Like ragging on Hillary for something her husband did in 1993.
It's all just static to my ears at this point. I don't know how you guys watch this stuff.

Yes. And, even though Bernie had a very good debate, this was a good example of Hillary doing something much better than him - I mean as a candidate, not necessarily in actual policy work. She personalized the experience. She spoke directly to the woman, she spoke slowly so that the reporter had time to translate her response to the woman in real time (no way he was able to get in every word Sanders said in his response) and she showed empathy. I have no doubt that Bernie has enormous empathy for the woman as well, but he didn't show it. He barely addressed her and pivoted almost immediately from talking about her experience to speaking in much broader, general terms. It's very possible that Bernie would have the most humane immigration policies out of any candidate - including Hillary - but he didn't communicate that well and he didn't personalize it.
As for how we watch this stuff, Namo. I dunno, I'm not a sports guy. The horserace is, in a way, my sports. I find the mechanics of the process; the strategy and execution; the media narrative all fascinating on its own even if it doesn't really affect my choices as a voter.

What I still don't get is why Jorge Ramos and Maria Elena Salinas kept switching languages as well as the interpreters doing the voice-overs. I'm certain they used various speakers for voice-overs for both Ramos and Salinas. As soon as my ear was attuned to one interpreter providing voice-over, in the next segment it would be a different speaker. Ideally, one interpreter providing voice-over would have been paired with one of the panelists preferably with gender alignment which was not always the case tonight. As someone who speaks both languages, it annoyed me when the translation in my head was ahead of the interpreter.

^ Yeah, Univision did a terrible job on making it a bilingual experience.
BTW, in case you're wondering why they're bothering catering to traditionally conservative and Republican-leaning Cuban American voters...

I'm a huge sport enthusiast. This election cycle has produced the mutha of all contests on the GOP side and a highly entertaining one on the other.

I've started watching more intently purely so I have more of an understanding of what's going on. Not sure how well this strategy is working for me, but I've been listening to all the "experts" or pundits (pundants is in actual fact not a word) - and I believed them when they said Hillary had it locked up. Or how Trump would never get the nomination. I'm still an ignoramus compared to some of the heavyweights in this thread, but I've got to start somewhere!
After flicking to Donald Trump's town hall during the commercials, though, I think I'll reconsider. Back to Charlie Rose (hottest guy on TV) I go.

Bernie was on FIRE tonight.
I was surprised when Hillary said that her predecessors also did the same thing RE: her email server activity, and thought it was a bit unfair that she got caught up in this scandal if that was true. But turns out the claim wasn't quite true. Disappointing, Hillary.

Disappointing, Hillary.
I do not believe you are disappointed.

After last night's Univision debate, it's somewhat obvious that Hillary and Bernie are sick of the debates and of each other. They could use a lil' timeout.

I was surprised there was a debate just three days after the last. But this one was at least notable for its inclusion of the Latino community- the question from the undocumented mother was moving.
But I agree- no more debates for a while. What's left for them to say?
I also don't need to see Sanders trying to flag down a waiter at Katz's every time Hillary speaks again.

I loved the way Bernie pronounced it "Moose-lims" like some new Ben & Jerry's flavor.

I agree with Kad- at this point, what more is there to learn about either of these candidates? I think debates are generally good things, but who really is surprised by anything either of them are saying at this point? Granted, the competition is getting closer, but I feel like the debates are just turning into petty sniping on behalf of both of them, and it just feels tiresome.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Sanders is set to lose every state on the 15th. Unless there is a major (unprecented) upset on his part, perhaps this will mark the beginning of the end (if it wasn't already when he first started 50+ points down, haha).
