I suppose if you split hairs over chapter 11 vs chapter 7.

I'm sure theres technicalities somewhere.

Kasich also said that he wants to get down to details and stop the fighting, heh.

Well Trump does have a lot of hairs to split.  Four of them to be precise.

And it's on, and damn CNN is making them go for the throats. I hate to say it, but I think Fox News had the more principled take on this debate. If this continues, it's going to end up in fisticuffs (and damn that will be fun to watch). Christie be like "Yo, CNN, what is this", John Kasich going "Hey wait this is stupid and unproductive", CNN is like "no it ain't, we're getting to the serious stuff, now get back to arguing".

It's glorious political theater. I guess there is something worthwhile in the sense that, if a President can't handle idiotic political theater, they sure as hell can't handle being President.

There's more than a few people who think CNN put the podiums within arms reach of each other for just that reason.  Especially with Trump and Bush now straight up arguing with each other.

Since I'll be able to vote this election, I might as well say that I'm probably going to vote for the tallest candidate(maybe Biden if he runs) since I don't particularly like any of the current possible candidates.

Can any Floridians fact check whether Trump wanted to build casinos in Florida as Bush claims and Trump denies?

(Wow Bush is so tall. Wow Clinton is like my sisters height. Why are there so many tall politicians. Even de Blasio is like 6'5. Maybe I should go into politics, since apparently that's what tall people do.)

Hmm. I'd guess that most people are more likely to irrationally vote for the taller candidate. Meaning that if you're going to vote based on arbitrary traits, you should vote for the shortest, counteracting their irrationality and thus pushing the general trend towards rational democracy.
I think I know what I'm talking about.

It's because tall people have their heads in the clouds and can see beyond the horizon for maximum planning skills

These guys do realize that they're not running for President against Barack Obama, don't they?  He's not going to leave any faster because they make forceful monologues about him.
