No, Hillary Didn't Win the Debate

Her opponents were incapable of the most basic forms of communication.

October 14, 2015

The media is running gleeful pieces about how Hillary won the debate. Hillary didn't win the debate. Like Romney in '12, she just had enough practice to be the most on-message candidate and didn't allow any of the attacks to rattle her.

Her opponents were incapable of the most basic forms of communication.

Bernie Sanders was agitated, ranted aimlessly, waved his hands around like a flock of startled birds, his eyes darting nervously around the room, before dozing off. He was incapable of answering nuts and bots policy questions. Instead all he could do was throw out applause lines about the "rich".

Martin O'Malley put on a strange and creepy performance, carefully enunciating his prepared speeches, bringing stunt guests (that the camera didn't show) while being unable to explain what he was talking about.

Lincoln Chafee embarrassed himself. Plain and simple. This is a guy who asked for a Mulligan on his first Senate vote and tried to bring every topic, including Hillary's email scandal to the Iraq War. There was laughter when Hillary brushed him off.

Jim Webb made sense, but this wasn't his audience or his moderator. He got very little time. Hillary Clinton got a lot of time, which helped create the impression she did well. And Webb's presentation was also awkward.

I doubt Biden is intimidated by Hillary's debate performance. There's nothing new here. This is the same Hillary debate performance we saw in '08. Obama had no trouble with it. Biden will have even less trouble with it.

Beating dorks and zombies is one thing. Taking on someone who can fake emotions naturally and doesn't stumble over his prepared speeches is another.

Hillary Clinton embarrassed herself multiple times in this debate. Her claims that she's an outsider because she's a woman and that she's different from Obama because she's a woman were huge ridiculous gaffes. She blatantly lied about her email and about Libya and wasn't called on it because none of her opponents were up to it. O'Malley is an idiot and a coward. Bernie Sanders is obsessed with his Socialist revolution. Webb was hardly allowed to talk. Chafee couldn't find his car in a one car parking lot.

"We're dependent on plant life."

We have plants now. We had plants at 350 ppm. You should be able to remember them.

"We can't for certain say how much of the last few centuries of mild warming is due human actions. "

We can tell within 5 or 10%.

CO2s warming effect looks minor at best.
What looks major to you?
