Alpha's Florida Democratic Debate Live Blog
Submitted by Alphalop on Wed, 03/09/2016 - 4:30pm
Tonight I will be doing another live blog since I had so much fun doing last nights MI Election one!
I will start probably 30 minutes or so (appx 8:30 EST) before the commencement of the debate and hope to see a bunch of you there!
Keep feeling the BERN and catch you guys and gals in a few hours!
Have an Amazing day and remember to:

Comments
Me either
I could not listen to bush 2 or Obomber once he was elected and lost Pouffle as speechwriter.
GLOVES ARE OFF!
Bernie isn't letting her get away with her lie about deporting children...
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
HRC promises to give due process to children
undocument immigrant children and make their voice heard.
Wow, that's really great. I will not deport children, she wants to prioritize who to deport. Asylum is a particular legal process, under our law we have a process. I will stop
Bernie: the proof is in the pudding. talks about Honduras. can't follow typing.
oh, HRC is awful, attacks Sanders on legislation
he voted for. She makes very unfair statements. Bernie shoots back. Can't live blog it. Sorry.
Thank you for doing this.
I think I'm going to find it much better for me to follow the debate with the commentary going on here~
I shave my legs with Occam's Razor~
I am loving this Bernie!
He is staying on point and calling her right out!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
immigration
Jorge is very unhappy with Obama re not doing immigration reform. Said he promised. And his deportations, of course. Heard him talking about it in interview. Deeply disappointed in Obama.
She is still trying to sell the Auto bailout move.
Doesn't she realize Detroit is behind them and outside of Michigan are more concerned about giving money to Wall Street and not the auto thing.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Wow that sounded like gibberish
So hard to type a thought while listening carefully to what they are saying, lol!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
may be just listening is enough for now. Thanks for trying
to live blog. It's too hard for me. Kudos for your efforts.
live blogging
You're fine.
What's the difference between her wall and Trumps! LOL
Love these questions, but she isn't answering the question as usual just running out the clock.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
I hope people are watching. She could lose Florida
classic "will say anything Hillary"
Would love to see Bernie say "get rid of Brock!"
the obvious answer would be, if she's President,
she can hire award the contract to Trump, whereas if he were President, he'd have to go with whatever company is second best. Like Bechtel.

You're supposed to EAT the meat!
You're supposed to EAT the meat! You're supposed to smoke the WEED! (I'm in Colorado -- I can say that!)

Thanks for all the comments, mate!
It sounds like Hillary is same old same old - sly lies and shifty dancing.

Awesome
But I always think he is awesome.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Did Hillary claim not to be a politician?
just a concerned citizen doing volunteer work to help everyone.
Damn, he is CREAMING her on EVERY question
I mean I know I am biased but I am trying to evaluate her answers honestly and I just don't think she comes off as honest and her refusal to answer questions and talking over the moderators is gonna work against her towards changing that perception.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
The confirmation bias is strong in debate-watching.
HRC supporters were confident that she had crushed him in the previous debate, particularly with the bogus "gaffe" about ghettos and the exchange over the auto bailout.
And hell, I don't know, maybe they were right. Maybe he would've won Michigan by 6 or 7 points otherwise.

What about the money
Bernie asks Hillary that if her speeches were so wonderful that wall street paid millions of dollars,
why can't america hear the wonderful things she talked about?
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
These moderators are asking better questions,
but are not doing a good job of holding the candidates to the debate rules.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Wow, her fans at the debate are actually booing a question?
Did all of DK get an invite to it except us?
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Sanders "I don't want Kissingers praise!"
Wow, thats gotta sting!

If HFK came crawling out of woods into my yard,

I'd go looking for the guy or gal that did it and give them a
nice cup of cocoa and thank them for their service.

wow just got back from grocery shopping
was afraid I missed it all.
My boys are going crazy, they always think all my food is there and start running all over the house (all 400 sq ft of it!) play fighting but pretty rough about it.
Ugh Hillary. Gonna be a rough 4 years if we have to listen to her or Trump blathering on with their official bullshit everywhere all the time.
Never be deceived that the rich will allow you to vote away their wealth.-Lucy Parsons
trying to guess what her next attack will be
Bernie loves the Minutemen, he loves the Kochs.
My guess is she'll call him anti-Semitic.
The minutemen one was just ridiculous
The Koch brothers one is what Clinton has been saying all along. What a load of bullshit.
Why wouldn't Bernie like the Minutemen?
They seem like philosophical compatriots to me:

Love that song! gotta remember to toss that one in my playlist
So much good music out there.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Wow, this is the most contentious of the debates
Both candidates on the attack. Who is scoring more? Of course I am biased, and I am having trouble even listening to her comments any more. I leave the room. That's not a good thing.
Also, the moderators are not pulling any punches. Damn
danger
Bernie:
'He's right. I am dangerous.'
referring to a comment by Goldman Sachs person
TYT:
I am the danger.
I am the one who knocks.
Hey ... are we supporting Gandalf?

