Curmudgeon’s Corner: MST3King the Second Republican Debate

On this week’s Curmudgeon’s Corner podcast, Sam and Ivan do it again, laying down a commentary track for the second Republican debate. Yes, the whole thing. All three hours of it. We kibitz as Trump and Carson and Bush and Cruz and Rubio and all the rest argue about the issues of the day. Oh, and of course, Fiorina. Ivan’s nemesis Fiorina. Ivan always has nice things to say about her. You’ve probably seen the debate, now listen to our take!

16:43:05 Reading – Biden may not decide soon (Edward-Isaac Dovere) http://t.co/ieTvecDFEt
16:48:44 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 16:48:23 @abulsme still a bit early for the EC have you thought of adding a page for which candidates are ahead in state primary polls?
16:49:48 .@DaveMc99TA I built out EC first because polling for that was well underway and I had a bunch of automation I wanted to build. in reply to DaveMc99TA
16:50:39 .@DaveMc99TA I will be doing the primary races, but not polls. I will be doing delegate tracking. Hope to have that live by November. in reply to DaveMc99TA
16:51:37 .@DaveMc99TA Iowa isn't until later of course, but there are already a bunch of "superdelegate" endorsements. So I am actually late already! in reply to DaveMc99TA
16:52:24 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 16:50:01 @abulsme not easy to find this info on one page: http://t.co/ZjFiAE0JzE
16:53:39 .@DaveMc99TA True. A good source of this polling data outside of National/IA/NH/SC is hard to find. in reply to DaveMc99TA
16:54:14 .@DaveMc99TA Of course, reason is results of first states scrabble everything after, so early polls of other states even less meaningful. in reply to DaveMc99TA
16:54:37 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 16:52:05 @abulsme ah good to know.. Should be changing on the GOP side be interesting to track it in reply to abulsme
16:57:16 .@DaveMc99TA Yes. The delegate races should be interesting. At this point I'm just slightly upset at myself for not already having that up! in reply to DaveMc99TA
16:57:25 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 16:56:11 @abulsme to get idea where Hillary is stronger and weaker than national is interesting to me heh but still need to wait for Biden anyway. in reply to abulsme
16:57:48 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 16:57:26 @abulsme and Trump is ahead everywhere except TX and OH be interesting to see when he starts to drop in other states in reply to abulsme
17:02:30 .@DaveMc99TA Alse interesting re Sanders. Probably overrepresented in IA/NH, but does influence of early states diminish nat Clinton lead. in reply to DaveMc99TA
17:04:52 I tried, but after rec commentary track for full 3 hr debate last night, didn't manage to get CC podcast out this morn. Will be out tonight.
17:05:02 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 17:04:30 @abulsme Sanders is a wildcard.. Does he lose support after debates coz of image & socialist label or gain after winning w/bandwagon effect in reply to abulsme
17:06:22 .@DaveMc99TA I had previosly thought debates would just solidify Clinton so long as she was polite to the also-rans. in reply to DaveMc99TA
17:07:54 .@DaveMc99TA At this point tho I think they are dangerous for her & more people will say, "look, there really are other choices". Then jump. in reply to DaveMc99TA
17:08:04 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 17:06:32 @abulsme my bet is still on Biden coz elected Ds won't vote for a socialist and someone needs to challenge HRC & so far OM is a non-factor. in reply to abulsme
17:09:56 .@DaveMc99TA I think Biden is hoping she collapses 1st. But if he gets in now it will be a real race. Ppl really want a viable non-Clinton. in reply to DaveMc99TA
17:10:13 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 17:08:18 @abulsme there is a reason her camp doesn't want debates.. Must have polling showing she could lose support when Ds see others are running in reply to abulsme
17:10:32 .@DaveMc99TA Almost certainly true. in reply to DaveMc99TA
17:10:44 Retweeted @DaveMc99TA 17:08:56 @abulsme heh exactly in reply to abulsme
18:21:46 Retweeted @marcoarment 16:53:33 I’ve pulled Peace from the App Store. Why: http://t.co/ir8FMr1qEO
