I'm playing one I call "Don't watch any political debates because it'll make you want to slit your own wrist". The rules are pretty self-explanatory.
3.) Swamp Fox - 10/29/2015
So far this one is awful...LOL..The moderators might as well just go out for some martinis and let the R's duke it out...
But it might give me something to talk about tomorrow...

4.) Swamp Fox - 10/29/2015
I have to say, though: This might have been the most entertaining debate, mostly because the moderators were so bad it got you combatively engaged with your TV set [I]("Throwing wads of paper at your screen turns out to be good exercise, the government reports[/I]"), and the candidates quickly got fed up with them and began a counter offensive.
I also thought the lead-in to the debate was so boring that I can't see why anyone would watch CNBC in the absence of a future debate, or an invasion from Mars. The talking heads had absolutely nothing valuable or even entertaining to say. Their analysis basically came down to "Each of the candidates hopes to have a good night." LOL
Good thing I had my own analysis going on. :wink

Here are the final scores for the game linked above. Somebody's falling down on the job not tallying the community words. Strong letter to follow.
The candidates and their drink cues:
Donald Trump — Best, China
Ben Carson — Washington, Cut
Marco Rubio — Future, Middle Class
Jeb Bush — Seniors, Veto
Carly Fiorina — Hillary, Leadership
Ted Cruz — Obamacare, IRS
Mike Huckabee — Clinton, Fair
Chris Christie — Fix, Government
John Kasich — Budget, Ohio
Rand Paul — Freedom, Tax
Community Words — Socialism, Trillion, Reagan (any candidates say one - everybody drinks)

Was glad to see them snap back at the moderators.

My favorite was Trump on the not-so-swift Becky Quick:

That was pretty good. I like all the candidates for different reasons. Some more than others but it's a win win.
I liked Huckabee's comment about the runaway blimp and comparing that to the government. They all had their moments.

The only problem is this, from the "Immigration" portion of the "Positions" statements [URL="https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/immigration-reform"]on Trump's own web site[/URL] where he rails against entry-level positions being given to H-1B holders:
[quote]"Mark Zuckerberg’s personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities."[/quote]
While Rubio was grammatically the direct object of that particular criticism, Zuckerberg was clearly a target as well.
I didn't watch all of it, but of what I did see I thought Cruz had the best "screw you" moment vis-a-vis the "moderators".

The blimp analogy is probably Huckabee's high point in the campaign...At least so far.
He'd be doing better in a smaller field, at least early.

BQ mischaracterized who Trump was really being critical of ("You've been very critical of Mark Zuckerberg"), and then was not competent enough to know where she had gotten her impression. She got hosed not only for not being very accurate (or too loose, however you want to see it) but also for giving The Donald some ice to skate on.

Not a big Christie fan here, but that was classic. LOL

That's true enough....and she's clearly an idiot. But Trump misrepresented the issue just as much by claiming "I've not been critical at all" of Zuckerberg...as well creatively portraying his general position on the H-1B issue.

Not gonna argue against that. Just giving Trump credit for getting his shot in. It was well-done. A thing of beauty, even...:-)
What I think of Trump wouldn't make him happy, but as far as the sizzle goes, he's got it going on...:grin:

This is the same douchebag, as Ben Carson points out, who seems afraid of Fox News, and whines about the network incessantly ...But he has company, since the entire Democrat debate apparatus runs screaming away from the possibility of a Fox-hosted debate like a bunch of little girls as well.

Make sure you watch the video on the right of the page...You can literally see the moment when Obama realizes he's about to step in it over his head, but he decides to go ahead anyway...Because he thinks he knows Americans are that phuckin' stupid...

Tonight's debates might be less entertaining, but more substantive.
I plan to catch the undercard at 7, because there's some potential merriment there between Christie, Jindal, Huckabee and Santorum, plus I think Sandra Smith and Trish Regan are oh so hawt. I made a mistake not catching the last JV session, by unconscious error. I might see if Lindsey Graham live-tweets either debate, since he's sitting out both of them. That could be a hoot.
In the main debate, I expect bumbling from Carson, bloviating from Trump, blather from Kasich, and blunders from Bush. Carly cracks a smile and Cruz crusades against the media. Rand ruminates about the Fed, the EX-IM bank, and the Constitution, and Rubio runs the table.
If Cruz and Rubio come off their scripts a little, they'll take a jump in the polls. Carly could command respect.
Key words for the drinking game are slightly changed for this round. I think Rubio could take this one:
Donald Trump — Best, China
Ben Carson — Government, Media
Marco Rubio — Future, Families
Jeb Bush — Jobs, Veto
Carly Fiorina — Hillary, Leader
Ted Cruz — Obamacare, IRS
John Kasich — Budget, Ohio
Rand Paul — Fed, Tax
Community Words — Socialism, Veterans, Reagan (any candidates say one - everybody drinks)
