Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) will go to battle next week in a debate over the future of ObamaCare.
Sanders and Cruz, who both ran for their party's nomination in the 2016 presidential race, will square off in a debate airing on CNN next Tuesday, Feb. 7, at 9 p.m.
The debate will be moderated by CNNs Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. The debate comes as Republicans in Congress craft a plan to repeal and replace former President Obamas signature healthcare law. A promo for the debate aired during CNN's town hall with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), and news quickly spread on social media.
I've wanted a Ted Cruz / Bernie Sanders debate for over a year now. https://t.co/zkP52IUcCu

Urging everyone to skip this live, kill their ratings. Watch highlights on youtube
And even IF CNN gives Bernie the questions ahead of time . . . like they did with Hillary during the election . . . Cruz will literally mop the floor with Bernie. Bring on the popcorn.
Debate? We need no stinkin CNN debate. We control Congress and the White House. This is rope a dope.
Nice. I’ll watch this.
The debate will be moderated by CNNs Jake Tapper and Dana Bash.
...
Does anybody expect them to be fair?
Why does any self respecting Conservative go in CNN anymore? They aren’t just skewed, aren’t just tinged with a liberal bias - they support the Marxist overthrow of the constitutionally elected leader lf the Republic.
They are a terrorist organisation . They need to be starved of the oxygen of publicity.
What is there to debate?
The “debate” will be one Republican vs. three Democrats (Sanders, Tapper and Bash).
I am not rich however I am one of the many who are forced to pay a lot for terrible insurance so that someone else can get theirs for free.

*************************************
Cruz is attempting to rehabilitate his image.
Everything Ted Cruz does is in furtherance of his ambition to usurp the Presidency.
Not a fair fight. Cruz will make a fool of this....fool.
Congress and the Senate continue to play kabuki theater, to pander to the dumbest in the land, but Trump, now he plays in a whole different league, he refuses to play in the mud with the pigs and that really angers the oinkers.
I’ll take Cruz and lay the points.
Who would I like to see lose more? Bernie, Ted, or CNN?
I don’t intend to see it at all.
He’ll do it without the support of those of us who know what natural born citizen means.
Based on the stunt by CNN’s producer today, Cruz should cancel and tell CNN to F themselves.
If you want to drive yourself insane, it’s ok.
