CNN Preps for Dryball Debate
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | October 12, 2015 | Rush Limbaugh

RUSH: We also have, of course the political news is based on the fact the Democrat debate is tomorrow night in Las Vegas, and there's all kinds of concern and worry about this. CNN says they're gonna put a podium up for Joe Biden. They're trying to entice Biden into showing up because without Trump on the stage, actually without the Republicans on the stage, this debate is gonna be a yawner. Nobody's gonna watch it, not in terms of the numbers that watched the Republican debate. The people who are gonna tune into this thing tomorrow night are gonna be tuning in to see a car wreck. They want to see Hillary implode. They want to see whatever Bernie Sanders has, who he is, what he's gonna do, what it's gonna look like. And, by the way, you know what, CNN has made an announcement.

Anderson Cooper, host of Anderson Cooper 19 has made an announcement, and that is they are not going to pit Democrat candidates against each other. That is not part of the debate format. Now, that is a distinct difference from the first Fox debate when that's exactly what did happen. And there are a number of theories as to why it happened. I mean, the theories run the gamut. Fox wanting to show everybody they're not in the tank for the Republicans. Fox wanted to demonstrate that they can be hard on Republicans. Fox wanting to take out all opponents of Jeb Bush. I mean, there were any number of theories running around to explain that theory.

So it's Anderson Cooper who's just out front here saying, sorry, we're not gonna do that, we're not gonna pit these people against each other. Of course, never did expect that to happen. That's the difference. You know, CNN, the Drive-By Media, they don't have any guilt feelings. They don't think they have to prove themselves to anybody. And they certainly don't think they have to be critical of people on their own side for credibility, which, sadly, is what many Republicans still believe. That the only way you can be credible as a Republican or as a conservative media person is to be critical of your own team. That proves that you're not biased. That proves you are not afraid to criticize your own people. Except it never happens on the left. CNN would never, ever do anything. Now, the candidates might, but CNN's not gonna do anything to make any of these people look bad. They rally the troops. They circle the wagon. They do everything they can to protect.

Well we know they aren’t going to be charging $200,000 a minute for this, back to the old $4000, or less, a minute and hope they get some takers.

There’s baseball and hockey on TV tomorrow night. Heck, I’d rather watch “Elvis Clone Reveals Ancient Alien Nazi UFO Conspiracy” on History channel anyway.

Which Clinton will show up? The “funny”, late night TV, SNL Clinton or the angry, American male-hating Clinton? Or, at this point, what difference does it make?

I’m hoping the “drunk off her ass again” Clinton shows up.

CNN should run the political ads Hillary, Bernie etc have made... Run the ads for the two hours. There's no reason to fake a debate .. the American public 'gets' CNN we're not going to be fooled by their softball or 'cute' questions.

When these lowlife excuses for journalist do a Republican debate they solicit questions from Dem political consultants and anyone out there who can stick it to a Republican.

When it's a dem 'debate' CNN looks to the shallowness of face book so the 'teacher's pets' can look good with stupid or funny questions to make dems look good, or funny, or charming... CNN sucks. Briefs or boxers? Funniest thing we don't know about you? Favorite thing to do when bored? CNN sucks.

Wonder if I can find the Heraldo “vault” footage?

Heck, that would be more educational.

What would you do if you were Biden?

I think waiting until the day after the debate to announce would be wise. It would avoid another location for “foot-in-mouth” disease...:^)

A prediction: with the Communist News Network (CNN) running the debacle, the debate will be so arranged that the most communist of the lot, Comrade Bernie Sanders, will be hailed the winner.

CNN cancelled the third hour of the debate....proclaiming th debate was too long......facts are: their advertisers backed away from sponsering the third hour, knowing that 90% of the viewers will either be sleeping...or turned to another channel.

Seriously...good folks....do not watch this debate for one second.....we can do damage to the Democrat Party in 2016...if this farce of a debate is a major failure!!! DO NOT WATCH THIS DEMOCRAT PARTY DEBATE!!!
