My gut tells me that the real winner was anyone who didn’t watch the debate and missed Chris Matthew’s grandstanding, incessant babble, and rude interruptions. If you pushed me, though, I would tell you the real winner was either the Democratic Party or Fred Thompson.
I did learn some interesting things:
1.) At least three of the candidates question evolution.
2.) Tommy Thompson thinks it is cool to fire people if they are gay.
3.) Our cultural decay is the root of all problems.
4.) Abortion is the WORSTEST THING EVAH!
5.) Rudy Giuliani, for all his flaws, wass the only one on the stage other than Ron Paul who seems to embrace federalism.
6.) Tom Tancredo is WHOLLY unqualified for any job more important than county dog catcher, and even then I don’t want him near animals.
7.) Gilmore thinks highly of his record. So much so, that when he is talking about himself and how wonderful he is, you briefly forget wehat is really running through your head- ‘Who the hell is this guy?’
8.) Duncan Hunter is batshit crazy and should not be responsible for any intelligence/military related issues.
9.) John McCain is too old to be President. He forgets what he is saying mid-sentence, mumbles, garbles his words, his responce latency is increasing, and he should not be considered a viable candidate. Time has taken its toll on him.
10.) Mitt Romney’s capacity to be oozingly oily and cheesy surprised even me. If there was a more fake man on stage, I don’t know who it is. The man clearly will say anything to win.
11.) The Constitution should not be changed to allow immigrants to run for President, but it should be changed to bash gays.
Overall, if I had to declare a winner among those on stage, it would probably be McCain. He was willing to say enough things to keep everyone happy. The most surprising thing for me was how likable Sam Brownback and Mike Huckabee can be, although that doesn’t override that Brownback is a religious nutter. Huckabee wanting to make environmentalism a religious mandate is the sort of thing that terrifies me for obvious reasons, but he seems like a decent guy. Of all the people on that stage, if I had to choose one to live next door to me, it would be Mike Huckabee. Take that for what it is worth.
Another thing that surprised me is how bloody awful Giuliani’s presentation style is- he is just not a good public speaker. Not that that really matters- his honesty regarding abortion will ensure he is never elected.
All in all, a depressing night. I really did not see anyone or anything very Presidential, and Hunter, Tancredo, and Thompson should just save themselves some time and drop out now.
Paul Wartenberg
You really forgot who the big winner was in last night’s necro-orgy: Ronald Reagan. My God, every candidate praised his name at least once. You’d think they’d dug up his body and had his corpse argue their case that a Republican should lead us for another four years.
You can tell a party is dead when the most popular guy in the room *is* dead.
Hyperion
it’s worth about as much as the sentiment that GWB would be more fun to have a beer with than Gore….which is to say NOTHING.
Dreggas
Watching the little bits that I did last night I was amazed at just how much they were trying to out George Bush, George Bush. Shit the only thing lacking was the inability to pronounce nuclear wrong. Further I believe Tancredo gets the proky pig award for most stuttering and stammering.
Not a single one of them looked presidential and all I could think was that if any one of them got elected the unthinkable would happen, our nation would regress even further than it has the past 6 years.
The dems could probably nominate a dog and it would win over these bunch of neanderthals. I haven’t seen that much extremism on one stage regarding war hardons, or religious hard-ons since…well…ok the last republican convention but shit…
Oh and Thompson’s whole “descrimination is ok” bit as far as firing gay people, he just sucked dobson’s dick better than any of them with that one, of course it means he won’t be president but that is a good thing.
Ned Raggett
We still need the Ron Paul report.
brendanm
Re: Fred Thompson as big winner — that seems to be the general conclusion on the internets.
Sorta funny that RS has a post up about an inane article questioning whether Thompson playing an anti-semitic guy on TV will hurt him. They rightfully conclude that it’s a non-issue, but don’t really address the critical point, to wit: if Thompson had written a book in which a character observed an instance of anti-semitism, he’d clearly be a Nazi.
Pb
But note:
Huckabee was one of those three–he seems like a nice guy, but he’s still a nutter.
John Cole
Oh, I am aware of Huckabee’s religious beliefs. That was kind of my point when I noted his morphing of religious/environmental views.

