OT and for the record, the moderators from CBS News have been announced for the NEXT debate (not tonight’s):
Le sigh…
Can anyone older than Yoda please leave the stage and drop out of the race?
Good Lord – it looks like a family tree with the kids in the middle and cave paintings of their ancestors on the outside.
Maybe we could at least have only candidates who were born after electric lighting became commonplace?
BTW, with every debate, Sanders is looking more and more like this guy:
“We did release a memo which demonstrated that fact and we as a party need to think about who that candidate is and who best takes on Donald Trump in November.”
Elizabeth Warren. Bloomberg has too much baggage. If he wants to say he is the Independent, fine, but this is for the Democratic nomination, and he’s not really “we” for one thing.
Chuck Todd? Sigh
“Opening question for each of the group to answer: When did you stop being a Communist?”
