Live Blog: New York’s Primary Democratic Candidate Debate (CNN PLEASE stop this now!)

Good Evening and welcome to the HooDoo that I do so well  to get this to be the last of these things!!!

Tonight’s debate will be broadcast by CNN at 9 pm EST from Brooklyn.  It’s the Brooklyn Finger Wagger vs. the C-Town Policy Wonk!  How nasty will the pokes and punches get?

… with the Democratic race dragging on into the spring, fresh tensions are bubbling up to the surface.

Pointing to issues like Clinton’s ties to Wall Street and her vote for the Iraq War, Sanders said over the weekend that when it comes to Clinton’s judgment, “something is clearly lacking.” The senator also went on to tell CNN’s Jake Tapper that he found Clinton’s recent remarks about young voters — in which she said they sometimes buy into incorrect information and “don’t do their own research” — to be “a little bit condescending.”

Things grew even more heated when the Sanders campaign put out a press release questioning Clinton’s credibility this week — an attack that was met with ferocious pushback.

“Let’s be very clear. This is a character attack. This is exactly what @BernieSanders pledged to his supporters that he wouldn’t do, ” tweeted Nick Merrill, Clinton’s traveling press secretary.

The primary will be Tuesday, April 19th and the last poll shows the momentum is in Clinton’s column.  Here are this weeks latest polls via RCP.  Notice the all have Clinton way way way up!!!

Wonkette even agrees with me.  Please let this be the last one!!!!  I can’t take his stump speech any more. I can’t take the finger wagging. I can’t take watching Hillary try to act dignified during all of this!!!

I also can’t take any more of Wolf Blitzer!

But, here I am and here we are.

WHOA HEY it’s been a minute since we’ve had one of these debate-styley things! But things have been getting super UGLY in the Democratic race, so they need to do this again, obviously. Bernie was like “I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL ON ANY OF THE FOLLOWING DATES!” and Hillary was like “I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL ON A DIFFERENT DAY WHEN YOU ALREADY HAVE A THING, COME AT ME, BRO!” Seriously, that is how it happened, according to Politico. Anyway, they all moved their hair appointments around on their Google calendars, so they can debate in New York City tonight.

So, this one is going to have a lot of stuff thrown at Bernie, I guarantee.  First, there’s the “corporate whore” kerfuffle.  Then there’s the law suit against Bernie’s Buddies in Gun Manufacturing by the parents and relatives of Sandy Hook Elementary School Victims.  Then, there’s the comment today about how Martin Luther King was a class warrior instead of all that racism stuff in his speeches and the marches and all that.  Then there’s Bernie and Jane’s taxes which we never See, Jane, See. 

So, I’m sure all that will be on the agenda tonight.

Meanwhile, I just bought some wine and I’m hunkered in here!

Hang in there!  If the polls are right, the Atlantic Seaboard is about to deliver us from any more of these “debates”.  Meanwhile, I have the next little doll all lined up!!!   So stay tuned …