Between this and the Democrat’s Debate, I haven’t seen two such uninspiring things since Diane Keaton’s bare bosoms in “Something’s Gotta Give”!
All I can say is starting with Bill Clinton (yes, even him): “Is this the best the Baby Boomer generation has to offer?”
You gave yourselves free prescription drugs, now can you all just retire and start taking them? humph…Baby Boomers, what a waste of a generation!
Tom Hilton
Only as long as he’s not…y’know…federal. I guarantee you that if he were elected President he would be all in favor all manner of federal diktats to the states. Giuliani believes in one and only one principle, and that is absolute power for Rudy Giuliani.
Dave in ME
Easy to see who won the debate – the American people because they got to see what a bunch of morally repugnant frauds those clowns are. With a field like that and a war wholly owned by Republicans, their prospects for next fall, for either the White House or Congress, could not look much worse.
Best moment of the night had to be when they were asked who did not believe in evolution.
Teak111
My standard for Presidents that never were is Colin Powell, but he is irreputably damaged for his WMD speech, but his other qualities are what I would like to see in a president but probably never will. The qualities to be a good president at antithetical to those required to smooze and win. I still can’t figure out how Bush won in 04. How could did that happen.
ThymeZone
Fine, fine post, and it captures quite well a lot of unfortunate truth about the current GOP and also about our political process WRT the media. (In a word, it’s crap).
The state of the GOP is sad, really, and I say this as a blue and yellow dog Democrat. I’m a Dem for policy reasons, not because I think Dem politicians are wonderful people. If we had a better GOP, I wouldn’t have to lay awake nights worrying about whether these totally insane, lying bastards are going to take over the country again. But I do, because …… well, you saw last night, right? I mean, could you write a Joseph Heller novel about politics any more bizarre than what we saw last night? Good God almighty, these are some seriously crazy and dishonest fuckers who think they ought to be running our country, and they have to be stopped. There is a clash of civilizations going on, and it’s going on right here in this country, kids.
Dreggas
Yeah, Sullivan has been documenting Giuliani, he’s definitely one of the worst Authoritarians on the list.
Dreggas
It’s bad enough these people exist, worse still that everything they were saying last night was designed to get votes from the neanderthals that think like them and no one else. Even worse there isn’t a one of them that an honest conservative, meaning people like John and others who realize just how fucked up the current admin is, could even pull the lever for, meaning that the one who gets the nomination is going to be the one who’s the biggest nut.
I can see the ’08 republican convention now, storm troopers and jackboots aplenty with armbands bearing a cross….

On the one hand, it’s good that the number is so low, considering how many Republicans question evolution. For that matter, Americans in general. On the other hand though, from what I’ve read, it was a real softball question. A binary, agree/disagree with “evolution” is a very safe question. Even just substituting in the phrase “intelligent design” or “teach the controversy” or something would have been a much tougher, and more useful, question. Pity.
Stuff like this often seems like a dodge to me. Gay marriage as discussed during the 2004 Democratic primaries was a good example. It seemed like the serious candidates devoted at most five seconds to what they actually think about the ethics and effects and legality of gay marriage, and the rest of their allotted time to how great it is that each state can decide the issue on their own so the president doesn’t have to. Substantively, it’s a defensible position, and pragmatically, there were much more important arguments for and against all the candidates than nearly-empty rhetoric on this one issue. But it grated because anyone who thinks a general principled case for or against gay marriage really depends on the whims of the individual state is crazy, and anyone who honestly has no personal opinion about whether legal gay marriage would be good or not is too uninformed to be president of the local Lion’s Club.
But anyways, how exactly did Giuliani and Paul reveal themselves as markedly better than the competition on the principle of federalism, and/or cravenly dodge the question? I didn’t see the debate.

I wonder how Romney would answer the “boxer’s or briefs?” question.

As near as I could tell, it was nothing but a staged opportunity for these lying cocksuckers to take swings at puffball “questions” that are just prompts for talking points.
The absurd idea seems to be that in a Republican primary, the only relevant material is Republican talking points. Later in the general election, we get to ask things like “Your coalition includes people who think the earth is 600 years old. Are you seriously going to run for president and not bitchslap those people?”
Of course in the general, we get the Rove effect, where the time and space are consumed with jackalope sightings.
ThymeZone
600 really means 6000.
Heh.

Did anyone see MSNBC’s interview with Mr. and Mrs. Brownback after the debate? He said nothing suprising, but his wife would randomly/vacantly look at the camera (for about three seconds), then look at Mr. Brownback (whether he was talking or not…for three more seconds)…then look back at the camera (for three seconds)….etc. It was just…odd.
Andrew
I guarantee that anyone married to Brownback is taking a truckload of mood stabilizers.
Zifnab
For starters, this dog-and-pony show of Republicans parading moral values was two years younger and didn’t have quite as many scandals plaguing it as it does today. Remember, John Cole was a George Bush Republican in ’04, so don’t pretend like the public hasn’t shifted since then.
Beyond that, I’m kinda glad Bush did win in ’04 if only because all the corruption and destruction caused by this administration can’t be handed off into the Democrats’ laps. A Democratic President without a Democratic Congress would have been less than useless, because – as the Republicans proved from ’94 to ’00 – they can do just as much damage and be alot less visible when they’re running the Congress and letting a Dem sit in the White House. I don’t think ’06 would have happened if not for Bush winning in ’04. I don’t think the Out of Iraq Dem caucus would have emerged with Kerry as President. And I don’t think guys like George Allen and Richard Pombo would have lost their seats if they had powerful Democrats to demonize.
In the end, I think we had to take a step back (and it was a big, ugly step) for our politics to move two steps forward. The damage dealt to the Republican Party and its national image of “morals” and “responsibility” by another four years of Bush was, ultimately, necessary to get people to wake up.

