So, two old white men and an old white woman who thinks she's an Indian. So much for liberals diversity...

She's dropped the Indian claim; she's not a member of a tribe.

Drinking game. Every time someone answers the question asked, have a drink. Everyone will be sober at the end of this debate.

That's the feeling I'm getting as well, with Booker as VP.

He just used "trans" and "lynching" in the same sentence and isn't being cut off as aggressively as what-his-face on far stage right that they've enthusiastically shut down at every turn.

They just don't give as much of a damn about the others.

On the issue of civil rights; Cory Booker “Don’t forget about black trans gender people”
It keeps getting better by the second.
LOL

The Booker man has some strikin’ blue eyes.

Do you want us to see if we can arrange a date for you?

Well, Tim Ryan just shit his bid and Tulsi Gabbard just picked it up and brushed his teeth with it.

His goldfish gasping just sunk him.

Mark it, Dude.

Wait until Warren starts speaking Cherokee.

Must be the blue suit that brings em out. I was hoping he’d set a dollar amount for reparations for blacks.

In English, please.

Maybe Elizabeth is French.

Elizabeth Warren's Pow Wow Chow 'Cherokee' recipes were word for word COPIES of famous FRENCH chef's techniques

He said something about having to maintain wars and Gabbard responded saying that her brothers and sisters in arms who died in Iraq and Afghanistan would disagree. It was a split screen and his reaction was a gaping, gasping mouth, and more than once. Looked like he was sucking for air. I'd like to do better than that on the details, but it was my fleeting impression while I was also sidelined with some family stuff.

When the whole thing is available, I'll update this post with a timestamped video link. That bit was worth a see at the very least. It was absolutely not a strong moment for him.

I saw him go slackjaw also.

Clean air to breath and clean water to drink.

Naw, I am voting for smog and muddy water.
All true conservatives love them some smog. Hmmm Good.

I think we can call this the “night of the also rans”. Nobody on that stage has a chance. I was completely unimpressed, as expected.

Tomorrow night should be even more entertaining.

I'm guessing, based on everything I saw, that Warren, Booker, and Beto will wind up in later debates. How far? Who knows.

Klobuchar and Castro seemed to bring up the rear.

But yeah, this was the warm-up act. Tomorrow is the main event.

Any feedback on how Gabbard did? She's at least somewhat rational at times on some issues. As such she probably got shut down tonight.

It was all "I'm a veteran," which, don't get me wrong, I'm not shitting on in any way. But no, I didn't see anyone try to engage her or shut her down. They seem to want to ignore her.

As I mentioned a few posts above, she totally shut down Tim Ryan. When the footage is available, I'll be posting it. She basically sunk his bid with her rebuttal to his "we need to stay engaged" remark. He looked like someone slapped him with a 2x4. Whatever your feelings on it, he was sent visibly reeling and looked like a wuss.

*Edit - I feel like the news networks want Warren to make it to the finish line, but now after a bit of reflection, it may be the case that Gabbard makes it further into the race than Wannasquaw.
