BREAKING: Cruz and Sanders to debate Obamacare on CNN Next Tuesday

[ProgressiveCanadian]

This forum has proved that VA has the worst Democrats in the country.

Great honer!

Bernie's gonna get slaughtered. This isn't a primary debate where he can resort to his 15-second sound bites.

Could CNN not have found any other Dem willing to do it?

Dude Bernie is way better then at this then straight debates

Nah, I think Bernie is good at connecting with normal people in a town hall setting, but when thrown into a real policy debate with someone like Cruz, he's gonna look like a deer in the headlights. He just has very shallow positions, and when prompted to elaborate on them, he often got exposed by Hillary during the primaries.

I think Bernie is the wrong guy for this because he doesn't have any interest in strengthening the ACA, and while I actually agree with his POV on healthcare, you can't defend Obamacare while saying it needs to scrapped in favor of single-payer.

Lol what planet are you living on? Cruz is going to get destroyed by Bernie when he presses him on letting 30 million people become unninsured with no plan to replace. Cruz is also much more unfavorable then Bernie.

Man you gotta love Bernie! Too bad most hackish Democrats on this forum were blinded by their Clinton obsession to realize what a good general election candidate he could be.

If someone tries to use the "electability" argument during the 2020 primaries, we should all laugh in their faces.

Ironically it was them pushing he most unpopular Democratic candidate in US history just to lose.

Bernie just whispered to the moderators to ask the name of the woman who asked the question while Cruz was speaking.

OOOOMMMMGGGG what a scandal!!!!

This debate has something that was completely missing from the Presidential general election. Discussion of issues.

Not that hard this time with no Trump. Sanders and Cruz are both awful senators with awful ideas but they at least know their issues well enough.

No Clinton either, all she had were platitudes.

She didn't have people call Melania a rapist or threaten to jail Trump.

Both candidates were terrible picks by their party members, Clinton had paid trolls...I really don't see how you can defend that.

Platitudes like free tuition college and medicare for all?

Where did she support that on the campaign trail? She obviously didn't express those issues as vigorously as Bernie is tonight.

Are you still on that overblown "correct the record" BS? Just move on and stop trying to pour salt into still open wounds.

Correct the record producing trolls has been proven. If you have links disproving that fact be my guest.

So Ted Cruz has not answered any question tonight and no plan has been given. It looks like they want to repeal and run.

That's not how burden of proof works.

You deny these facts as well? Plenty of evidence has been proven, all it takes is a little research. Sadly i trust you can't since you were one of the blinded Clintonites on this forum back in 2016.

[ProgressiveCanadian]

Ted Cruz won.  He gave actual facts and stats on why Obamacare is bad, while Bernie just tried to play to emotion, with no real substance.  And, this closing speech is an outline for the replacement.

...and Cruz had no replacement plan.

[ProgressiveCanadian]

More debates are a good thing, however CNN's unwillingness to challenge Cruz on obvious lies throughout that debate were cringe worthy.
