"Drugs is one of the greatest scourges in the country" - Kasich 2016

And yeah, the moderators suck. They really need to just cut the mics when they go over, honestly.

[Frumple]

... so has the set caught fire or something, or...?

[smjjames]

And the moderator's are gone. They cannot control this thing at all.

Huh? They're still there, moderating, just very badly.

[smjjames]

... so has the set caught fire or something, or...?

No, just being tossed about in rapids, in a leaking rubber inflatable raft, with no helmet, or paddles.

Also lol, the flash poll they're doing has Trump winning the debate, but he has barely participated in it.

Republican Debate confirmed for being nuclear war: the only winning move is not to play

Fantasy football has no place in a presidential debate. Jesus Christ.

EDIT: Christie called them out on it. Good on him.

[smjjames]

Nice use of that fantasty team metaphor to refer to the republican race on Bush's part.

Bush pretty much punted that one out of the stadium.

[Playergamer]

Eh...FBI investigations into an incredibly shady, basically unregulated stock market.

Still not great topic, but not so ridiculous.

[smjjames]

This is getting ridiculous.

It's BEEN ridiculous from the start. Starting with them beginning almost 15 minutes late.

[smjjames]

Yeah, this debate is so bad that even those guys lower down in the polls are going to get a boost just because of sympathy.

Heck, I think the only person or group that really lost (aside from Carson taking a hit for saying 'remove all subsidies') are CNBC and the moderators.

[misko27]

I can't believe I missed a debate. I'm so upset. Although it doesn't sound like it was a big loss.

Early reports say Rubio was the winner. Thoughts?

I caught part of this on the radio, enough to hear Rubio obfuscate how math works. When they called him on his tax plan, that the largest after-tax increase by percentage would go to the top 1%, he bullshitted past it with "Well of course, 5% of a million dollars is a lot more than 5% of <whatever smaller figure he used>."

Really disappointed nobody called him on that.

Also Trump's "I carry a gun some on occasion...some of the time....I don't like to be too predictable." 
Like anyone believes that shit. And because an unpredictable person is exactly who I want walking around carrying a firearm.

I think he was trying to make a point about unpredictability in front of our enemies.

[DoctorMcTaalik]

Goddammit Christie stop bashing the Democrats with every single sentence you say. No one cares.

Rubio's at it too. Grr.

[RedKing]

Also the Trump bit about H1Bs...."I love H1Bs! People should come here legally."

"Ok, but your website says Rubio wants to triple them and that that will decimate the economy."

"Hey...uh....you know who sucks? OBAMA."

I think he was trying to get the fuck off that question as quick as possible because he knew he has low credibility on that topic.
