The Lone Good News About the Upcoming Debate: Gabbard Will Be Back on Stage
NRO ^ | October 4, 2019 | Jim Geraghty

The upcoming twelve-candidate Democratic presidential primary debate is probably going to be another mess, but one highlight will be the return of Tulsi Gabbard to the stage — good news not just for Michael Brendan Dougherty, but for everyone who wants to see an actual debate. In a series of prime-time meetings that have included a lot of repetitive platitudes and all-too-convenient anecdotes about an American everyman that candidates met on the trail, one of the few genuine bits of drama comes from the question of who Gabbard will go after and why.

The Hawaii congresswoman’s debate performances haven’t done much to break her out of the asterisk category, but boy, can she dissect an opponent’s record in a devastating fashion. You could argue that Gabbard more than anyone else triggered the slide of Kamala Harris since the second debate.

Only works if the debate is accompanied by a swimsuit competition.

One thing I like about Gabbard is her willingness to dialogue/meet with those who are demonized by the MSM.

Among them, Trump and Assad.

There’s no “good news” coming out of any of that.

“There’s no “good news” coming out of any of that.”

Tulsi and Trump are the only politicians who question the uniparty’s policy of perpetual war in the Middle East. I thinks it’s good news to have her in the Dem debate raising that issue.

Bernie says he’s going to be there. Wonder if everyone will go easy on him or try to push him back into the hospital.

This is just more Gabbard azz-kissing for no good reason at all. C’mon, she’s a Marxocrat, ferchrissakes! Rule Number One in politics is “All Marxocrats are liars.” So what if she mumbles a few phrases about being anti-war. She likely pushes that view because she hates America. And being a vet doesn’t count anymore. McCain and Mueller were both vets. Anybody that votes for her gets the full Marxocrat package of unfettered abortion, continued affirmative action anti-white discrimination, the unchecked illegal alien invasion, communist economic policies, growth of leviathan government, the elimination of the Constitutional Rule of Law, and the complete destruction of the good ol’ US of A. There is nothing good about Tulsi Gabbard. The very fact that she’s in the Marxocrat camp should be an immediate disqualifier and a red flag that she either doesn’t know what the hell she’s doing or she’s evil at her core. No thanks!

Let’s hope so. On both counts.

She's beautiful on the outside. OK, she stinks to high heaven on the inside, but she sure is pretty.

As far as I’m concerned, she’s the Democrats’ only chance.

My sentiments exactly.

I've heard Tulsi came from a common sense conservative background, but to advance in the ranks of the Democrat party, she has disavowed her past. I've got no use for her.

Now, if she came around and begged forgiveness for what she has said since becoming a Dem and applied for membership in the GOP, I'd be the first to give her a hug and a kiss to welcome her back home.

I’ll be looking forward to her sinking her claws into Lizzy Warren.

As a VP nominee she sets herself up for 2024. Free exposure. I’d prefer a different kind of exposure. She wouldn’t be the VP selection by any others.
