'Socialist' Sanders Vs 'Crony' Clinton: First Democratic Debate Begins - Live Feed

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Admittedly it's not Mayweather-Pacquiao, but Las Vegas is buzzing ahead of tonight's rumble-in-the-jungle between Bernie and The Battle-axe. While Joe Biden remains the most notable absentee (or will he?) there are three other 'debaters' to carry water and towels for Hillary and Bernie as they drag one another left-er and left-er and more populist-er. In the pre-fight Sanders has lobbed some awkward Iraq War questions at 'hawkish' Hillary but as Clinton's 2008 campaign manager notes, "she's rolled out Latinos for Hillary, Women for Hillary, and met the leadership of Black Lives Matter; she has checked a lot of boxes walking into this debate."

It's not different this time..

And it's getting worse...

 

Search interest shows them neck and neck...

*  *  *

This seemed to sum up the pre-show rather well...

USA Today offers six things to watch for during the debate...

1. Steam from the Hillary grilling

If the CNN debate moderators treat this as their chance to grill Clinton on live TV instead of carrying out an actual debate where other candidates are allotted plenty of time to make their case, “Democrats will likely be frustrated,” said Pat Rynard, a former Democratic campaign staffer from Iowa.

2. The Biden shadow

Even if he’s not on the stage, “Joe is a real part of the debate,” said Democrat Patty Judge, a former Iowa lieutenant governor.

“Sadly,” added Rynard, “in terms of the media narrative, nothing in the debate may matter if Biden announces his intentions the next day and wipes out all the coverage. Hopefully that doesn’t happen, but it’s near when Biden has to make a decision for ballot purposes.”

3. Sanders’ fidelity to fixed talking points

The liberal messenger could miss an opportunity if he expounds only a dry, policy-heavy message, Democrats said.

“He really refuses to deviate much from his economic inequality shtick on the campaign trail — which, to be fair, is a very powerful message that has gotten him far,” said Rynard, who writes about presidential politics on the website Iowa Starting Line. “(But) debates tend to favor interaction and candidates quick on their toes who can give punchy responses.”

4. Two debates in one

One debate will likely be a policy contest between Clinton and Sanders, both of whom have declined to stray into personal attacks, observers said.

“She will continue to move herself to the left in order to appeal to undecideds and to those who are leaning to Sanders but not firmly in his camp,” Judge said of Clinton. “She will also try to continue to distance herself from the Obama administration to give herself room to take on Biden if he gets into the race.”

The second debate could feature hard swings from the low-polling contenders, especially O’Malley, who has gotten increasingly personal in drawing contrasts with Clinton.

Watch for gun control, trade, banks and foreign policy to take center stage, said Michael Cheney, a professor of communication and economics at the University of Illinois at Springfield.

5. O’Malley’s moment?

Many Democrats worry that Sanders’ “socialist” label and Clinton’s struggles with her email controversy would badly hinder them in the general election, Rynard said.

O’Malley has run a serious campaign and impressed Democrats who go see him. But he barely attracts national media coverage, and many voters haven’t noticed him yet.

Cutter said: “This is the last best chance for Martin O’Malley.”

O’Malley needs to pull votes from Sanders, she said. “If he doesn’t distinguish himself as the person more likely to achieve results for a progressive agenda, rather than just a protest,” Cutter said, “then he’s out.”

6. The invisible Democrats

It’s now or never for Webb and Chafee, neither of whom do any real campaigning, Rynard said.

“At this point, they’re just taking up space,” he said.

Democrats said they’re hesitant to take either candidate seriously when even low-polling GOP candidates such as Rick Santorum, Bobby Jindal and Lindsey Graham throw energy into reaching out to early state voters.

But debates are fertile ground for earning a bump in the polls, strategists noted.

“The best debaters,” Sefl said, “are those who don’t look like they rehearsed their one-liners thousands of times, and who know how to demonstrate command of the issues without being the annoying kid from class who always raised their hand to every question.”

Spot The Difference...

 

We suspect this debate will be a little "drier" than The Trump Show, so here is a Drinking Game to make it a little more enjoyable...

 

And for the kids and non-drinkers...

 

Of course - as we noted earlier - the biggest 'donkey' in the room is...

That's the problem for them- gun control and global warming tank near the bottow with most people, as much as left tries to talk about them. People care about the economy, debt, and jobs, and it's tough for them to say they will do better than Obama when all they have to offer is the same shit that hasn't worked, just phrased a little differently.

I would worry about a 3rd Obama term except for one thing.  He's lazy as cat shit.  He doesn't want a third term and wouldn't have the energy necessary to again twist the Constitution in to pretzels to force one.  He just wants to build his library, set up his "charitable crime organization" (a la the Clintons) and rake in massive donor bucks while he sucks Reggie's cock and reassures himself he was the greatest president in the history of the country.  No matter what anybody says to the contrary.

