Everson's campaign actually lasted more than three times as long as Scott Walker's. He spent about as much as former New York governor George Pataki. He made more early-state visits than former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

So we can definitely count on more Bush v Rubio drama and possibly Kasich getting owned by Trump again. Surprised Christie is at the kiddie table after the supposed positive reception he got from the CNBC debate.

I'm honestly surprised he didn't gain even a little bit of traction from his performance last time. Despite the bloodthirstiness I figured his humor would at the least keep him from slipping further into bourbon/obscurity.

The NBC/WSJ poll didn't ask about Graham, Pataki, Santorum, or Jindal, which probably hurt their overall numbers.

Graham will be doing a live beer tasting and rifftax at Who's on Third one block down from the Milwaukee theater starting with the undercard debate. Mention that you're with Graham and you get 1/2 price off you call its.

We're going to have to go to the Democratic debates to have a candidate who suddenly starts talking about war out of nowhere now :(.

On the positive side, Huckabee is out of the main debate. I know that appearances are a terrible metric to judge by (and he's terrible for plenty of other reasons anyways), but looking at Huckabee was physically unpleasant.

Same, his debate performance last time was great, and pretty much everyone agreed he won.

Hahaha Christie knows exactly what his strength is and is going after it. Smart campaigning. I think we have our next Fiorina moment here.

At least without Christie in the picture, we can finally get down to the real business of how the candidates are doing on their fantasy football.

Hej min vän, hur står det till?
I like how the main debate is still more candidates and thus less air time per person than the babby table. They even reduced it from 11 (remember that arbitrary shuffle?) to 8 and it's still lopsided.

Not true. I was looking for a really bad one when I was making that Mortal Kombat thing and googling her picture gave me way too many options.

Before she got the lighter dye job she looked like she was about two seconds away from yelling at some flying monkeys

Christie and Huckabee out while Paul and Kasich remain? All 4 should be gone IMO, but it should be the other way around if only 2 are bumped.

Hell, I just checked Huffpo and filtered out the partisan polls and polls of adults and not voters, and Fiorina is under 3% too.

Why do these networks keep choosing criteria that overcrowd the stage and create a worse product??? Losers IMO, they should sell to Trump.

And no Graham in the undercard is a travesty. Christie, Huckabee, Graham, and Santorum would be a good undercard. Who are these crazed weirdos who like Bobby Jindal???

Googled this desperately hoping it was true, and all I found were news articles praising his performance in the last debate :sigh:

I would unironically pay $15 to livestream a booze-fueled Lindsey Graham Rifftrax of the debates.

Actually more non-candidates should get in on this. I could say the same for Newt, Biden, etc. Even if they're not campaigning, donate the proceeds to the space program or charity of their choice. Win-win.

Thoughts on these line ups:

Under card:
No Graham is lame. Dude was a blast in the last debate and the potential exchanges between Graham and Christie would have made for a fun broadcast. Now we get Christie pulling bully on these Jabroni's while Huck yucks it up. Horrible stuff.

Main card:

I'm also tired of Fiorina's shtick and can't believe she's still on the top card. Kasich and Paul should stay because they're good punching bags. I like that Jeb is standing beside Rubio again but I doubt Jeb will go after Rubes this time.

It will be a good day when Bush is forced to undercard.

It might even end up being an undercard with only like Bush and Rand Paul, and they cut the time to 30 minutes.
