3rd Republican Debate Predictions

[Apexis]

Someone else made this point a while ago. The republicans figured out that they can say whatever crazy shit they want and no one on that stage can call each other out. If they did they would be admitting that they have been full of shit for a while now. I think the crazy is finally starting to catch up to them.

Both parties do this every election cycle, they promise the world and hardly deliver on anything meaningful in the end once the congress and senate get there hands on the bills they send up. If you really think Bernie and now Hillary are going to be able to raise taxes high enough for people to get free college degrees, then you really are just another in a long list of sheep that came before you. Even Obamacare that was bandied about as being something wonderful is starting to show its ugly head. The various thing that were told early on about how it was going to drive up cost are coming true and many that had insurance last year won't be able to afford it this year.

None these people running for president will do much of anything, because it just won't happen, because they simply can't deliver on their promises. Executive orders can only go so far and they are not permanent. If any of these people plan on really doing anything they are going to have to work with congress and the senate and it won't matter which party is in control. Both these parties literally suck ass and the last couple president's and their congress's have done more to tank this country, then all the other ones combined.

The Republican clown car rides again! I can't wait to see what their plans are for destroying America.

Can't be any worse than the sideshow being run by the Democrats. Can't wait to see how much race-baiting and political whoring they engage in to try and dupe the gullible black vote. I'm just waiting to see how racist Democrats are this election, and exactly how low the party of Jefferson Davis stoops when they realize that Ben Carson is their biggest threat.

Will they allow #Blacklivesmatter zealots to call for his death as they do cops?

I bet they will, or won't correct them when it is said.

You seem a bit obsessed with dark skin.

[McCulloch]

Bush will fumble like he always does. Rubio will try for a breakout performance, no idea if he'll succeed or not. Trump will say something stupid. Carson will give a crazy policy proposal in his monotone voice. Fiorina will say very little while projecting an air of strength and get praise for it. The rest will continue to languish in irrelevance.

Ever heard of the Southern Strategy? Party of Jefferson Davis my ass. Also, I hope Carson is the nominee, because he is no threat at all.

[Nachturnal]

Let's See.

1. Insults
2. Convoluted statements outside the realm of intelligence that will become memes for months.
3. Obama
4. Hilary Clinton
5. Pointing fingers
6. Obama
7. Dodging questions, childhood answers.
8. Obama
9. Denying
10. Benghazi
11. RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE
12. Obama

In the end nothing of use to say. The Republicans just love a platform to size themselves up. It's schoolyard bullshit for old people. Not to say the Democrats are perfect with their pandering. But Republican debates just leave you feeling very disappointed. Like, is this the best our country has to offer?

[The Penguin]

..You can't mention my skin color. RACIST!!

You seem a bit obsessed with dark skin.

In a more serious dialogue, I'm sure it could be possible since I'm half black and the Democrats seem to want me to believe that every problem I have in life is because of that fact, and the "fact" that every rich white man is REALLY an evil slave owner out to keep me down.

..Oh wait. The 1850s called. They want their political platform back. A better question is why the party of the "educated" can't see that #Blacklivesmatter is a racist epithet. Reckon Dr. King would agree with me when I say "all" lives matter.

Democrats push a narrative praying they cling to power. News at 11.

Carson shakes that perception, ergo they will run the dirtiest campaign in history to try and cling to their power.

Just watch and wait.

Personally, I'd like a non-batshit insane candidate to start doing well so that when I vote for Jill Stein instead of Hillary next year, my conscience is eased knowing that Ralph Nader-ing Hillary will still leave us with someone semi-responsible in charge. Someone with actual policies. Someone with at least some sort of track record. Someone who understands this is about governing more than it is about defeating stoopid libruls... (scans the debate stage with increasing desperation...)

Kasich is probably the most tolerable of the field, as he has shown the ability to defy his parties lunatics and govern responsibly (basically told the Ohio legislature to fuck off and accepted Medicaid expansion).

So hopefully we see him make a big time play.

Lol Kasich was explaining the other day that he will balance the budget by cutting social security and said baby boomers will just have to get over it. He has a better chance of getting elected in Russia than the US saying shit like that.

Which is unfortunate because, as you say, he is pretty much the only moderate in the GOP field.

[Luxxor]

More people will watch it than the Democratic Debate?

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I meant more in a "gun to my head pick a candidate" kind of way. I mean I'm not gonna Ben Carson it and just say point that metaphorical gun at someone else. I'm not that kind of Hero.

[Stormdash]

Y'know, in a popular sovereignty, one person telling the legislative body to fuck off is about as improper an act of governance as you can make. Just who supposed to be in charge in a representative form of government, again? Are executive elections just the process of intermittently selecting regional or national autocrats?

That is of course not literally what happened. I was being hyperbolic. He used completely legitimate budget mechanisms to accept the expansion while only involving the controlling board and not letting the entire legislature deny health insurance to 270,000 Ohioans. In that sense it was a finger at the legislature because they weren't given the opportunity to ruin it. He acted within Ohio law to get it done. That is what leaders do when their party is hijacked by zealots and ideologues willing to let hundreds of thousands of their citizens suffer just because the plan to help them came from Obama.

[Milchshake]

My prediction; as the perceived front-runner, Ben Carson will receive most of the verbal attacks. Under that pressure he will crack and go even more looney tunes. His poll numbers will drop after the debate.

[Cthulhu 2020]

More people will watch it than the Democratic Debate?

People would rather watch a lot of old white people make idiots of themselves than an actual debate where everyone knows what they're talking about. Those kinds of debates tend to be boring.

[Xeones]

I don't think the debate is going to have any effect on the rankings. I don't think the second one is the reason Carson stormed up. I think the main reason he went so far was because of the Islamophobic comments he made AFTER the debate. The dude has basically no energy I don't think he is capable of making an outstanding stage performance. Trump is probably still going to "win" the debate like he did the previous two and only make any move in standings if he comes out with some kind of new intolerant stance, like bluntly stating support for assault on latin-americans rather than just silently supporting it.

[Jimmy Woods]

Won't be watching, will be watching Baseball, but I'll check twitter.
Predictions:
RIP Donald Trumps presidential run June 16 2015 - October 28 2015 - you will be missed.

Fiorina will lie about her time as CEO as HP.

Christie, Kasich, Huckabee and Paul will make audiences wonder why the fuck are they on that stage.

In the kid table debate apparently George Pataki said it's time to stop denying that climate change is real and man has influenced it. So RIP Pataki campaign, it's a shame someone that doesn't just fall in line with the Koch brother$$$ will be out.

[Paranoid Android]

This debate is all about economics. So I doubt to here very little difference. It will be: No Regulation, Lower taxes for everyone, We don't need to raise minimum wage, Tax cuts for all businesses again a trickle down type for small businesses.

What else?
