Scarborough: Last Night's Debate 'Disaster' for Democrats

On today's Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough, speaking as someone who unequivocally proclaimed "I want Donald Trump to lose," said that last night's debate was a "disaster" for Democrats.
Scarborough made a four-pronged argument: first, Dems went after each other rather than attacking President Trump. Second and third: the unanimous Dem support for health-care-for-life for illegal immigrants, and for making illegal entry into the US no longer illegal, will lose the Dem candidate several states.
Finally, whereas Kamala Harris scored points with her attack on Joe Biden regarding busing, no Democrat today will actually support busing, moving children, for example, an hour from San Francisco to Oakland. Scarborough also said Biden's performance might have been the "most disturbing" he's seen since Reagan's first 1984 debate.

Here's my take on last night...
- Trump so very evil
- Bernie said the only way anything can get done is to take down Big Tech, Wall Street, Big Banks, Big Pharma, Big Ag, Big Momma, and anything else that's Big. He was the only one on stage ready to Bern them all to the ground. Then you can do stuff.
- Kamela brought out her angry black woman victim prosecutor and took a machete to Biden over Racism. She believes in busing and is ready to desegregate America and will prosecute anyone who gets in her way.
- Biden trotted out a very long list of participation awards and took full credit for them all. By he way, he had fixed the immigration problem before Trump took office. Who knew?
- Buttgrieg came across as calm and well spoken, not the flaming pervert we know that he is. His most well spoken soundbite of the night..."I couldn't get it done."
- Kristen Gillibrand was determined to ignore the moderators and time limits and delivered her well rehearsed speeches with the enthusiasm of a cheerleader. Yay me.
- Marianne Williamson is going to defeat Trump's hate with love.
- Yang is going to pay everyone $1000 if he wins.
- Bennett is going to build up Central America to the point no one wants to come to America anymore. That will fix immigration.
- Who else was on stage?

NBC has spent the last two nights running their own ads trying to convince Democrats that they have a chance. Their main points:

Bidens main problem now is that hes a doddering old fool who looks and acts like hes just a few months away from being committed to an elder-care facility. The idea that he could sleepwalk his way to their nomination was blown up last night.

Biden is the first pol Ive ever scene call a time limit on himself during a debate.
Oops. My timess up. lol
And this is their best shot??

Dems are on their way to a McGovern Mondale rerun....The McGovern analogy is close, but I think Mondale is closer.

Nah, Mondale didn’t lose because he was a radical liberal... He just lost because Reagan was unstoppable.
Trump is going to win by the biggest landslide since Reagan, thats for sure, but the dems have gone off the liberal cliff, just like they did with McGovern.
The McGovern election is more apropos for what the Dems are doing now than Mondale.
To: Conserv
Hes morphing into Matthew Perry(who I like, but has aged horribly).Considering that Commodore Perry has been dead for 161 years, that is not surprising.
Oh wait a minute--

Joe Biden is like Kerensky during the Russian Revolution.
The true Commies in the party are going to clean his clock.

What would be perfect would be the media debate moderator asked each candidate how they felt about Obama’s grand lie. If you like your health plan, you will be able to keep your health plan. Period.
That would make a great popcorn moment.

Democrats tell what they really believe and turn voters off.

Every election seems to have its own dynamic. McGovern's was a massive repudiation of his surrender-at-all-costs "solution" to the Vietnam War. Ordinary folks like me could not stomach the though of a President going to Hanoi and begging on his knees for the release of our POWs. Mondale got wiped out because people saw the contrast between his dour, dull, pessimistic approach and Reagan's unquenchable optimism and personal charisma.
What will it be in 2020? Seems like the 'Rats have two ways to go, neither of which is all that appealing. They can go with a young, untested super-liberal socialist. Or they can go with a strong liberal who has been there, Biden has been in elective government for almost 45 year. Bernie Sanders likely has little experience outraise of elective office.