That Democratic Drinking Game will soon be a whole lot more expensive if the drink is beer.  While Hillary lies and Bernie Sanders mumbles catatonically about something useless, Carlos Brito in Brazil is about to get a stranglehold on the worldwide beer industry.  Obama, the NWO President, will make sure that no federal agency blocks the ABInBev merger with SABMiller.  Just like that, in less than 10 years, Brito will have taken over about half of the world's beer brewing capacity.  What is happening in the beer industry has happened in healthcare, in the entertainment industry and soon, with the TPP in world government.  A few NWO controlled people are taking over control of all the world's resources and governments.  With near total silence from Western governments or the paid off press.  Meanwhile, "Mumbles" Sanders tells everyone his solutions to problems no one cares about.  And no one asks how Debbie Wasserman Shultz is still the head of the DNC after leading the Democrats to total disaster in the 2014 election. The same Wasserman Shultz whose politician parents went to jail for political corruption and tax evasion.

---

"A $104.2 billion combination of the world’s two biggest brewers, Anheuser-Busch InBev NV and SABMiller PLC, would redraw the map of the global beer industry and is likely to trigger higher beer prices for consumers around the world."

It's just so EXCITING waiting to see if Uncle Joe will honor is son's dying request (as reported by Joe himself).  I think they need to marinade Hillary in the email scandal for a little longer before she's tenderized enough for Joe to walk in the kitchen and stick a fork in her.

If they were going to slap her with charges it would have happened already.  This email scandal was meant to wound and weaken, not prosecute for conviction.

It'll be hysterical when Hillary publishes her next book (which, again, nobody will read) and she has to claim her second presidential bid was sunk by a vast LEFT wing conspiracy.

That is why the narrative was focused on "emails" as opposed to Benghazi, ineptitude, or treason.  Americans just think "what's the big deal about emails".  As God said, since we refuse to acknowledge Him He has gave U.S. over to reprobate minds.  No one can disagree except for the ones with the reprobate mind.  We are under divine wrath and we have yet to experience what that is going to look like and for most they will cry out for death.

Hey eb, I put up one of those old 1957 di-pole antennas you see on the roofs of the old Honeymooners episodes.  It pulls in over 60 crystal clear channels, never an adjustment necessary.  Even the noobs from the cable company that come out to try to sell me can't seem to absorb it.  Funny.

Uh, maybe I'm mistaken, but today, at least in Merika, one needs a antenna designed for digital signals.  Maybe it looks like a circa 1950's antenna, but it ain't.  It wouldn't work for us.  Probably not a single station due to the mountains.

My house came equipped with a 60's antenna. Guess what? It picks up all channels in HD that can be received.

 

It's not the antenna, it's the tuner in the television. There are two types: analog and digital. The analog tuners needed coverter boxes (everyone remember those?) but the newer TV sets can pick it up with any antenna.

 

I get CBS in HD, PBS in HD and one other channel out here in the boonies. But the truth is that on-air TV is the most propaganda laden of all media.  I find the commercials are every bit if not more egregious than the programming itself.  4 minutes of commercials for every 10 minutes of programming?

FUCK.
THAT.

Ah Bernie Sanders sounds like he is too slow. It is a rythem problem, a tempo problems, a time limit problem, he doesn't have enough time to pause for dramatic effect.

- There are smart pills available
- Bernie should think about trying smart pills
- Bernie's policies problems could be over-come by some networking, some learning, and some mentoring
- But now Bernie looks like a loser at 21:38 minutes

- 21:40 minutes he sounds better, sounds like aware of Vietnam and war

- 22:00 Minutes in he states he is on for Climate Change Reform, but is he in for making some banker rich through Cap and Trade? How does it work Bernie? Like a Stock Market it makes an Elite guy rich from fees and interest/usury, Hey Bernie maybe the idea of usury instead of labor based capitalism is a big catastrophe, maybe Cap and Trade and International Free Trade, the WTO, the NAFTA, are all just Schemes to make Elites rich??

Unlike Clinton and the neocon Republicans Sanders does not try to pull his fingers forcefully out of a chinese finger trap, consequently it can appear bad in this debate format.

Jesus, Hillary has a great face lift.

I never saw her looking like that.

Maybe she had a stroke and got rehab to fix the fitness problems?

Wow...A WTF moment from Bernie the White Knight riding in, and gallantly saving old Broomstick Hilda from Anderson Cooper, filleting her on the emails, just when AC was moving in for the kill....Great theatre, great script, wouldn't believed it if I hadn't see it with my own eyes.

Time for a very large scotch...

Am I the only one who thinks Hillary says stupid things to stir the water? Just so the republicans go crazy and the dems cheer. Either way she gets her pockets lined.
On my Facebook (I know it's horrible) people hate the other party. It's turned into hatred. And it's on racial lines/wealth lines. America is being torn apart by the dumbest things.
Sanders has the right diagnosis but the wrong prescription.
Ron Paul was right 8 years ago but that would have been an uphill climb and fat america wanted to kick the can instead.