I got their feed paused so I can catch up on it when this one
is over.
They got some witty comments but I like being able to see the candidates body language and expressions. It tells me more than their words do in some cases.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Back from the Break! Now with Meat update. :)
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
She's getting smoked like this pork butt!
And I am loving it!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Oh man!
that is just cruel.
I shave my legs with Occam's Razor~
It's official
I can't stand her... too many lies, too much slime.
Progressive to the bone.
I have to mute whenever she speaks
in order to protect my blood pressure.
“We came, we saw, she lied . . .” ?? n/t
copy cat
I think Bernie just said thanks for copying my plan.
tyt were talking over it a bit.
Hillary is about to get owned, Climate change questions.
She owns fracking, its gonna hurt her.
But Floridians are pretty conservative so who knows if it will be enough to push them to a liberal progressive candidate.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Man I hope sanders or a moderator
asks her about fracking.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Go Bernie
About time he started standing up and fighting back!!!
Enuf with this nice guy crap.
Hillary:
NO WE CAN'T
NO WE CAN'T
Hillary is sooooo inspiring!

HRC talking over Sanders, jeez, I don't want her
in a position of power. Sanders is fighting back pretty, pretty, pretty good...
Seem like both are getting lots of cheers
A lively crowd. Tough debate.
sexism
Hillary would not let Bernie interrupt. What a sexist she is.
Clinton continues her campaign of NOPE, we can't do that.
Is there anything she will fight for?
Hillary Clinton, The "Nopeulist" Candidate. :)
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Trust me, that sounded better in my head, lol!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
They should have cut her mic.
She talked over and ignored the Moderator for almost a full minute.
Made her look both like a bully and rude in my opinion.
Bernie HAMMERED her on fracking.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
I am so glad that they ended up having more debates.
These last two are really getting to the issues.
no debates for the faint of heart like me
I can't deal with the divisiveness.
Sometimes Divisiveness is good
When it serves to illustrate a clear difference in policy or whatnot.
But the Republican dick joke circus kind isn't productive at all.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
After the next break they are talking about Latin America
This one could REALLY hurt her depending on the questions asked, if they get her on regime change shes gonna need to double speak like crazy to dodge that.
We have a large population of Latin American people in Florida.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Cuba
Hillary goes after human rights in Cuba.
Just like those ones we've given them since the missile crises Hillary?
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
as soon as HRC defends Obama, she gets applause...
her success depends on people being afraid to say anything critical of Obama and she uses this fact to pull one stunt after the other.
the msm is fully involved in pulling with her all those stunts and I don't see where anybody can get their unbiased coverage excluding a couple of online places.
Oh she talks against the Cuban's Castros. I can't stand it anymore. Oh and now the questioners try to trap Sanders on Cuba.
Sanders could have done better on the Cuban portion
That could hurt him a bit, Florida has a very large population of Cubans both in the Metro and non metro counties.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
I don't know
People back in the day said Obama was crazy for opening relations with Cuba, and he won the Cuban vote if I recall correctly.
Progressive to the bone.
I agree, and support normalizing relations.
but its a hot button issue with Cubans, and a divided one.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Not the business
of America to be overthrowing countries around the world.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
That last round could have gone better for Sanders
Neither candidate did great but I think Hillary probably took that round.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Agreed
Sanders had a rambling answer.
That's the first time in the debate that Sanders may have lost.
It only came after he had hammered her for ONE HOUR AND FOURTY MINUTES.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
Yeah, he is turning into Rocky this campaign!
And since he committed to taking the gloves off he can do it and still look good because he doesn't have to lie or exaggerate a thing, he can point at her record and let her own actions take her down.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
not in my mind ...
thanks to you and have all a good night.
Hillary has hade some
good nights.
This wasn't one.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
So far in my opinion Bernie has won almost every round
Keep it up BERNIE!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Thanks Alphalop! Thanks everyone!
This was great. Since I can't view it, I knew where to hang out to hear what was going on.

Bernies Opening statement was on FIRE
Hillary chuckles at him like he is an idiot...
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Errr, I meant closing statement
stupid brain, I must punish you!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Hillary says she will stand her ground
HA HA HA HA HA
yeah right, when has Hillary ever taken a stand!!!

Stand her ground?
Ugh, her ground is made out of a slip n slide.
I shave my legs with Occam's Razor~
Now that is funny!
Kudos!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Standing Ovation
Exactly how I feel.
Bravo Bernie. He destroyed her tonight and...
she destroyed herself.
Perfect.
Progressive to the bone.
That was pretty great.
A standing ovation at a debate. Let's hope this starts translating into vote upsets.
Goodnight, everybody.
Thank you, Alphalop, for the thread.
Thanks for hanging with us!
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Bernie is on a roll
This Debate performance and his surge in the race HAS to be getting to Hillary.
Inertia is a very real, and big, deal.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Thanks for hosting!
Let's keep pushing his momentum
Both my wife and I donated $27 more
I hope he pulls this thing off. How great would it be to see some surprise wins on Tuesday?
