GOP Sat Debate

[WanderingWinoZ]

OK, who wasn't going to watch & is now going to watch b/c of the SCOTUS issue??


US!!  I've been hearing lots of soundbites so far repeated from Cruz so far (at least on CNN). Wonder what the reaction of the others will be & if they think Obama should just sit around for the next 300+ days...

Sitting around doing nothing is a position congress finds natural

[earlgreyhot]

Is it going to be streamed?

I want to watch. I think this will be Trump's downfall.

[isabel]

I'll be following along with the thread, but probably not watching. DH will have our alma mater's hockey game on and I know he'd be really irritated if I tried to take over the tv for that.

[josieposy]

We will probably miss a portion of it unless we can catch it on the radio. I forgot we have to pick up a dining table for my sister who is moving this week.

Preibus was on CNN saying all we should be talking about is Scalia's legacy, and that it was "too soon" to talk about the politics of it.

Guess he should've checked in with his candidates first.

[simpsongal]

I'll watch as much as I can take - god I miss booze.

[WanderingWinoZ]

i'll stay awake as long as I can, but 3MONTHOLD!!! bleh...I'll be glad when the newborn phase is over & sleeping (semi)normal resumes again

[WanderingWinoZ]

I mean, I'd LOVE...
but what makes you think this??

[pixy0stix]

I'm out and won't be home until it's halfway through.

Opening with scalia....in a moment of silence.

Do your ears hang low do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie them in a bow?


I sincerely can't help it.

[josieposy]

I'm in the car (not driving because that margarita I had at dinner was a little strong). It's on CBS radio.

Or did they always have lights?

I laughed at that. 

[One Girl In All The World]

Oh fuck you kasich

[ESF]

Signing in.

H and I are in a New Jersey hotel room, fresh off a family event.

They don't sell alcohol in this damn Fairfield Marriott so we will see how it goes.

[One Girl In All The World]

Wait, someone let Carson write a book on the constitution?

[taratru]

I'm not. I'm watching West Wing instead.

[emilyj]

I'm watching.

I made it to Kasich before yelling "That's not how this WORKS!" at the tv.

That has to be illegal.  

Further, you are not permitted to be absent on days when something with this sort of impact happens. 

[josieposy]

The bullshit is strong tonight.

You know these fuckers, YOU ALL KNOW, if a R president were currently in office, they'd be cheering him on to nominate ASAP.

Grump basically said just that. 

Eta: trump lol

[karinothing]

Who cares if it has been 80 years? How many times do lame duck presidents have chances to appoint Justices? It isn't like every time a President is a lame duck some Justice dies. STUPID