Hillary in a huge hurry to get off the topic of finance and financial regulation.

She's clueless, deer-in-headlights, when it comes to whether Dodd Frank is a proper replacement for Glass Steagall.  She probably has no basic idea what either one does, or did, or whether we could go back to G-S, or why we would want to.  Despite saying she represented Wall Street as NY Senator.

By the way Ron Paul, your hero, was deceptive and wrong.  Audit the Fed?  Good idea.  That's why Deloitte annually audits the Board of Governors, and each of the 12 Reserve Banks, and all those audit opinions are posted (current and from prior years) on the Fed Board of Governors website.

I was puzzled he was making a deal out of this so I sent him an email showing him where those audit opinions are posted.  He didn't reply.  Of course not, I was taking away his pet issue with too many facts.

Hillary is such a Shill for TBTF Banks.

- Bernie has street Cred
- Bernie fought for more
- Bernie is asking for more
- Bernie knows we deregulated Banks and this is huge National Risk

- Hillary not so much, Hillary sucks up to the corrupting Banks. Hillary speaks for big TBTF Banks

- US Private Federal Central Bank, US Federal Reserve is watching this Debate, Reform is needed, maybe the Central Bank should be Dissolved
- Maybe the US Federal Reserve as a Private Stockholder Bank should have never been created

- Maybe we suffer today in Savings Bonds, Interest on Savings Deposits, safe investments, safe pensions, safe retirement accounts, and safe Bank reserves under Basel Accords for 2015, 2016, known as Basel III Reserve Requirements which had competition from QE Programs

Fed won't be dissolved.  Every significant country and most of the insignificant ones have central banks now.  Sometimes they act on behalf of the countries they "represent", sometimes they don't, but they are now everywhere.

You are correct. The FED is the ultimate backstop for the Worlds financial system. Countries will do anything, even against their own people to keep the FED in operation.

Anyone who does not understand this is a FOOL.

Hillary wants to put people in jail for something else, I think it was financial crimes.

This is all pretty funny coming from Hillary, who should be in jail herself for her crimes with classified information.  Maybe she just has jail on the mind recently.

Webb is sharp, much better than Chaffee.  Heck Webb is looking much better than Hillary.  O'Malley is not impressive with his answers but his public speaking is better than Chaffe. 

Sanders is just a tired old Socialist but at least he is honest about who he is unlike Hillary.

Not a great showing for Hillary but that is no surprise.

O'Malley may sound OK but he leaves out that all this leftist stuff he did as former Maryland governor ran up a big deficit and he got thrown out of office because of it.  So now he wants to do the same on a national level?

If the candidates were really allowed to engage each other, someone might say that.

But probably not because nobody is scared of O'Malley, nobody feels the need to attack him.

Everyone should understand that Clinton never won an election fair and square.  She was placed as the Dem. Senate nominee from NY (pushing Nita Lowey out of the way, whose turn it was to move up from the House) and she had to buy that Chappaqua house fast to establish residency in NY.

Then she won the general because a warm pile of turds could win for Senate in NY as the Dem. nominee, it's that automatic.

Webb is the only serious and SANE Democratic Party Candidate that is running for President.

All others hold insane positions on almost all issues that face the American people. How is it possible that there are voters in our country today, who willfully believe that Democratic Party Governance for another 4 to 8 years is the way to go, especially with this gaggle of candidates???????????

Clinton's comment about finding the Chinese and the Indians and dragging China into some agreement about climate change, is the first decent sounding accomplishment she's cited.

I disagree with the CO2 limits, but I know that others are believers in the AGW theory, and they will see what she did as effective.

Hillary on her and the President's trip to climate change summit in Copenhagen..."President Obama and I were literally hunting for the Chinese.  They told us they had left for the airport, we found out they were having a secret meeting but we broke in and forced them to have a meaningful meeting with them."

I bet the Chinese were like oh brother how do we get these idiots out of our meeting...oh yeah just nod our heads a bunch and smile and they will tell us we have to act now or else the world will blow up .00000001 degrees and we all die.

I just saw the Wal-Mart workers commercial all asking Bernie and Hillary are you with us?  I have a suggestion for them, you don't like your pay quit if you can't get a raise or a promotion, i have done that many times since my first job flipping burgers as teenager and all the joe jobs in college and then the pay your dues jobs after college.

It is called evolve or stay where you are, grow or die, whatever just don't blame your income on your gov't it will always be your performance and your choices you made, no one forced you, that only happens if Hillary can set up her and Bernie and Barry's Socialist Utopia.  Unless of course you are a politician or teacher with tenure then you can be a turd and get paid more than you are worth.

The Venezuala model?

The Cuba model?

The North Korea model?

There are plenty to choose from.
