Warren cut his balls off

That was the general consensus on CNN afterwards as well. I didn't watch so I have no opinion of my own.

However I did record and watch "Washington" off the History channel which was on S-M-Tu nights. It's well worth your time to see ole Gen. George warts and all. Very well done with plenty of historians chiming in throughout with a lot of details about the life of a complicated, determined man. Thought it said something that he freed his main manservant upon his death and decreed in his will that all their slaves were to be freed upon the death of Martha who outlived him. None of the other well known founding father slaveowners did that.

Last night reminded me of the Wizard of Oz where the curtain gets pulled back and the "Wizard" gets exposed as a fraud. The image Bloomberg presents in his ads he bombards the airwaves with did not match the Bloomberg live and in person at the debate. Bloomberg came up "short" in living up to his scripted image.

As the rest of the democrats at the debate destroyed each other there was one clear winner last night and he was holding another huge overflow crowd in Phoenix:

In fierce Democratic presidential debate, 1 winner and 5 losers

https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/mary-anne-marsh-in-fierce-democratic-presidential-debate-here-are-winners-and-losers

BIGGEST WINNER: Sen. Elizabeth Warren

With Bloomberg standing to her right Warren landed a left to the jaw with a shattering exchange using his own words about women against him. She then used his nondisclosure agreements, the stop-and-frisk tactic employed by police primarily against minorities when he was mayor, and his vast fortune estimated at more than $60 billion against him too.

Warren continued to hit Bloomberg by using his record as a weapon while she highlighting her own in stark contrast. Bloomberg was unable to respond effectively and his poor performance can’t be fixed by the hundreds of millions of dollars in ads he is buying.

But, that was just the start for Warren. She was determined to be heard and make her mark and she did just that.

Warren spent the debate drawing a sharp contrast with her opponents, making the case for herself for all to see, and laying out her plans. Most of all, Warren demonstrated once again that she could take on Trump and that may be the thing that helped her the most. That fiery Elizabeth Warren has been missing in debates and on the campaign trail of late and she came roaring back Wednesday night.

Warren comes out of this debate with a lot of momentum. If she can capitalize upon it then the results of three big contests from this Saturday to Super Tuesday will reflect it – and will put her back in race as the progressive capitalist.

WHAT STATES VOTE ON SUPER TUESDAY?

BIGGEST LOSER: Former Mayor Michael Bloomberg

Bloomberg’s performance was a disaster. He was not the Bloomberg of his ads in this debate – and that’s now a big problem for him. Spending hundreds of millions of dollars on ads has bought Bloomberg name recognition, good poll numbers and a pole position in the debate – but no amount of money can guarantee a great debate performance.

And that was the case Wednesday night. Voters will see clips of this performance on TV and read about it for days, and it will seriously hurt Bloomberg’s standing in the presidential nomination race.

Warren exposed the real Michael Bloomberg and it was not a pretty picture. It was Warren’s relentless challenge to Bloomberg on a host of issues – including his treatment of women who worked for him and his refusal to release them from nondisclosure agreements – as well as his treatment of people of color with his stop-and-frisk policy.

Bloomberg’s attempts to apologize and explain only made the situation worse. His apology came off as more about convenience than sincerity – and that will register with voters too.

Finally, Bloomberg also sounded a lot like President Trump when asked about releasing his tax returns, raising issues about his lack of transparency. Bloomberg leaned on the fact that he entered the presidential nominating race late, after a deliberate decision to skip the first four contests that require retail politics and the vetting he was experiencing during the televised debate.

By the time Bloomberg releases his tax returns, it will likely be after the Super Tuesday primaries March 3, after a big chunk of primary votes will have been cast. When you add the issue of his taxes to his treatment of women and people of color, Bloomberg will seem a lot more like Trump than the guy who can beat Trump to a lot of voters following his weak debate performance.

LOSER: Sen. Bernie Sanders

Sanders is the front-runner in the polls and in a close second place in the competition for delegates following the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary, but he missed the chance to put this race away with a strong performance Wednesday night.

Instead, the self-described democratic socialist who represents Vermont was repeatedly questioned about his lack of transparency regarding his medical records, his recent heart attack and the cost of his “Medicare-for-all” plan. All this could hurt him.

Clearly, Sanders has decided it is better to take the heat than release his complete medical records in addition to letters he has provided from doctors. But the issue of transparency could hamper Sanders in the remainder of this race.

It wasn’t a bad performance by Sanders. He hit Buttigieg early in the debate – a smart move since Buttigieg is cutting into Sanders’ support among young voters.

Sanders also hit Bloomberg at points in the second hour of the debate. But that didn’t make up for the hits Sanders took early in the night.

The question is whether the lack of transparency by Sanders on several fronts takes hold and hurts him in future contests. We will find out in the next two weeks. If not, then Sanders could continue to add to his delegate count and that could give him an insurmountable lead when the results come in on Super Tuesday.

LOSER: Former Mayor Pete Buttigieg

Buttigieg is the leader in delegates at this early stage from his strong finish in Iowa and New Hampshire. He used the debate to land a few blows on Sanders, with whom he’s locked in a delegate fight. The former mayor also hit Klobuchar, who he is competing with for moderate voters.

While Buttigieg didn’t hurt himself that also means he didn’t help himself. We will see how that factors into the results of the Nevada caucuses Saturday, but the debate was a missed opportunity for him to solidify his status as the early front-runner in the delegate count.

