Did you folks even know there was going to be another D debate? The Republican debates are well noted but not so much the Democrats. In any case:
ZitatStill can't decide if you prefer your Democratic candidate hopelessly idealistic or boring and practical? On Thursday night you'll get a chance to see Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders face off yet again, just a week after their last debate. At this point you may feel like if you've seen one debate, you've seen them all, and we can't promise you that Clinton won't declare she's a "progressive who gets things done" as Sanders pivots back to his gripes with Wall Street whenever possible (in fact, we're almost 100 percent positive that those things will happen). However, last week's seemingly unnecessary MSNBC debate turned out to be one of the best of the 2016 race so far, and after Sanders beat Clinton by 22 points in New Hampshire, they have a lot to talk about. Here's a guide to get you up to speed, and be sure to tune in later for Daily Intelligencer's liveblog and complete coverage of the debate.
When and where is the debate being held?
Thursday at 9 p.m. EST at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Why is this debate being held?
This is one of the original Democratic debates, not one of the four debates added last week. Yes, it's hard to believe that the DNC scheduled a debate for a weeknight, but the GOP had already called the Saturday of Valentine's Day weekend.
How can I watch it?
The debate will air on local PBS stations and you can stream it on PBS.org here. CNN will also simulcast the debate, and stream it on CNN.com.

I mean canary yellow? It looks like a rain slicker.
She's about as fresh as Big Bird too. Old ways. Like the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over expecting different results the next time.

According to THIS WEBSITE the total NH Primary votes on the D side (two top vote getters) was roughly 250,000 votes. On the R side - adding up all the candidates - the number was slightly less than that.
So let's get this straight - in a state that has the motto "Live Free or Die" - an avowed socialist (actual Marxist) and a criminal who is a socialist got as many votes as the Rs?
THAT is the story of this election. We've seen this coming for years - now it's here. The takers DO outnumber the producers.
And NH needs to change its motto to just "Die".

They talk about how unfair the electoral system is by overriding the popular vote, but the primary vote between Bernie and Hillary was 60/38 and this is the headlines about the delegates.
Last night Pat Buchanan was on warning that this anti-establishment, populist uprising from both parties could result in massive revolt if the party bosses don't heed the voter's will.

In addition to the successful long march through institutions by the cultural Marxists, this can be attributed to flooding the country with denizens of the third world who have no experience or knowledge of traditional American culture and ethics.
For a good while now the majority of illegal aliens and legal immigrants come here because our big centralized government gives out better bennies than theirs, not realizing that in the long run nothing is free.
HUD has a mandate to ensure 'diversity' in every nook and cranny of the US.
