LOOK AT CARSON.
FUCKING LOOK AT HIM.
Edit: Ok wrong thread, but oh my god this debate was a complete breakdown about 5 seconds in.

Sometimes two stories need to be viewed together.
Christie smacks around Rubio, Trump self destructs over imminent domain.
It was a glorious shit show
In that he has the capacity to reason? Sure.
He is the guy where maybe at most half of his opinions vaguely resembled something sane and the other half were pretty bad and not actually significantly different from those of the candidates billed as crazies. Talking about how terribly persecuted Christians are under Obama, crazy military shit such as on military spending, torture, and many other terrible stuff in this debate.

Oh so that's what evil looks like.

Yes. I remember the Romneybot jokes, but Rubio is much worse. Christie called him out on his "He knows exactly what he's doing" line.....and he repeated it again.
Also, Newt Gingrich says that Trump won the debate (of course that I found this on Trump's twitter):
He also praised everybody except Cruz and Rubio, for obvious reasons.
Bonus:
I still don't like Christ Christie the person, but I like actions of Chris Christie vis a vis yelling at Marco Rubio.
Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.
The solution here is clear: Christie should be removed from his job as Governor and instead his permanent position should be to follow Rubio around harassing him till the primary and/or election is over.
After that, we'll find him a new assignment.
It's like Freddy vs. Jason.
Wait, I thought he was a prosecutor
QEDMF xbl: PantsB G+
He was a US Attorney before he was governor, so yes he was a prosecutor at one point in his career.
He was appointed the day before 9/11! He prosecuted terrorists!
Fun Fact: This happened on my birthday. As in literally, my mother was giving birth to me as the hostages were being released.

Different kind of release, your situation was more prisoner release than hostage.

No, no, no. Big Dookie's birth was so terrifying, the Iranians released the hostages.

In the general maybe, but in the GOP primary media saying anything about you negatively is a positive sadly. And Romney proved you can lie almost none stop and the media will still report your lies as fact if they want to run a narrative of "Democrat in trouble as new made up bullshit emerges from the GOP" And we've seen with the none stop none story about Hillary's *blank* the media is tipping their hand here once again. I mean fuck sake there was an article about how when Hillary was first lady the popularity of her first name plummeted for baby names, this was a real story reported like it meant something.

He said he didn't, but what he actually meant was "I tried and tried and fought it all the way up to the supreme court and the old lady beat me and I lost."
Jeb was also saying that the Keystone Pipeline is a public project. And it isn't.
Though let's be honest here: Besides the donor class and a small cadre of lolbertarians, not many people care about eminent domain. Else, the story would have stuck when other people reported it early on the race.
It does poke holes in Trumps claims that he is the uber-populist outsider who can fix everything unlike all these insiders who are just all career government types.
Now, none of us need to be disabused of that notion because we never swallowed it to begin with. But the public at large sure seems to have.
