  • And the more Trump continues to be "flexible" from day to day on his stances, he loses a bit of that, too. The thing with Rubio, though, is that he never was going to be the answer to the Trump riddle anyway. He was always an afterthought in thi…

  • They're difficult to understand because they defy logic. It's absurd that the same three states (Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina) get to have the most definitive say in which candidates the majority of the country get to choose from every c…
  • The yellow filter persists in Spectre, though, not just in the Mexico City scenes. It plagues the Rome scenes and dulls what should have been a very crisp-looking location in Austria. The decision to do this was definitely one of the big problem…

  • The stakes are also high while dealing with Putin and the other world leaders. He wont want to look weak then either. EDIT: The debate rules also didn't lead to Rubio and Trump talking about how big various parts of Trump's anatomy is either.

  • Attacking is fine, when its substantive and based on policy differences. Attacking because you want to call your opponent a name is not, and that's a large part of what was happening in the early going. They've decided to stop the name calling a…

  • It's not a function of the debate mechanics. They've managed to be much more dignified than this in debates that featured many more candidates than we currently have where they all got less time. They've also managed to be more civilized as the nu…
  • I'm aware of that, but they're both acting like little children. They're only getting most of the attacks because they keep talking over each other, forcing the moderators to go back to them one at a time because they keep bickering like school chi…

  • The behavior of both Trump and Rubio in this debate has been disgusting. It's hard to make Ted Cruz look presidential, but those two are succeeding in that effort.

  • We have seen what he does, though. He spent the entire lead-up to 2012 attacking Obama for not being born in the United States, even though he was born in Hawaii. He's done the same for Ted Cruz, even though he has an American parent. Then he tur…
  • You guys are all wrong. Surely the double-taking pigeon from the Moore Era is the best performance of the whole franchise. ;)
  • Trump has been toying with the idea of running for president for a long time. Given that he's spent the entire 2016 campaign running on a platform of racism, bigotry, and neo-fascism, one decision that may, or most likely may not, have been made in…

  • Rubio's attacks hurt him because he's going after things like Trump wetting himself during the debate rather than attacking Trump's economic policies and his racism, which Romney did very effectively. Where Romney will have his problem is just fr…
  • It would be nice if the other Republican nominees would take the approach Romney did in his speech today with respect to his criticism of Trump. Romney gave the kind of detailed, policy-based rebuttal of Trump's idiocy that nobody else in the Repub…
