Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
You can tell a lot about a Democrat debate by reading the reviews posted about it by CNN and the New York Times. – Those two fake news media sources are, after all, the official mouthpieces for the Democrat Party, and their readers/viewers heavily tilt towards the voters who will end up picking the party’s nominee next year.
Over at CNN, old political chimera/hack David Gergen hilariously (unintentionally) said that the “highlight” of the debate was the emergence of a “coalition of five moderates: Bullock, Delaney, Amy Klobuchar, Tim Ryan, and John Hickenlooper.”
Here’s what’s funny about that: If you add up the polling numbers in the latest national horse race polls of those five “moderates,” you get … wait for it … ZERO. Ok, maybe you get 1, because Klobuchar does still occasionally register a smidgen of support here and there. But still, that’s a highlight?
The fact is that there is no such thing as an actual “moderate” in the Democrat party at the national level anymore. Every one of those five candidates Gergen names is for abortion until the moment of birth. Every one of them is for forcing American taxpayers to provide free healthcare to illegal immigrants. Every one of them is for some form of nationalized healthcare. Every one of them is for taking away your guns and effectively doing away with the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution. Every one of them would vote in lockstep with San Fran Nan if they served in the House of Representatives and every one of them would vote along with AOC and the “Squad” about 90% of the time.
Gergen as always is a big raging doofus. But the point here is that, if that was the most notable point of this debate in Gergen’s mind, just exactly how awful was it, really, and what does that say about the efforts of the other 7 candidates who were on the stage last night?
Fridah Ghetis, the next CNN writer on the matter, said the night “belonged to Klobuchar, Warren and Buttigieg.” Folks, any Democrat debate that “belonged” to the most abusive member of the U.S. Senate, a life-long fake Indian and the failed mayor of a small town in Indiana is a pure recipe for the landslide re-election of Donald J. Trump.
Let’s have more of these nights, please. I vote for one every week.
The New York Times, meanwhile, completely disagrees with Ghetis and CNN, singling out Klobuchar and Buttigieg as two of the three people on the stage last night who did not achieve the “breakout moment” they really needed to invigorate their campaigns.
The third named by the Times? Every fake journalist’s former love interest, Irish Bob O’Rourke. The senate looooooooser from Texas yet again demonstrated that he has no place whatsoever being in this race – he simply has no compelling reason for being on that stage, and it showed. When a guy who just got whipped in a statewide senate race tells the world that the main reason to nominate him is that he can win Texas, you know the love affair is over.
Irish Bob is done. If he had a lick of sense, he would end his presidential campaign today and come back to Texas to run in next year’s senate race vs. John Cornyn. He would lose that race, too, but he’d probably lose by a slimmer margin than anyone else the feckless Texas Democrat Party might nominate.
There were three real, obvious winners from this debate. The first two are the two “front-runners” – actually second and third-place runners behind Creepy Uncle Joe – Fauxcahontas and The Commie. The DNC had set this first night up as an opportunity for these two to go after one another, something they both refused to do. Neither one laid a hammer, sickle or tomahawk on the other, and their various run-ins with non-entities like John Delaney and Hickenlooper will make no difference to any brain-dead Democrat voter. Thus, the 2nd-and-third-runners will emerge in the polls following this week’s debates in those same positions.
The third obvious winner is the one who “won” this debate in the only measure that matters: public perception. That person is clearly the new-age nut Marianne Williamson, who felt the need to tell an interviewer prior to the debate that she is not a “new-age nut.” Well, ok, then.
But she is very entertaining, unorthodox, and, unlike anyone else on that stage, she is the one person who was actually speaking extemporaneously, saying exactly what was on her mind and what she really, truly believes. As a result, it is no accident that, as of this writing, she is receiving 47%(!) of the vote in the live Drudge Report post-debate poll as the candidate who “won” the debate. It is no accident that Google says she was the most-searched candidate in 49 of 50 states as the debate was going on.
Here’s the other thing that sets Williamson apart from the rest of the Democrat field: She speaks in a way that most ordinary Americans can relate to. The TV pundits can all laugh about her comments about there being “dark spiritual forces” at work in American society today, but I don’t know how anyone can watch 90% of the putrid dreck coming out of Hollywood these days or read about the thousands of arrests and prosecutions of child-traffickers and child-porn distributors in recent months and think that that is not a true statement.
Williamson also speaks using uplifting language rather than the dark, depressing language of the socialism being pushed by everyone around her. She talks about things like potential and beauty and success and hopes and dreams instead of the wonkish polemics being offered by automatons like The Commie and Mayor Pete. She’s been talking about things like this in front of huge audiences for more than a quarter of a century, and she’s really good at it.
The DNC is scared to death of her and will no doubt rig the process to try to keep her out of the next rounds of debates, as they are already doing to Andrew Yang. But we should expect Williamson to get some sort of polling boost out of last night’s performance.
More than anything else, what last night’s debate showed us was the somewhat amazing weakness of the Democrat field of clowns, er, candidates, and how increasingly unlikely it is that anyone on that stage will have a prayer of beating President Trump in next year’s general election.
I’m cool with that.
That is all.

