But our base rejected them pretty much completely. We do have Dr. Carson here and a guy whose both names end in a vowel, that's new for us, and of course Senator CRUZ aaaaand .... uh..... 7 really white guys.

You have the rich guy who wants low taxes for rich people, the son of a rich guy that wants low taxes for rich people, the guy with a high school diploma that wants low taxes for rich people, the guy that sells magical shake cures for diabetes that wants low taxes for rich people, the retired brain surgeon that in his spare time wants low taxes for rich people, the Canadian avid children's book reader that wants low taxes for rich people, the guy Trump wants to deport back to where he came from who wants low taxes for rich people,the self-certified doctor with a passion for the political philosophy of rape filled novels who wants low taxes for rich people, the jerk because every debate needs a jerk who wants low taxes for rich people, and some dude that you won't vote for and we won't ask any questions of because we already know he wants low taxes for rich people. The 2015 Republican presidential debate. Live, now on FOX. Miss it or risk a slightly higher marginal tax rate for rich people come 2017.

Not a knock on one of my favorite movies, 12 Angry Men, but these guys are angry. I expect the debate to be an opportunity for these guys to show that they're more pissed off than each other. Trump, for example, holds a lot of liberal ideas but the tea partiers love him because he's angry. Every time you hear a right winger say why they like trump, it's because he's angry.

I'm wondering if they will "engage" with one another during the debate. The two of them IMHO are the most volatile and I doubt that either will be able to reign in his ego and temper.

Pass the popcorn!!!
