That clown car post was hilarious. It was good enough to be on the opening monologue of Conan.

Whoever posted this has single handly raised the average IQ of posters on this forum.

How does one get this amazing writing skill ?

Trump got 24 million viewers for the debate? 20 million tuned in to watch a train wreck.

If Carly Fiorina catapults to the top ten, someone will be booted out. Could be Kasich or Paul. If this happens it will be fun to watch Fiorina take on Donald Trump in the next debate.

Fiorina and Rubio led the two discussions. The second one may have had a semblance of a debate a couple of times, but the candidates were too well behaved. Should have put a couple of liberals in there and then it would have looked like an episode of the walking dead, with blood and gore everywhere. Oh yeah!

I also was impressed with Rubio and Florina.

I will add that it is like the exhibition season in football. Long way to go and many more hurdles to over come.

No chance or time to extensively discuss much of anything and other than a few exchanges, not much dialogue between the candidates. BUT NO TIME on this one either.

As it progresses it will become more definitive and detailed, but I agree that based on confidence and supposed grasp of the issues, Rubio and Fiorina stood up.

Hoping further debates will meet this standard for sure.

I am not sure why any of the liberals are making fun. It seems the liberal pundits and the other networks had praise...

"With its big debate night in the can, the good news for Fox is that its usual enemies on the left hate it quite a bit less, at least for the moment.

At CNN, Brian Stelter provided a roundup of the “almost unanimously positive reviews” Fox’s “tough debate questions” generated. Included were a former Obama Administration official, a liberal magazine editor, a public radio host and BuzzFeed’s editor-in-chief. All had nothing but praise:"

There was criticism from some on the right which is to be expected. With that many folks and their followers, it is liking grading umpires in baseball. It all depended on what team you were on. Most of the complaints were very specific in who got passed over, etc.

Great debate night and look forward to more.

A big thank you to FOX for creating a way for all 17 candidates to be heard.
As opposed to the main stream networks that did not even mention the other 7.....for obvious Fiorina reasons!!

I would like to see Carly explain why HP sent their customer service to India and their manufacturing to China while she was CEO.

Why?

When I was in Panama, Dell set up their support at the old military air base.

I think the question is, can she do the job. After eight years of Obama, I think we can pretty much figure that question to be a moot point. Anyone can do the job. Hopefully, the next president will have some leadership skills.

Well, this is from 2010......

"Democrats privately know that free trade and cheap manufacturing abroad result in cheap consumer goods at places like Walmart and Home Depot, which expands the purchasing power of the strapped American consumer. Republicans stress that in the open arena of trade, the more competition, the more pressure on American firms to stay lean and turn out better products at lower costs.

One reason why a Hewlett-Packard, or an Apple or a Microsoft, is so successful is that the skilled engineering, administration, and financing of such global high-profit operations draw on unique American talent and labor, while the often less-skilled fabrication of the resulting consumer goods is in part outsourced to places where labor regulations, wages, and attitudes tend to be very non-American. Would we prefer it the other way around — $100,000-a-year Chinese engineers traveling to San Jose or Gilroy to teach our unskilled workers how to assemble their hot-selling, freshly designed electronic gadgets at the rate of $1 an hour?


Carly Fiorina: Robber Baron, Traitor

I am sure that the party of NAFTA, etc understands but it does not make for good tweets the day after she looked so good

I suspect you are the same poster who posted a supposed quote thrashing at Carly Florina. I really hope you will obey the rules of this forum and tell us where that came from.

Other than thinking it is important to follow rules, I am curious the source of all of this.

Carly Fiorina must have really looked good to have this kind of menial attempt at thrashing her.

Tell us...is this coming from the Clinton campaign....oh wait, they were posting selfies last night the the Kardashians......good choice I suppose...hanging with the middle class !!!

This poster and two others have been the source of much laughter at times. They know very little about current events but they can sure make the wisea$$ cracks with the best of them.

But, a fool is supposed to make you laugh, right ?

Agree with your post........right to the very end. Good one!

Anyway, I would vote hands down for Fiorina as the stand-out in the first debate, and if I had to pick just one in the second it would be Rubio. When he's focused and on point he can really deliver a message. For a young guy, he comes across very wise and confident. His one liner about the Dems not even being able to come up with one candidate was great.......and apparently oh so true!!

Your posts prove you are definitely a fool. Now, get back down your troll hole and do not come out again. You are not relevant.

Same guy....same quote....."you are not relevant"

Someday write yourself some new lines before your shift at trolling.
