Hola! I’m just trying to get things set up so that I can type and watch at the same time. I have CNN streaming now.

Hey Kes! Great!
AdLib 2 days ago
Just putting up the post to get the word out!
AdLib 2 days ago
Sounds good. I guess the Kids Table will go first?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Yep, they’re going right now!
AdLib 2 days ago
Oh yuck. The dreadful Ana Navaro is on the panel. The Latina version of Megyn Kelly/
kesmarn
2 days ago
Can you believe how dumb these pundits are, suggesting it would be better to be in the kid’s table debate than the main one! Wow!
AdLib 2 days ago
Gotta sell that ad time — starting at 6 PM EST.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Actually, starting up in 90 seconds, the kid’s debate that is!
AdLib 2 days ago
I wondered how long the blither (or blitzer) was going to go on! BBC is doing their analysis right now. “Pantomime Politics” they’ve dubbed it.
kesmarn
2 days ago
It is going to be a substance free mud fight, from the sounds of it. How fun, the GOP’s stock value should crash 10 minutes in.
AdLib 2 days ago
Gotta love the sport/showbiz blend as far as presentation goes…
kesmarn
2 days ago
Bear with me here. Without cable I have to stream from CNN and then flip back and forth to comment. I’ll be even slower than usual!
kesmarn
2 days ago
No kidding! CNN is so shallow, they just love their tech! BTW, you can always resize the chat and CNN browser windows so you can see both at the same time.
AdLib 2 days ago
Really? The national anthem before a debate???
AdLib 2 days ago
Is the CNN window available on the Planet now? I opened the tabs earlier… Lemme check…
kesmarn
2 days ago
Yeah. The national anthem — that’s a new one. Will there be a public signing of loyalty oaths too?
kesmarn
2 days ago
CNN doesn’t allow sites to embed live broadcasts, unfortunately.
AdLib 2 days ago
Argh… one of the few times I wish I had cable. I think we need a law against calling on a candidate’s disabled or Down Syndrome children to score points.
kesmarn
2 days ago
But-but-but…what else would they debate about?
AdLib 2 days ago
“A war on trans-fats and a truce with Iran…”? There’s one to engrave on a Jindal monument…
kesmarn
2 days ago
“I am Pro-Fat!”
AdLib 2 days ago
“Cholesterol for the masses!”
kesmarn
2 days ago
Honesty points for Miss Lindsey for just coming right out (?!?!) with it and saying there’s going to be a massive ground war in the ME from Day One.
kesmarn
2 days ago
True but you could have heard a pin drop.
AdLib 2 days ago
Right. Where are the “booooos”? Oh that’s right. This is the GOP. They like war.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Is it just me, or is Santorum making absolutely no sense whatsoever…?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Wages are flat-lined because of IMMIGRANTS?? The GOP opposing any increase in the minimum wage has nothing to do with that?
kesmarn
2 days ago
I think Jindal is competing with Santorum for who can talk the most without making any sense.
AdLib 2 days ago
whew… It’s not just me… !
kesmarn
2 days ago
They sure work so hard to avoid answering ANY question!
AdLib 2 days ago
Right! They haven’t gotten a straight answer from one of them yet.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Cowards, all of them.
AdLib 2 days ago
They’re really overmanaging this debate. Only four candidates, they can give them more time.
AdLib 2 days ago
This is gonna be a loooooong two hours… Sound bites and nothing but.
kesmarn
2 days ago
True.
AdLib 2 days ago
Well, Lindsey finally got a punch in there. “Hispanics are Americans.” But that won’t fly with the base. Especially the Trump base.
kesmarn
2 days ago
OK. The Strom Thurmond line was pretty funny.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Wonder what Bobby plans to do with Putin in the process of “replacing Assad”?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Lindsay seems to be a single-issue guy. ISIL is the only thing he’s gonna talk about. They could ask him about the California fires and it would end up being ISIL/Obama’s fault.
kesmarn
2 days ago
I like how he went after Santorum. Lots more of that in the big debate.
AdLib 2 days ago
Wow, they’re so brave claiming they can kill all of ISIS by just sending in our military.
AdLib 2 days ago
Lindsay wants to invade Syria and fight on a second front in Iraq! And cut taxes I suppose so paid for by???
AdLib 2 days ago
I heard on NPR that CNN has instructed the mods to encourage the Big Kids debaters to go after each other personally.
kesmarn
2 days ago
How does that not end up looking like professional wrestling?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Yes, heard that too. How immature is that? That’s what a debate is, the same thing as a slap fight?
AdLib 2 days ago
