AND R!

18. Bernie Sanders Sweeps Online Polls After Winning Second Democratic Debate

[book_worm]

19. Of course he did because his supporters mobilize to vote for him

let's see what real scientific polls show.

[Matariki]

21. Of course they did - it's what mobilized supporters do

It's what's going to win the election for him. Just like mobilized supporters won the election for Obama.

Where are Hillary's supporters?

[TekGryphon]

31. Karl Rove, is that you?

[artislife]

34. What is so funny to me

is that I think the h supporters have the Rove seat, they seem to believe the polling. And I believe polling is an archaic model that doesn't reflect much in 2015.

[TekGryphon]

49. If you genuinely believe that, then why not get rich off it?

If you think you've found true enlightenment that the scientific polls are jokes and the joke polls are scientific, then put some money on it. You can make a lot of easy cash betting on Bernie Sanders if you're right and 80-90% of the public supports Bernie the way the online polls suggest.

[Juicy_Bellows]

26. "His supporters mobilize to vote for him." not a problem! nt.

[Hal Bent]

29. Too bad the caucuses involve REAL people in a REAL room

Ewww, actual human interaction!!!

[99Forever]

46. Yeah but...

... Camp Weathervane has no access to the Intertubes.



And gives 'em a sadz.

[AzDar]

20. Of course she OWNS it, it was PURCHASED for her... She talked over, under, and around...

Sanders and O'Malley. Fortunately, We the People see it for what it is...

[Kalidurga]

28. This campaign has been brought to you by Goldman Sacs, Exon Mobile, and Monsanto

[artislife]

32. That's what I thought the title of this OP meant

then I saw it was just strutting by a new rooster.

[Hal Bent]

33. Julianne, izzat You?

[longship]

27. I recommend my debate live blog here.

So that everybody can observe, in a DU crazy quilt kind of way.

Hint: the consensus was that they all did well.

Here (links within to the four individual threads):

So, before one spins, one should rejoice in Dem victory.

[840high]

30. Not according to all the polls I've seen.

[riversedge]

36. She did very well.

[Liberal_in_LA]

39. ..

[Betty Karlson]

40. Has she bought it and paid for it? I wouldn't put it past her to do so.

Third Way campaigning: it's all about the money.

[Vinca]

42. Please do not call us "Hillary haters."

We do not hate anyone, we happen to prefer Bernie. In any case, what did the other two dozen people who watched the debate think? Saturday night before Christmas with a Star Wars movie opening to boot . . . HA!

[Renew Deal]

44. Most Democrats are like you

But there are some that are less reasonable

[99Forever]

45. That's certainly an opinion.

And a very special one, at that.


Bless your heart.

[workinclasszero]

47. Hillary was great like always

Doubters go check the news...Hillary won the night

[Gothmog]

48. Hillary Clinton had a great debate last night
