Even Romney?

I see him getting in somehow, perhaps as someones running mate.

I feel like Trump is going to ask Kasich to be his vp

No I am not voting for a GOP or DNC candidate.

a reply to: EmmanuelGoldstein

Oh well, until that dreadful day arrives - Go Bernie!

The way I see it based on the front runners:

Rubio,cruz,Kasich: not worth even showing up to vote.

Trump: Only if Hillary is selected.

Sanders: Is the only one that I see some good coming from this election. Our biggest issue is corruption and he is the only one that is really bringing it to the forefront. I'm not worried about his socialist views because we have an Oligarch now and going to socialism is a down grade for the establishment. Plus as president he cant do anything without congress, so I expect a lame duck congress.

Hence the only positive I see out of the 2016 election is:
Bernie as president talking about corruption on the MSM. Its a minuscule step , but a step in the right direction nonetheless.

Plus I like lame-duck congress since congress has a tendencies to only pass things that favor Oligopolies on the back of the regular tax payer.

Trump is more corrupt then anyone on that stage and thats a damn fact

My point wasn't to support trump as I trust him as much as I wish I had his hair.

However, I think Rubio is more desperate and doesn't have the finances to be selective on what he would be willing to do and wouldn't do. Having a corrupt desperate politician is very dangerous as well.

Bottom, line I think the GOP needs to beg for forgiveness and bring back Ron Paul. That line up of candidates is disquieting.

Its no wonder that people are so angered that they are putting their hope on a false prophet.

LMAO so agreed man, I miss Ron and Rand.......i wasnt accusing you , my statement was general

Have faith in Reason

I don't know who won that debate, but clearly the GOP and the American people lost.

lol trump screwed up and ended it with insults

RIP gop

This is a joke of a debate.

They have all been jokes. There is no debate. They are interviews, gotcha questions, softballs, and shouting matches.

Good lord, I'm just starting to watch it (I recorded it).

What a freaking embarrassment and spectacle.

The intro sounds like a WWE announcer is doing the talking. Then they have some country singer mess up the national anthem (it's OF the brave not FOR the brave). The music is all ominous *dun dun da!*

This is sad ...

Can I have faith that Bernie will die and/or disappear after saying more cryptic/mangled garbage grammar?

That's pretty much my thought. Bernie might get a little campaign or wall street reform passed and that's about it, but that would be better than the rest of them.

Even the conservatives must be embarrassed to be associated with that phony BS.

I was leaning toward Trump, not as a supporter, but out of necessity. But Rubio schooled him along with Cruz.

Trump looks weak on actual answers and POLICY. I'm over Trump's attacks to avoid the issues. This is SH1T children do...

If Rubio started out like this he would have had my attention more, and Donald less.

But Rubio has been a LIAR on Immigration up till tonight.

Again, where was THIS Rubio earlier.?

I CAN definitely say that watching this made me embarrassed to be an American. I so wish I had been up on that stage to rip all these children a new poop chute

I just can't trust Rubio on immigration. If it weren't for the TEA Party, Rubio wouldn't be where he is now, and as soon as he hit DC, he cozied up and started making legalization moves with the Gang of 8. I don't care what they say. Legalize them and the next move will be to grant them full citizenship because it just wouldn't be "fair" for them to live here and not have it.

We all know it.

Any move to legitimize the lawbreakers is a move to grant them amnesty.

I am so tired of Trump. It is easy to call someone a liar, and then you shift the topic to them personally rather than issues. I'm getting tired of it.

Well, at least they didn't take off their shoes and throw them at each other, like the politicians did in Australia.

Trump's post-debate composure and temperament during the CNN interview was remarkable. He just shrugged off Cruze and Rubio, saying that "They simply did what they had to do at this point, because they're losing so badly". He ended it by saying to the CNN interviewer, Cuomo, "I'm tired of talking with you...others want to talk to me.". God I love his direct bluntness when dealing with these stuff-shirt media people.

The worst thing we've done in America in the past 20 years, is turn the debates into an entertainment venue and try to mass market the political process. It's gotten us stage show debates, actor politicians, actual branded teams, and a dumbed down process. Politics works best when it's extremely boring and most people don't care... CSPAN has it right.

Trump: Only if Hillary is selected.

You dont get it , even if hillary is chosen donald will lose the presidency..........period

Not only does every poll on a head to head with them show her winning by vast margins, but she has her game honed on the topics..........Trump doesnt know JACK , his knowledge of how foreign policy works or the gov in general (other than buying out politicians) is almost NILL......The left has not even begun to start exposing and attacking him yet.....

The best scenario for the left, is a Trump nomination, and any libera/democrat will acknowledge that

Hillary will destroy him.......

a reply to: ManBehindTheMask

The left may not have, but so far, he has been the Teflon Don, too. Nothing anyone has done to expose or attack him has done much more than strengthen him.

It's like Obi Wan ... Strike me down, Darth, and I will only get stronger.

I honestly am beginning to think people simply hate DC and the media just that much. They may not like Trump, but they hate them more.

a reply to: ManBehindTheMask

I think you don't get it, I never said that he would win, I just said that is the only way that I could vote for Trump. Actually I have stated that the cards have been drawn for Hillary long ago back in 08.

She is to well connected and egotistical to run a second time and not have been promised the win.

Also because several big lobbyist are making too much money of Obamacare, they don't want to repeal it, so its has to be a democrat in 2016 to seal its fate. Its not that a Republican would repeal it , but it would be easier for the masses to swallow if a democrat got elected than trying to explain how republicans won and Obamacare wasn't removed.

Trump doesnt know JACK , his knowledge of how foreign policy works or the gov in general (other than buying out politicians) is almost NILL..

Agreed, never claimed different.

No, the best scenario for the left is Sanders.

Hillary will destroy him.

Thats already our fate for the reasons I stated above.

Their is to many billions on the line to take 50/50 chances on which party wins. Especially when they don't have to and its legal for both the DNC and the GOP to whore them selves out. There is a reason that both DNC and GOP candidates have consistenly given you the same things despite opposing rhetoric:

Bigger govt' , more debt, more world conflict, more taxes, less state rights, less privacy rights, Using tax payers mone to pick the winners and losers on the market, more Oligopoly friendly regulations at the expense of the consumer , etc ....

The DNC and the GOP are one in the same and are simply tools of the Oligarch in charge to make sure the right CANDIDATES get selected not so much the PARTY.

Rubio, Cruz and Clinton will give us the same gov't and the same things just like in the past, its not even worth voting for. Trump is a big gamble and risk, but I would pick him over the continuous repetition of crap we have had.

Hillary is the only thing that could push me to vote for Trump , but in the end she already has this election.

Wait...

Trump is criticizing Vicente Fox about the language he used about not paying for the wall? Hypocrite much? Good lord.

No wall is going to work. It didn't even stop people in Germany during the iron curtain days with the Berlin Wall, or the DMZ in Korea.
