Who is watching? Hillary coming out strong in defense of Obamacare being the ideal system. Going to be a tough watch.

Example of difficult question?
Question for BS: Obama just spent ten years worth of revenue on 7 years of expenditures. How will you get spending under control so that ten more years down the road we don't see half of our revenue going for interest payments? Just kidding! How much do we need to raise taxes on the filthy rich Koch brothers to pay for more Sociology degrees for deserving American middle class kids?

You think austerity fixes that problem?

Drill down on what Bernie's ideas will really cost and how we will pay for it all. Everyone knows raising taxes on the top one percent is not nearly sufficient. It will take tax increases across all income levels.

When Hillary is bragging about her unwavering pro choice beliefs, ask her if there should be in limits on abortion. Should it be legal in the third trimester when the fetus and mother are healthy? How far will she go with pro choice?

Abortion? This is the democratic debate.

As far as Sander paying for plans he has mentioned taxes raising for universal healthcare. He pays for the public colleges with a tax on speculation. I'm sure you can find more online instead of pushing Hillary's talking points.
 
In practice yes, but I was more so pointing out the 800 times she mentioned Obama.
I'm watching the game, but I noticed at halftime that she said the number of contributions pointed to the people that wanted change. I thought that was odd as she appears to be offering little change. Now that's fine with me as I'm pretty happy, but it seems a muddled message to be for change and staying with Obama's path.

In practice I think hill could be a big change. I bet she would be for compromising to reform SS and Medicare which would be huge. She will triangulate to get her key issues passed. She will be more quick on the the military trigger IMO. But I don't much like the change she would stand for so probably better to say she would be BHO 2.0.

She won't have too much enthusiasm from the progressive base of she goes on forget the nomination. Not with her no we can't strategy.
 
Nobody even cares what the candidates have to say. they're just waiting for an Oops moment. Dems are at a disadvantage here since they have to talk 4x as much as the reps in an 8-person debate. But they'll also be better prepared for the general debates. It would be a whole new ballgame for Trump.

I don't doubt that the media is waiting for that moment and those that follow it to be spoon fed it.
 
Who would have guessed that a debate hosted by PBS failed to ask Hilliary a question about the emails? That was slow pitch softball batting practice. Gross.

HighLife - When you list the many problems facing this country where do you rate the e-mail thing amongst them?

Good question and I'm not sure where I would put it in a scale of 1-10. What I do know is these debates are like job interviews for the POTUS. These are meant to be uncomfortable with tough questions.
 
Didn't see it - did Woodruff disclose at the beginning that she has donated to the Clinton Foundation?
HAHA - the Left will NEVER have a tough question asked. The moderators throw snowballs up and let the she-devil melt them with her eyes.

Soybean, you may consider this to be "a little thing". Fair characterization? Well, I bet you've been around long enough to know that people who lie and cheat on "little things" are the worst people to get too connected to, because when you peel back their stinky onion layers, you find a lot more problems than you'd ever imagined. We don't need a POTUS that feels she (and her family) are above the law and consequences for her actions.

This is a really silly and irrelevant question, Bean. Typical of your ongoing and increasingly pathetic attempts to defend the indefensible, however.

It would be sort of bad ass to have a she devil as president right? Wait until she takes the wig off and stabs Putin with her horns.
