Teflon Don!

Amazing, someone who lies, repeatedly, on national television TO the people she wants to vote for her, is perceived as the winner.
Congratulation national media, your ability to ferret out the truth and to inform the public continues unabated.

Trump is handing America the G.O.P. in all its ugliness on a silver platter.
It literally doesn’t get any more obvious than this.

The pundits had decided even before the debate that Fiorina’s big “break out” was going to be the story. And, lo and behold, they say it is.
We have pundits falling all over themselves now to predict that she’ll sweep to the nomination as soon as Trump collapses.
Except that they said exactly the same about Rubio after the last debate.
And Fiorina is a complete joke whose “winning” claims and actual record would not withstand the most basic scrutiny, let alone the rigors of being a perceived front-runner.

Ooh! This general election will be so much fun. Whoever gets the GOP nomination will have Goldwater’s slogan tattooed on his/her forehead:
“Moderation in defense of liberty is no virtue. (Lunatic) extremism in defense of liberty is no vice.”

Would that platter be silver-plated, sterling silver or 99.9999 silver? Or is it that fake shit made in China?
(Not beating up on the Chinese, as you can only make as good a quality of a product as the materials with which you are supplied to make said product. Hence, if you’re supplied crappy materials, the final product will be … crappy).

“Sixty-nine percent identified as Republicans.” I simply cannot believe that anyone other than a hard-core tea-party troglodyte would even consider any of those 3 clowns.

It’s so fitting that the person that won the republican debate spewed the most BS…

Jeb Bush must be pulling his hair out with these results. Of course he’s a total loser too, but a different brand altogether. He now sees that NOTHING he’s ever done matters for anything. This includes throwing the entire Presidential election to his idiotic brother. I guess he thought that was supposed to help?

Chuck Todd, speaking on behalf of the Village, declared Jeb! the winner on Larry O’Donnell’s show, but I guess he was wrong. So let’s give him 5 extra hours a week to be wrong . . .

TOP IMAM: MUSLIM MIGRANTS SHOULD BREED WITH EUROPEANS TO “CONQUER THEIR COUNTRIES”
“They have lost their fertility!”
“Throughout Europe, all the hearts are enthused with hatred toward Muslims. They wish that we were dead, but they have lost their fertility, so they look for fertility in our midst,” he added.
“We will give them fertility! We will breed children with them, because we shall conquer their countries!”
Ayed stated that “whether you like it or not,” Americans, Italians, Germans and the French will be forced to take the “refugees”.
“We shall soon collect them in the name of the coming Caliphate. We will say to you: these are our sons. Send them, or we will send our armies to you,” concluded Ayed.*

Wait wait wait, I heard from knowledgeable pundits that Trump was weak in the debate and it would sink him.
Oh wait, now I hear that Trump shrugged off anti-Muslim hate speech, and THIS will sink him.
Waii…t I’m getting a vision of 3 days in the future, when Trump will call all single mothers “crack whores”. THAT will sink him!
Yeah, this Trump fad is as good as over. Back to the REASONABLE candidates…

The truth is that nobody much cares who wins a political debate; least of all Republicans. Those who actually pay attention to what’s said in a debate usually are the people who’ve already picked who they’re supporting. The only exception to this is when a candidate screws up so badly in a debate it ends up torpedoing his whole campaign (Oops!).
Otherwise, most political debates are of little significance beyond their entertainment value. Of the 24 million Americans who tuned in to the Republican debate, probably about 23 million were watching solely to see what “the Donald” was going to say.

Gov. Walker is right, this present media hype over Fiorina was pre-planned and paid for by JEB’s backers who are getting nervous over JEB’s apparent death spiral and are presently preparing Plan-B.

Just about every pundit on Hardball before the debate declared that Fiorina would be the big star of the debate, and that’s exactly what they said after the debate-that Fiorina was the big star of the debate. As long as she didn’t pull down her skirt and take a poop on the stage, the media was always going to name her the winner because she was guaranteed to get a question about Trump insulting her looks and she was guaranteed to have practiced her answer to perfection. It’s like getting all the questions a week in advanced for a pop quiz, and then getting praised for getting an A+.

Interesting takes by the five-thirty-eight crew on betting odds at this point 14 months from the election. Bush is still the betting favorite, his poll standing notwithstanding.
