CNN anchor Jake Tapper and chief political correspondent Dana Bash will moderate a Town Hall Debate with Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and Texas Senator Ted Cruz on the future of Obamacare at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 7.
President Donald Trump has made repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act one of his top priorities while Congressional Democrats are opposed. Sanders, an opponent of repealing Obamacare, and Cruz, a supporter of the President’s healthcare agenda, will join Tapper and Bash to debate the fate of former President Barack Obama's signature legislation and the GOP’s approach to healthcare....

This ought to be good!
In 20 years, Ted will be younger than Donald is now — and someone has to succeed him in 2024.
Ted will eat Bernie for breakfast.
Amen. Sanders doesn’t stand a chance against Cruz.
Say what you want about Cruz, but the man is one hell of a debater.
This is stupid. Aside from Never Trumpers & the Bern-outs, who would watch it? Fixed Upper on HGTV will probably have better ratings.
** Bernie and the Canadian were losers in the election. Who cares what these guys think?
They each have one vote in the Senate. They each had one vote during the Obama administration. **
Exactly, bears repeating:
Bernie and the Canadian were losers in the election. Who cares what these guys think?
They each have one vote in the Senate. They each had one vote during the Obama administration.
I hate to burst peoples bubble but I think that Bernie will do better than people think. He may win. Ted did not acquit himself very well in the debates during the primary. Just my honest opinion.
>OK, Cruz has been somewhat redeeming himself lately, but what is this? Setting himself up to run against President Trump in 2020?
2024. No one is going to take a shot against Trump in 2020.
I’d watch this. I enjoy watching socialists suffer.
Is that why he beat everybody but Don Trump and would be president right now if Trump hadn’t entered the race?
It wasn’t due to his debate performance but in spite of it in my opinion. He did well because he was seen as a anti-washington anti-establishment conservative in a sea of rinos. Your assumption that he would have won the presidency is debateable. I don’t think he would’ve broken through the blue wall.
Cruz was using Cambridge Analytica, the same company later used by Team Trump. A method is a method.

You can never know for sure what would’ve happened. Trump did fool them as he appeared to be pretty low tech.
Seems like a lot of effort, even if both CNN viewers are won over.
I’m a Vermonter. I am deeply ashamed my state elected a Marxist from NYC to the US Senate. He never held a regular job until he was elected mayor of Burlington. I can’t stand to look at him or listen to him. Having said that, Sanders will not debate Cruz. He will instead make points that will excite his radical base while sounding good to the low information voter. The reason Bernie has never changed his rant since he was elected mayor in 1981 is because he is a pure Marxist ideologue. He has never done anything in his life except blow hot air. He will simply keep saying in so many words that the billionaires are the root of all problems in the USA, including US health care. Cruz should point out some of what Sanders has said about health care in Cuba. Cruz should compare the reality of Cuban medical care with some of Sanders’ absurd statements, and how Sanders would like to bring that level of mediocre health care to America.
I am watching it and Cruz is good. Bernie is a jerk!
I’m watching Cspan..
