The contrast between the recent Democratic debate and the
Republican debate going on right now couldn't be more revealing.

Rubio is a joke. Not sure he even shaves yet.
Christie is struggling to remain viable by shooting his mouth off.
Cruz is trying to scare the **** out of everyone.
Trump just keep bragging about the company he built.
Carson ? Not exactly sure why he's even there.
Jeb and Kashich are probably the most sane but neither are
going anywhere.

The moderators screwed up the introductions. Then they completely
forgot about Kasich.

The moderators questions are speeches. They take more time
asking a question than the candidate has time to answer.
Rachel and Chuck Todd did an outstanding job in contrast at
the Democratic debate.

Anyway, the Democratic debate was how it's supposed to be done.
The moderators shut their mouths and allowed Hillary and Bernie
to go at it. They did, but maintained a professional respect for
each other.





I was planning to watch it...fortunately, I recorded it because I fell
asleep before it got to far. So I fast forwarded to find the highlights.
The only interesting part was when Jeb nailed Trump on eminent domain
responded like the asshole he is.

Like you, I don't know why Carson is there.
