The first Democratic debate won’t take place until October 13th, more than two months from now.

That will give Bernie Sanders enough time to give his usual heavily attended, rousing speeches to many more enthusiastic crowds.

It will also give the other Democratic candidates, probably including Joe Biden, enough time to attract more support at the expense of Hillary.

Which means that by October 13th, Bernie Sanders will probably be leading in the polls, at least in his neighboring state of New Hampshire, and probably many other states if Joe Biden’s candidacy gets off to a decent start and Hillary’s poll numbers continue to deteriorate at their present rate.

You mean...like they did on Thursday?

Yeah, but those Fox News whelps could still learn a lot from the vast storehouse of accumulated knowledge at the leftist media, propaganda outlets.

I’d say more like getting a spinal tap with a rusty cork screw or getting brain surgury with a sledhe hammer and with no anesthetic.

It really could become more competitive than most expect. I hope so because if the Dim primaries are competitive there will be much less possibility of Dims making mischief by crossing over in states with open primaries.

True, true. Chris is certainly not his father Mike.

That was no debate. It was a media assassination. It was fox doing gope work. If the party had been interested in an even debate they would have ensured there would be no hatchet job.

I agree completely. Fox purged some portion of its viewers with that planned ambush of Trump and the minimizing of Cruz and their general approach to the debate. It will cost them part of their audience. Some losses and maybe a few gains from the left.

“The first question is for Mrs Clinton: Do you prefer the writings of Marx or Engels?”

“The second question goes to Mr. Sanders: who set the better example for progressive leadership — Lenin, Stalin, or Mao?”

“Back to Mrs. Clinton: The Soviet Union murdered over fifty million people. Was that a sufficient number to create the ‘New Man’?”

“Our final question is for Mr. Sanders: Would you build a wall along the Mexican border to keep Mexicans out or keep Americans in?”

Boxer briefs are an improvement. Just tried them this year. I wouldn't dare to even guess about the duct tape and WD40, Lol.

Questions that will be asked of Hillary: 1) How do you like being a grandmother?; 2) What’s your favorite color?; 3) Do you like mac & cheese?; ...

But Hillary is the anointed queen! Why bother with the debate?

Also Bernie Sanders is a Socialist, so he shouldn’t be there.

Fox will host no Democrat debates.

How many Republican debates will MSNBC get?

The way things are going for Hillary, the race might become tighter than anyone expected. And she could begin to look culpable in some of her looming legal problems.

So...none. Why not just say so?

And I see that the February one is also on Telemundo. I wonder if they'll cancel if Trump is still in the race?
