I am watching the Debate and haven't seen anything amazing about Marco tonight. He can't even win his own state. 

LMAO at Carson: "Can someone attack me"?…..LOL….he is being ignored once again….

BTW…Wolf Blitzer who I can't stand cause he thinks his mouth don't stink is a horrible moderator….he can't control this debate….it is awful.

I agree. I find Ted Cruz to be unlikeable and very untrustworthy. I don't find him to be the least sincere. I think that he is the worst person left on the Republican side.

I literally laughed at loud after he said that. He really is being ignored, the moderators skipped over him regarding multiple questions. I have forgotten he was in this debate half the time it has been going on.

CNN is talking about how great he attacked Trump. I find that laughable. Cruz wasn't that great either yet CNN is clamoring he did well.

 

Cruz to Trump: You're losing in the polls to Hillary. You can't even beat her.

Trump to Cruz: Well I am beating you badly so you sure don't have a chance if I am losing to her…..LOL

Oh they're in bliss. Breathlessly quoting Glenn Beck (oh that liberal media), saying he gave the best debate performance of anyone this whole campaign season (which is like giving a prize to the man who only kicks himself in the ass 599 times instead of 600), and dredging up Rocky clips (the ideal for the middle-aged pasties who make up the Beltway) to prove their point.

 

If he still doesn't improve any in the race after tonight, we're going to see grown men weep. I'm not kidding.

It's not about Rubio and it hasn't been for awhile. He's not the concern. They're desperate to prop up Rubio because they (and the Republican establishment) cannot conceive of facing the admittedly horrific possibility of Trump taking the nomination. Rubio is not a superstar and I promise you absolutely everyone knows that now, no matter what they pretend on TV - he's just the last clear chance.

 

Trump has to be stopped and I think he will be either in a general election or here, but I feel absolutely zero sympathy for the GOP and the conservative end of our media, who fanned the flames of the most ignorant bigots in our country and enabled the disgusting Tea Party movement until they engulfed the entire party and made something like Trump possible. They should have seen it coming.

 

And for the record, if you have a perfect storm of Trump and the Supreme Court on the table, we will very possibly take back the Senate. The GOP knows it will be a bloodbath. That's another reason they're trying to stop him. If Trump is the candidate the fallout for the GOP could possibly fracture them for a generation.

    • They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.
    • ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.
    • Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.
    • Yes, they are all on contract. Next.
    • I also never understood Alex's friendship with Sonni or keeping the secret of Marah's paternity.  Not exactly heartbroken about Ms. Sally being ushered to the Hereafter.

        I'm sorry but I'm a glutton for punishment. Would love to see this woman OWNING the canvas. Telling off Leslie who tells her she's the head b!tch.
    • And in case anyone is confused; Rusty was hired by HB to work undercover and infiltrate some gang sabotaging Lewis. 
    • Emmerdale shares most nominations for the British Soap Awards with EastEnders, 13 each.

    • The Dallas finale was the highest-rated episode since October 9, 1987 (Gone with the Wind).

Prior to the finale, the last Dallas episode to finish ahead of a new episode of The Cosby Show was February 22, 1985 (Shattered Dreams).
    • 40 years ago this month, the best and most pivotal television season of the 1980s came to an end. Here’s how the rookie breakout and the four soaps wrapped up the season. The Cosby Show – Cliff’s Birthday (season 1 finale, May 9): Clair and the children surprise Cliff by planning a birthday celebration around a Lena Horne concert. Dallas – Deliverance (May 10): Bobby seeks evidence to free Jenna. The Ewings go confidently to court. Mitch asks Lucy to move in. J.R. wants Sue Ellen hospitalized. Dynasty - The Heiress (May 8): Krystle learns Daniel is dead. King Galen courts Alexis. Amanda sees Michael with Elena. Sammy Jo learns Krystle will handle her money and is furious about the decision. Knots Landing – One Day in a Row (May 9): Ben aids in Karen's search for Val's babies. Mack replies to the governor's offer. Ruth uses Abby to break up Laura and Greg. Falcon Crest – Cold Comfort (May 10): Fugitive Lance desperately searches for Lorraine, who lies comatose in a San Francisco hospital. Robin returns with startling news.   Dallas – Swan Song (season 8 finale, May 17): Jenna's release from jail depresses Pam. Sue Ellen thinks she saw Dusty. Donna tells Ray about her pregnancy. Cliff consults an attorney about an annulment. Lucy and Mitch remarry. Sudden tragedy strikes Bobby. Dynasty – Royal Wedding (season 5 finale, May 15): Sammy Jo makes her roommate look like Krystle. Elena reassures Amanda about her upcoming marriage. Terrorists come for the royal wedding of Prince Michael and Amanda. Falcon Crest – Confessions (May 17): Melissa confesses to framing Lance. Pamela gives Maggie proof that Richard bribed Judge Holder. Connie reveals her love for Chase. Knots Landing – Vulnerable (May 16): Ruth wants Abby to break up Greg and Laura. Karen makes a breakthrough in her hunt for Val's babies. Joshua hampers Val's recovery. Knots Landing – The Long and Winding Road (season 6 finale, May 23): Abby fears being linked to the disappearance of Val's babies. Laura leaves Greg. The Fishers are determined to keep Val's babies. Falcon Crest – The Avenging Angel (season 4 finale, May 24): Lorraine dies. Angela throws a victory party. Cassandra's mother arrives. An explosion rips through Richard's house. 1984/85 was the season the primetime soaps pulled out all the stops to out-do each other and everything culminated in the spring. May 1985 was the zenith of primetime soaps as a genre.