I thought exactly the same thing when I first saw Huckabee on TDS and last night’s debate. I could get along with him, and you have the sense he’d respect your opinions even if he disagreed. While I wouldn’t mind him living next door or my kids playing in his yard, no way I’d want him as president.
Me too. Hadn’t seen him much before. The guy is a windup plastic Ken doll.
Checked RedState last night to see what the nutter take would be on The Lifelong Varmint Hunter. Noticed one commenter was impressed how “attractive” Mitt was. He was seconded. Apparently remaining straight Republicans who aren’t seeing hookers is a vanishing demographic.

I felt sorry for her. The same way I feel sorry for James Mcgreevy’s wife and Ted Haggard’s wife.

Too bad. Trying to justify a religious belief that the world is only 600 years old would be beyond hilarious. I suppose Christopher Columbus is the grandson of Adam and Eve, and he’s Noah, too, only he has the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria instead of just one Ark.
George Bush would be Jesus, I suppose. He killed for your sins, America.

Also, try to refute all the evidence that the world existed before 1407. Fuck the fossil record and whatnot: the entire Holy Bible is a lie written by Catholics in 1750, the Divine Comedy and Chaucer were actually written in 1552, and the Roman Empire is a myth. This is only a small taste of the outright wackiness that would ensue.
Could someone please, please, please invent this religion for me?

I believe the world is only 60 years old. People who claim to be older than 60 are liars- they’re only 60, and were created on the seventh day of the world.
Maybe the world is only 60 seconds old, and the time before that is just a collective lie God implanted in our brains to trick us and keep us from going nuts at being born beyond infancy. Bet you moonbats can’t refute that one, can you?

I would also vote for the escaped mental patient, if the escaped mental patient were running against George Bush. (At least he might have multiple personalities providing him with a diverse number of points of view, which is more than you can say for Bush’s inner circle.)
I would also vote for a stray pigeon I saw in the park, if that stray pigeon happened to be running against George Bush. At least that pigeon couldn’t fuck anything up worse than it’s already been fucked up.
I would also vote for a stray ball of lint if it ran against George Bush, for reasons similar to those for which I would vote for the pigeon. As a matter of fact, if the Democrats nominated that pigeon as their2008 candidate, with the stray ball of lint as its running mate, they’d still probably beat any of those Bush clones running on the GOP ticket in 2008.
(If the pigeon was eaten before the election, they could always appoint a rabid squirrel as the new candidate. I think that rabid squirrel could handle a situation like Iraq much more effectively than Bush has. If that rabid squirre succumbed before the election, a sewer rat would do in a pinch. That sewer rat has a proven record as being more reliable on the issue of education reform than Bush has.)

After 90 minutes of listening to the debate, I felt it was time wasted, in spite of having a glass of wine! It was beyond shocking. You would think they lived in a different world than the rest of us- what cognitive dissonance. What was most frightening is how quickly they will start another war with Iran, and who can out-nut the other. Someone stated earlier about a fairly sane Paul. I kept wondering all through the 90 minutes if these guys were for real. The winner was the dead guy-Reagan.

Ok, we’ve had two baby boomer Presidents now, Clinton and Bush II.

I could be wrong here, but Bush II makes Bubbah look like one of the greatest leaders in history, and I don’t even particularly like Clinton, or his wife. It will be decades before Republicans can recover from this castastrofuck of a Presidency.
Americans, god bless em, are starting to pay attention, and with this field of Republicans (plus Gingrich and Thompson) that can’t be anything but great for Democrats.
This is the most pathetic collection of homophobic, science-denying, “oozingly oily and cheesy,” Reagan wannabee flip-floppers I’ve seen from the Party of Torture yet.

Chuck Butcher
Even though almost everything Reagan actually presided over proved incompetence (no, he didn’t kill the USSR-he was there when it happened), the best thing the Republicans could do would be to dig him up, poke a stick up his butt, mount him on wheels and run him. He’d make as much sense as he ever did and be as inoffensive (from upwind) and be capable of vetoing absolutely nothing, I suppose the lack of signing would be a defacto veto – forcing actual non-partisan action. The drawback would be Nancy consulting horoscopes to find out what he really meant to do.
I don’t know how the wingnut faction would fare in Congressional elections with a dead guy at the top of the ticket, but by actually moving under their own power in his presence they would give evidence of life – intelligent or not – the God intervention idea might suffer from his lack of deus ex machina speeches.
Their biggest problem would occur when Dennis Kucinich claimed to be higher encarnation of Reagan in his march toward higher life form. The majority of the population would be best served by taking large doses of strong hallucinigens and contemplating a peanut before voting Reagan08 – A Nude Day.

Maybe I’m wrong but it’s hard for me to imagine anyone other than Huckabee or Romney winning any of the debates. The other candidates are all certifiably insane.

Compare the Dem debate with the GOP debate. Brian William’s questions were loaded and often hostile. Matthews, on the other hand, asked the Republicans softball quesions. He even asked them if they think it would be good to have “big Bill” back in the White House, of course giving the candidates ample opportunity to bash Bill and Hillary. When will the Democats demand that this shit has to STOP!
