I think you rather missed the point there... namely that your claim that "Clinton seems to do nothing else but shout during the debate" is pretty silly when we can contrast Republican debates that really have been little more than shouting with the Democratic debates. If your claim were even remotely true, there wouldn't be such a contrast between the two parties' debates.

No I am not missing the point...you are twisting the subject to suit your usual one sided view of the GOP.

I started talking about Bernie being accused of being dismissive of Clinton. When she was shouting and interrupting him.

No wonder everyone (apart from Boiler ) who comes into these types of threads criticizing the Dems...gets fed up and walk away.

There was no "twisting the subject" on my part. The contrast between the two parties' debates is pretty stark in terms of the demeanor of the participants. Even GOPers are pretty concerned about that. There are plenty of things to criticize Clinton for but, really, you're clutching at straws if you think that "she does nothing else but shout during the debate" is one of them.

Nice try, but pointless I fear.

Let's be fair here... by saying "well at least it's not as bad as the GOP" still isn't a good look.

Anyway, I've been listening to the Fox townhall last night, and I have to say I'm impressed with both the candidates and the questions.

Actually, I said something a lot stronger than that.

Agreed. I think Fox News deserves a lot of credit for the way it's handled the Presidential debates/townhalls. And both Clinton and Sanders deserve a lot of credit for debating issues rather than shouting at each other.

Is he out of his mind, the guy is indeed an utter looney!

"Recently, Trump has starter asking voters to raise their hand and pledge support to him..... They're raising their hands in the form of a vote, not in the form of a salute, we are having such a good time" Trump said. Seriously dude!

Yeah...what on earth was he thinking of when he pulled that stunt.

I think he's gone into Kamikaze mode.

Either that or "all publicity is good publicity" mode.

If Rubio does not get out after tonight..he will be commiting political suicide in my opinion. I seriously doubt he can even win Florida. He was a dead man walking after he turned the debate into a stand up comedy routine.

Clinton demolishing Sanders in another southern state - Mississippi. Sanders doing very well in Michigan. It would be a big coup for him if he won there.
