Discussion: Ben Carson Causes Traffic Jam Off-Stage At ABC Debate (VIDEO)

Guys, thanks for the running commentary on the debate. I just didn’t have the stomach to watch it. Thanks for the laughs which I hope don’t turn into tears in November. Cheers.

If any of these nutjobs wins the Presidency in this country, we will be headed for a world of hurt. If we thought it was bad under Bush…Bush will look like a cake walk should one of these know-nothing war-mongers gets into the Oval Office. It freaks me out just to think of the possibility. This country will become unrecognizable to most of us, should they get control of the executive, legislative and judicial, all at the same time.

Rrrubio is going on about abortion and why Dems haven’t been asked about it. That’s actually a good question. But I’d also like to know why the Repukes haven’t been asked anything about what they plan on doing about global warming, voting rights, Citizen’s United, and a whole host of other issues which they choose to ignore.

Shameless Reruns? Is that the new Mitt Romney biopic?

Narcoleptic Ben probably just nodded off.

That reminds me how much I used to love watching Meerkat Manor on Animal Planet. I practically knew all their names too at one time. They have their own little tribes too. So cute.

What makes you think Trump tips the washroom attendant?

Embarrassing for ABC, starting with the botched intros. Their tech crew didn’t do a good job - everyone could hear every time Ted Cruz tapped on the podium - and he did a lot of tapping. Moderators seemed poorly prepared with questions. The candidates didn’t help, either :open_mouth:

The audience booed louder when Trump busted them and the RNC - RNC told Trump all of the audience members were donors

Reporting on Carson flubs is just beating a semi-comatose horse at this point. Let Carson slowly, and I mean really slowly, just fade away.
He is yesterday’s great white hope, what-wait, well-you know what I mean.

Rubio is on the hot seat now and the stink is already rising, a few weeks of sautéing and tenderizing him should have him following Carson right down the dead clown walking trail.

The Iowa results were meaningless pretty much, because Cruz is disintegrating rapidly as is Rubio and Trump may be back.
Christie, Kasich and Bush may as well form a travelling clown trio and sell tickets because that is all that they will get from their campaigns.

I totally agree. Also, when I’ve watched the streaming debates on ABC, they always flake out every fifteen minutes or so and I end up missing something. Very unprofessional.

Presumably, it is the jobs of the guys in the back to push them out there, whether they hear their names called or not. Total incompetence by ABC.

There was a guy waving “go” I watched it on SNL Weekend Update. Funny.

He was waiting for the demon to deploy.

Earlier tonight I watched this without sound and thought it was hilarious, but now that I’m seeing it with sound it’s obvious that the female moderator’s voice didn’t project over the applause and she didn’t wait for the applause to stop like her counterpart did, so neither Carson or Trump heard their intro. I get their confusion.

Bendo wants to be the first autistic president, but the rube may beat him to it.