Exactly!
AdLib 2 days ago
Hah! Good question too on who pays for Miss Lindsey’s war. I know. Let’s borrow more from China and then blame the debt on the next Dem to be elected!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Jindal’s answer to prejudice against Muslims is…that the real prejudice is against Christians. Idiot.
AdLib 2 days ago
Lindsay just said that prejudice against Muslims is justified.
AdLib 2 days ago
They don’t mention that the crazy-ass mayor of Irving, TX — with her hysteria about Sharia Law — created the perfect environment for a 14 year old kid to be arrested for bringing a clock to school.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Oops…phone call…
kesmarn
2 days ago
Such a blatant racist mindset…gets lots of applause. “Who here hates brown people like me? Black people? Gays? Alright!”
AdLib 2 days ago
Santorum says the SCOTUS decisions are unconstitutional when he doesn’t agree with them.
AdLib 2 days ago
Jindal is attacking everyone and talking crazy, fire all Congresspeople and don’t even let them stay in DC. Huh?
AdLib 2 days ago
Now I’m back! Ohhhh…looks like I missed some good stuff too!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Yep, Lindsay is about to break into tears after defending himself for saying in the past that Hillary was a good SoS. Whew!
AdLib 2 days ago
Lindsey’s on fire in the comedy department tonight. If he weren’t such a total ass, he might be almost likable.
kesmarn
2 days ago
“More drinking in the WH!” That’s a campaign slogan for the ages.
kesmarn
2 days ago
He has dropped the best jokes but with a wavering, nervous voice. Really, we want that nervous Nellie in the WH when a disaster strikes?
AdLib 2 days ago
I know! It’s like hearing stand up comedy from Don Knotts!
kesmarn
2 days ago
President Barney!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Heh! So true!!!
AdLib 2 days ago
Except Don Knotts was so much more sane.
kesmarn
2 days ago
“President Graham, there’s been a terrorist attack on the U.S.!” 
AdLib 2 days ago
“You may now remove the bullet from your pocket!!!”
kesmarn
2 days ago
Great, the unworkable tax plans of trickle down from Santorum. What planet do they live on?
AdLib 2 days ago
Oh boy! Rick’s promising more money for mega-corporations! That’s going to fix everything!
kesmarn
2 days ago
BENGHAZI!! Graham…. LMAO
Harleigh
2 days ago
Hey, Harleigh! Whaddya think so far?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Yep, Graham was so obvious when he pulled the Benghazi chord. And the seals flapped their flippers.
AdLib 2 days ago
Hey Harleigh!
AdLib 2 days ago
War. Easy credit for everyone. Trickle down economics. Why not just run Dubya again? That’s his platform.
kesmarn
2 days ago
hey guys
Harleigh
2 days ago
Graham makes no sense. Raising Min Wage would make it too hard for small business…but he wants to see more businesses grow that offer more or make existing businesses pay more. He makes no sense.
AdLib 2 days ago
lower taxes on rich and corps… what klowns.
Harleigh
2 days ago
90% of Americans are right, buddy. You guys DON’T care. First true thing of the evening.
kesmarn
2 days ago
later his staff will explain he mis-spoke and you mis-heard Kes
Harleigh
2 days ago
Kes – Lindsay praised Bush for his funding antiAIDS in Africa, only thing Bush can legitimately be praised for. Audience relieved to have 1 reason to applaud W.
AdLib 2 days ago
D’you suppose they’ll have Dubya prominently featured as a speaker at the next GOP convention, AdLib? LOL!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Santorum and the other Repubs love saying how much they need to have workers, Latinos, women supporting them…but they want them to support them despite their bigoted policies that they won’t change to attract them.
AdLib 2 days ago
yeah kes along with josh duggar
Harleigh
2 days ago
Right, Harleigh… That was just the static in my Bel-Tones I heard. (The fact that I don’t have Bel-Tones makes no difference.)
kesmarn
2 days ago
Hahaha! And Kim Davis!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Lindsay thinks he scares Iran? He doesn’t even scare his pussycat.
AdLib 2 days ago
They’re probably collapsing in laughter in Tehran right about now.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Lindsay has said multiple times, “They’re coming here!” So blatantly pushing the panic button to attract those terrified Repubs.
AdLib 2 days ago
Right. Someone put a 1952 brain in that pretty little head…
kesmarn
2 days ago
Kes – Yep, I can imagine them throwing popcorn at the tv, “Oh, we’re so scared of you!”
AdLib 2 days ago
ms lindsey set off their gaydar for sure. war war war be afraid! sounds like a replay 2002
Harleigh
2 days ago
LOL! The popcorn tossing, mocking imams is just too funny as an image!
kesmarn

memo to santorum…. 12 years ago iran had zero centrifuges. fuckin liar.
Harleigh
2 days ago
Rick acts like the Christian fundie wackos don’t believe the same thing! END TIMES!
kesmarn
2 days ago
You saw Cheney caught lying about blaming Iran’s centrifuges being built on Obama’s watch?
AdLib 2 days ago
I did! The one time Chris Wallace actually got it right!
kesmarn
2 days ago
some mormons believe it again lol. the world ended almost every year of my life. lol
Harleigh
2 days ago
LOL! Were you raised Mormon. Harl?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Putin wouldn’t be in Ukraine if Reagan was President? Putin would be afraid of a dead President?
AdLib 2 days ago
Lindsay would go to war against Russia!
AdLib 2 days ago
I wonder how ISIS is going to get here…? Book passage on Carnival Cruises? Infiltrate Canada and enter via the Detroit casinos?
kesmarn
2 days ago
Putin fears Zombie Reagan!!
kesmarn
2 days ago
“Ugh! Zombie Reagan smash!”
AdLib 2 days ago
“The goal is to get Obama out of there”?? His second term will — unfortunately — end no matter what you do, Miss Lindsey.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Heh! You nailed him, Kes!
AdLib 2 days ago
Jindal doesn’t understand that a President can veto a bill!
AdLib 2 days ago
There’s so much that Bobby doesn’t understand…
kesmarn
2 days ago
A grown man named Bobby starts with a disadvantage.
AdLib 2 days ago
Maybe he should have stuck with Piyush? (Even if it does sound like an expression of total exasperation.) “Oy…piyush!!”
kesmarn
2 days ago
Well…I don’t think Trump has much to worry about with this lot.
kesmarn
2 days ago
“Piyush!” is the sound my toilet makes.
AdLib 2 days ago
LOL! Or maybe a sea lion with indigestion…?
kesmarn
2 days ago
During the break, I actually forgot the same of the guy on the far left. That’s how bad it is.
kesmarn
2 days ago
So Jindal just proposed ending the Republican party if they don’t shut down government over Planned Parenthood funding. First time I supported any of his policies. Pretty pathetic though, don’t you think? Makes the GOP sound like it is truly falling apart when their own candidates are suggesting it.
AdLib 2 days ago
Pataki?
AdLib 2 days ago
That’s it! 
kesmarn
2 days ago
No wonder he’s at 0% in the polls.
AdLib 2 days ago
Oops… that was supposed to be “name” not “same” but you figured it out anyway.
kesmarn
2 days ago
I know.
AdLib 2 days ago
And you’re right. I can totally get behind Jindal’s proposal to end the GOP. That’s brilliant.
kesmarn
2 days ago
They seem to be trying to outdo each other in wackiness. “Hey! It worked for Trump!”
kesmarn
2 days ago
My review: Pataki has no charisma and too moderate for Repub. Santorum is trying way too hard, comes off as not quite an adult. Jindal is frothing and desperate. Graham is peeing in his pants. Not one of them will move up IMO.
AdLib 2 days ago
“Cartoon Network” sums it up, Lindsey — the whole party.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Non-Adult Swim.
AdLib 2 days ago
I agree. None of them benefited from this evening.
kesmarn
2 days ago
And everyone peeing in the pool.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Jindal said Obama is a socialist? Aw, not a “commie”?
AdLib 2 days ago
Right Bobby, you’ve been so successful, you have a 30% approval rating and your state is facing a massive deficit. Well done, Bobby!
AdLib 2 days ago
Well, Bernie ought to be an improvement then! I mean, if we’ve already had a real Socialist and the stock market doubled!!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Kes – People peed in their gene pool.
AdLib 2 days ago
That seems to happen a lot in the South.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Graham’s going to make my family safe again! Thank goodness, so afraid of ISIS coming in and beheading them this weekend.
AdLib 2 days ago
Seeing the crowd leaving I notice there seem to be no — zero — people of color…
kesmarn
2 days ago
Last weekend I went to our 15th Annual International Festival at the mosque here. You wouldn’t believe how many sabers I had to dodge to get in line for my falafel. It was terrifying.
kesmarn
2 days ago
So strange! Latinos love Trump!
AdLib 2 days ago
That’s what he keeps telling us.
kesmarn

ad lindsey can defeat ISIL by putting 10,000 boots on the ground and they will also defeat Assad in Syria and Iran. wowee
Harleigh

Hi gimme a chance to catch up to ya guys
sillylittleme

What an absolute idiot on CNN, thinks Arnold winning the governorship out here is akin to Trump having a shot at winning. There were like 40 candidates in the election, Arnold only got a small minority of votes to win, based on name recognition only. Only 2 candidates running for President in the GE, not similar.
AdLib 2 days ago
I always wondered, who does Wolf actually Blitz?
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
Well, as long as there are no American feet in those boots, Harleigh, I’m cool with that plan.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Hey Homie. I think all those boots should be filled by republican voters.
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
Hey KT! Wolf Blitzers all over his shoes.
AdLib 2 days ago
Homie, I don’t think Wolf dashes, dances or prances, so maybe yes…
kesmarn
2 days ago
Eeeeew!
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
And I like your idea about GOP voters in those boots. Let’s start with Cheney and Dubya first.
kesmarn
2 days ago
Hey, so Lindsay is still blaming Iraq on PBO
sillylittleme
2 days ago
Well the duggars and duck dynasty and nugent will be in those boots when I’m elected!
Harleigh
2 days ago
I do think this main debate is going to be amazing, the personal attacks against each other and the urge to say something extreme should be the focus.
AdLib 2 days ago
Yea, lets send them out of the US so they can be arressted for war crimes.
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
I vote for Harleigh! While you’re at H, free the weed.
KillgoreTrout

Harleigh for Prez.
kesmarn

SLM he forgots to mention Bush negotiated away merican immunity and they would have all been hung like nazis
Harleigh

I did like Jindal’s idea about citizen representatives with per diems. I think we could use the buildings on K Street to house them.
sillylittleme

Harleigh – how’s the weather or was that a joke earlier…
sillylittleme
2 days ago
Hey, SLM! I was so “rapt” I didn’t say Hi when you entered!
kesmarn
2 days ago
Harleigh, you can use Hillary’s “H” logo when she’s done with it! Which could be soon!
AdLib 2 days ago
Hey Kes hugs and kisses in person
sillylittleme
2 days ago
LOL Homie.
KillgoreTrout