CNN protected them by not asking them about the Mueller Report and impeachment. About 100 Dem House members support impeachment and most of the Dem candidates support impeachment.
She taught from the book, she did not write it.
The focus of the book isn’t miracles, it’s a daily journey into psyche patterning to realize there is only love.
Elizabeth Warren reeled off endlessly all the various forms of racism Trump is guilty of.
However, she left off the most sinister racism of all— carbon dioxide racism. But maybe that comes under the heading of environmental racism, but I am sure it had to do with Trump polluting the water in Flint. It is unforgivable that she neglected that one. Our doom is fast approaching merely because of Trump’s irrational bigotry concerning carbon dioxide.
Love Guru Marianne Williamson (my fave Dem candidate, and most searched of the ten) has her “cosmic vibe radar” up and running. Her observation of “dark psychic force of the collectivized hatred… in this country”... is REAL!
What she gets 180 degrees wrong... is this hatred is directed AT President Trump and his supporters, not from him/them. It was thick and obvious on the stage last night. The “moderates” were opposed for not hating and calling Trump “racist” enough. #DemFreeStuffHateFest

‘Cept for Creepy Joe, who is actually a Klingon.
I guess the are putting Joe with the minorities since Joe is a racist.
I knew that guy is a carbon dioxide supremacist. I KNEW IT!
Anybody notice that Bernie & Pocahantus were side by side w/ podiums so the TV shot got them both, like no one else was there?
Just as I suspected the Democrat Party 2020 POTUS debate last evening will not even come close to the first Democrat Party Debates in June. “Deadline Hollywood” is stating, without posting any TV viewer numbers, that last night debate farce will come in way below the 15,000,000 viewers of the first Democrat debates in June.
In street language...that means CNN Flopped along with the entire deadbeat Democrat Party. Viewer results should be post nationally sometime this afternoon. Yes, Virginia, both CNN & The Democrat Party are destroying themselves, one in viewer participation, & one politically!!! the Druge straw POll was right on the money...failure across the board. POTUS, Trump has to be somewhat happy this morning.
The Trump political Rally scheduled for Thursday evening in Cincinnati, Ohio at the U.S. Bank Arena (Capacity, 18,000 people) will be a massive blockbuster, barn burner success with somewhere between 18,000-30,000 people attending the rally. Be there...folks, contact: www.donaldjtrump.com for information and details. Go, Trump, Go MEGA/MAGA, Go, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
No one else televised it.
Can anyone explain why the democrats control every aspect of the Presidential debates?
They are allowed to cheat in favor of dems - Donna Brazile openly admitting she gave hillary the questions before one of the debates with NO REPERCUSSIONS.
Why does the GOP allow this to go on? This is like going to war with the enemy setting up the war, providing the ammo and medical care.
TOTALLY ONE SIDED.
If I was Elizabeth, I would have moved away for my own safety.
Where’s duh black people at???!!!
For such a ‘progressive, anti-racist party, all they are running is whiteys!
"I am not a witch!"

115 in the House now support impeachment inquiry
But it is not a subject for discussion by the Dem candidates for President. An oversight? I don’t think so. Let’s see if it comes up tonight.
“She taught from the book, she did not write it.
The focus of the book isn’t miracles, it’s a daily journey into psyche patterning to realize there is only love.”
She did write a book discussing the book “ACIM”. If you read ACIM, (I tried) within the first few pages the divinity of Christ is denied. I want nothing to do with that book. It is as full of lies as the Koran. My pastor says ACIM is the work of the devil.
Yeah that’s a cooler name than deplorables. There is gold there I think. :)
I would rather pull my own molars and finger nails with a pair of pliers than watch that insanity.
I was having a Jimmy Dean egg sandwich and a cup of Folgers.
