Holy crap, TPM is turning into a sweatshop. When does the crew get to rest?

Ya kidding??? They live for this stuff. They can sleep when they’re dead. Political folks - this is what they’ve been waiting for all their lives…

ETA: is this thread dead? The debate is half an hour in and no commentary?

lol seems everybody is just wore out after 4 days of the criminal enterprise show.
I’m watching but I think there is still to many contestants still to get into a real debate of substance.
its all over the place.
when they get down to the final 4, then people will pay more attention.

Who cares about this nonsense? History is made in morning and afternoon.

Today was part of fixing the past and present, tonight is for considering the future.

Too early. Too many voices. Too many plans that will never come to pass.

I’ve seen her type with students.

One of her lightweight answers struck Maddow as so shallow that she ended Gabbard’s answer quite dismissively.

I was hosting our county’s watch party for the debate.

And we had really great turnout! Probably our highest turnout to a single debate watch party all season. (We did have more combined turnout to the first two nights of debates, but we were hosting two different parties in our county)

Unfortunately, everyone was so busy talking with each other, and I was so busy being host, that I think I only heard maybe 5 sentences all night :frowning:
