POL 2/25: Another Dem Debate Night (SC)

10:07 PM: Biden’s people all saying he won the debate.

Looks like the debate is over after King and O’Donnell come back to tell the viewers the debate is over. What a genius idea to put two people who had chemistry issues on the morning show to moderate one of the most important debates of the cycle.

Looks like we're done. Thanks for the fun with my TB2K family tonight. These communist debates are almost better than watching reruns of the Benny Hill show! (Except Benny Hill had lots of cute females on his show. This one was lacking in the eye candy department but overflowing in the need eye bleach department).

Man I loved Benny Hill

I don't see how this debate changed the dynamics. Someone gave Joe the good stuff in hopes he ekes out a win in SC. Did it blunt Bernie's trajectory? I don't think it did.

It may be the last debate with this many on stage. I think there's one in March and one in April, but I see Super Tuesday thinning the herd dramatically...

Except... it was Uighers!

9:30 PM Biden says Xi is a “thug who doesn’t have a democratic bone in his body”
and has a million Uighurs in concentration camps.

LOL! I'd forgotten my private chuckle hearing audio about the "wiggers" in concentration camps in China.

So Biden never at any time mentioned running for SENATOR nor asked everyone to vote for "The Other Biden"...???

Biden accidentally tells South Carolina crowd he's a Dem candidate 'for the United States Senate'

(can't seem to get the above link to show the picture, so here's a You Tube, from a BLACK CONSERVATIVE RADIO host doing his "Donkey of the Day" feature (I love it!) and showing the clip of Biden saying he's running for US SENATE and that if people don't want to vote for him they can vote for "the Other Biden": (language from the radio host; Biden's clip starts at 3:45)

Debate Reaction: Elizabeth Warren's Strategy Becomes Crystal Clear

Democratic presidential candidates, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., left, and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., right, participate in a Democratic presidential primary debate at the Gaillard Center, Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2020, in Charleston, S.C., co-hosted by CBS News and the Congressional Black Caucus Institute.

They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. But what if Elizabeth Warren isn’t expecting a different result at this point?
That became fairly clear last night, as Warren once again sidestepped attacking Bernie Sanders and proclaimed herself a progressive firebrand. If you think she’s trying to win, that’s insane. But I’ve come to a different conclusion at this point. She’s not trying to win.
South Carolina’s debate was an absolute cluster, and not in a good way like last week’s debate where everyone really landed blows on each other. This was just a chaotic, nonsensical mess from start to finish. For Warren’s part, she had a chance to seize momentum (a new poll showed her second nationally) and really take Sanders down a notch.
Yet, when faced with that golden opportunity, she spent all night fluffing the communist.



Michael Bloomberg is somewhere around third or fourth place in this race, yet Warren continually chose to attack him anytime there was an opening to go after Sanders. That mirrored an earlier media event where Warren was asked about Sanders’ viability and she immediately pivoted to Bloomberg.
When the topic of Sanders praising the Cuban Revolution and the Sandinistas came up, Warren didn’t lay a finger on him. It was the one point throughout the night where she wasn’t begging to be called on by flailing her arm in the air. At other times, Warren actually praised Sanders, saying she “agrees” with him but just has slightly more fleshed out plans. That’s a really, really awful strategy if one’s goal is to take down a frontrunner.
But that’s not her goal. She’s running to be Sanders’ VP. The refusal to attack him, the constant going after of his chief rival in Bloomberg when it makes no sense, and the fluffing of his agenda make it obvious that Warren wants to be on the ticket. She (rightly) realizes that she’s not the nominee and it’s time to start making moves.
The real question is whether Sanders is dumb enough to choose her. Warren is from a non-competitive state, a deeply polarizing figure, and she’s only a month removed from launching an orchestrated lie to try to paint him as a sexist. Would he forgive all that? I’m skeptical.
In the meantime, it is enjoyable seeing Warren grovel a bit. Her arrogance has definitely been taken down a few notches.