In addition, Buttigieg and Klobuchar had a number of exchanges in their fight for moderate voters. In fact, Klobuchar cost Buttigieg a win in New Hampshire and that dynamic is unlikely to change after Wednesday night’s debate. It was a good but subtle strategy on a night that called for stronger performance by Buttigieg to accelerate his momentum in this race.

LOSER: Sen. Amy Klobuchar

Klobuchar’s last strong debate performance helped her raise $12 million in badly needed campaign contributions and go from the back of the pack to win third place in the New Hampshire primary.

But the senator from Minnesota didn’t deliver that kind of performance Wednesday night. Instead, we saw the Klobuchar of previous debates rather than the star performer of the last debate that gave her the momentum and most undecided voters in the last 72 hours of the New Hampshire primary campaign.

Klobuchar’s challenge will be to convince Nevada voters and a national audience that her performance wasn’t a one-hit-wonder.

LOSER: Former Vice President Joe Biden

Biden’s sights may be set on the Feb. 29 South Carolina primary – where he is counting on strong support from the large number of African-American voters – but he needed to roll the dice to deliver a strong performance Wednesday night to look like a winner.

Instead, Biden did nothing to help himself. He looked like a tourist in Las Vegas rather than someone who should own the stage. Biden did little if anything to reassure voters he’s the best one to take on Trump or stem his slide in the polls. And that’s more bad news for Biden in this race.

Nevada voters began early caucusing this week and when we see results of their caucuses Saturday we will have a stronger indication of where the Democratic nomination battle is headed.

Wake TF up.

The Dems (Politicians) hate this Country and are only interested in Power and the $ they can get from that.

You currently have Communists and Socialists running for the Presidential nomination.

 

Anti-Constitution.

 

Do we need to throw in Gun confiscation, Open Borders, Illegals voting (any other Country would Jail these people), Free Speech attacks/restrictions/censorship, and on and on ?

 

Applies to RINO's as well, but there are no where near as many of those, and the only reason they're there is they couldn't get elected as D's where they're from.

It has been brought up that the Dems have not had Flags displayed at their debates, this video shows them removing a Flag from the Stage that someone had placed.

Hell, in the first debates the decor resembled the EU.
 

#1 - Yes, there are stupid people out there, the biggest problem is the (intentional) misinformation.

 

#3 - That's just an avatar, just grabbed for the video.

Woodpeckers give themselves brain damage – but this could be a good thing, scientists say. Birds have symptoms similar to those seen in neurodegenerative disease patients

*********************

And that is likely to me why they removed the flag but in looking at the video I would give them the benefit of the doubt that it could have possibly been removed because it looked like it was placed in front of the democrat candidates and might have blocked the view of some in the audience?

Well in a way. If we are just basing this election on personality I guess that was a severe blow to a guy running against Trump the people mostly hate because he's kind of an asshole.

But I don't think she scored any policy points.

Oh god you're the fucking worst. This type of thing may even be worse than Cal's. I'm not sure 

 

Telling all of these "sheeple" to "wake up" while you're blindly following your own nonsense.

Conspiracy theorists are found to be people that are pretty insignificant in normal life. It gives them a sense of power to feel like they "get" something the "sheeple" don't. And with the internet they all get to congregate and validate each other. A breeding ground for flat Earth nonsense and the like.

But you aren't better than anyone. You don't know the "real truth". You're just an idiot wanting to feel like he's unique and knows something others don't.

 

There's literally a giant flag on the LED screen and this Twitter rando is making it seem like some big conspiracy theory.

It's brought out for the pledge, and then it was moved because it blocked the candidates. 

 

Don't take all of these stupid, rando, anon Twitter profiles as your source for news. Hate the "mainstream media", whatever, but don't turn to this

Sad.

No, I don't know everything   .   .   .   and maybe that is the Keystone.

 

Too many Secrets.

 

History is a lie   .   .   .   the "Victor" writes History.

PC Culture, is there really a Victor, or do people just get tired of the ridiculous BS ?

 

Absolutely I have been wrong on the timing, but the Train is coming.

It's getting closer every day, it's taking as long as it has to give people a chance to wake and see what is going on.

 

I saw the lies long ago, and they keep repeating them over and over, thinking that will change things.

Clock is running, we're already seeing things pick up since the Russia, Russia, Russia / Impeachment BS (as well as many others) have been shown to be nothing more than hoaxes.

 

I think we have at least three more stages too this Rocket, though it could well be less.

* From now through Election

* From Election through Mid Terms (2022)

* From Mid Terms to end of Term (?)

 

It is quite possible two of those are irrelevant.

The last one has a lot of wrinkles   .   .   .

 

Do you seriously want a Socialist/Communist Leader for this Country ?

You have that, or Trump - just the way it is.

 

People are not perfect.

Politicians are far from perfect.

 

We have to work with what we have, and right now, as Constitutionalist we have the best set up we've had since the Founding of this Country.

 

This may well be the greatest time in the history of this Nation (outside the initial Founding), it's sad too see so many still believing the lies of the Enemy.

 

 

We have things coming that people are not going to believe.

Bold statement ?

Yep, but we're seeing hints of what they are more and more each day   .   .   .   too much too soon is a shock most folk are not yet ready for.

 

Watch, adjust, adapt   .   .   .   and know more is coming.

I remember I used to think older people were wiser then I became an adult and could better realize when they were fucking up. As a general rule, if you are a crayon eater in your 20s that doesn’t get any better. They just get more of a pass later on.