Harleigh – you should move the arrow so it points up…

Harleigh
2 days ago
Murph – you are so brave. Don’t tell them that the Donald isn’t running a real campaign…
sillylittleme
2 days ago
slm – I think that’s part of Jindal’s plan to destroy Congress. He said that they shouldn’t even spend much time in DC either. Congress hardly is in town and works as it is, Jindal would shut it down.
AdLib 2 days ago
murph, a better question would be, why do you go?
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
Ad – he’s think 1776, I’m thinking a bit differently

MurphTheSurf3

shit is also a substance.
KillgoreTrout

I think Trump is going to play the calm counterpuncher and the victim when all are attacking him…which will only build his support.

CNN is so blind, they think Lindsay Graham did well, he was shaking and on the verge of tears throughout.
AdLib 2 days ago
Hell, make them roll ME a fatty!

Very true Murph.
KillgoreTrout

Jeb! Looks scared! Boo!
AdLib 2 days ago
I always find this setting with Air Force One in the background presumptuous.
MurphTheSurf3

Where is Jeb’s exclamation point?
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
Ad – he should be, he is getting lots of flak from the establishment
sillylittleme
2 days ago
BTW, it’s a 3 hour debate, CNN is milking this for all they can! Trump said the same thing!
AdLib 2 days ago
Anyone else getting commercials yet?
sillylittleme
2 days ago
Very presumtuous. Wishful thinking?
KillgoreTrout
2 days ago
Murph – Agreed, just lends more of the phoniness to the debate.
AdLib 2 days ago
I am hearing that the crowd is an “establishment” crowd..is it.

So true but he’s spouting all the BS RWs love. Agree though, he is unlikeable because of the canned speaking.
AdLib 2 days ago
got a radio stream. who’s speaking now? Sounds very canned

Jeb is a liar….he is smart enough to know the truth…..so when he says crap like this he knows he is distorting reality.

Oh, it was, Ad. I hope I can keep it down! LOL! Are the nerds still going at it?

Ad…no….Kasich and Paul impressed me but that probably means they did not impress anyone else….hey my friends are still here….let me ask them for their verdict…

Just wrapping up now. BTW, Christie is too afraid of Iran’s leaders to see them in person. Coward!

K-Sick is a sly one, and will most likely have gained some points tonight, at least for those who don’t know much about him.

There was a “best?”

KT – I don’t think so. Whose voters would move to Kasich? Not Trump’s, Carson’s or Fiorina’s.
AdLib 2 days ago
CNN/Salem claiming Fiorina won! Anyone agree?

I don’t know. It’s a long way to November 2016.

Just a fact, the core Repub voters are chauvinistic, Fiorina isn’t going to be a preferable alternative to Trump or Carson, I don’t think.
AdLib 2 days ago
Back…..generally they were not all that happy with Trump BUT they say it is because the questions were aiming to bring him down and that the rest jumped on. Carson…no positive impression. Fiorina….too hard, too sharp. Paul is a smart ass. Cruz impressed them. Huckabee blah. Christie is from the Left Coast. Kasich…who? That’s who they mentioned.

The GOP will not elect a woman or a black man, I don’t care what the polls are saying now. They would never do it.

PPO – I wouldn’t say she won, she solidified herself but she’s not going to skyrocket in the polls from where she is, I don’t think.

she’s basically a female Romney.

Murph – Cool, appreciate it! Sounds very much on the money as a sample of other Trump voters. I don’t see others abandoning him either for Fiorina or Carson. Nowhere else for those voters to go.
AdLib 2 days ago
The TrumpWatchers at the VFW…..generally they were not all that happy with Trump BUT they say it is because the questions were aiming to bring him down and that the rest jumped on. Carson…no positive impression. Fiorina….too hard, too sharp. Paul is a smart ass. Cruz impressed them. Huckabee blah. Christie is from the Left Coast. Kasich…who? That’s who they mentioned.
