I'm half tempted to watch for the lulz, but I'm afraid I might stab myself in the forehead with a fork out of frustration, or dislocate and eye doing eye rolls.
So thanks for volunteering to sit through the whole painful/hilarious thing. Better you than me. I'll wait for the 5 minute gag reel on the intertubes later. If any of them says anything incredibly stupid (an inevitability, I suppose), it will be all over the internet with minutes, thus saving me from having to watch the entire thing.
Is this really the best possible field of candidates? Can anyone not be aware that this list of men contains nobody but sociopaths, psychopaths and assholes? Is this really the world we live in? Jeezis this is depressing.
Just watch it, sans sophomoric pre-debate propaganda, keep an open mind, and vote accordingly. The more our citizenry and culture acts like grown-ups (which means ditching the race card among other "cards") the better our political choices will be - maybe not for 2016 but in the future. It's all our fault - that goes for asses and elephants.
I'm curious @6 - in your opinion, which of the Republican candidates is acting most like a grown up? Professional clown Donald Trump? Moral scold Rick Santorum? Bacon makin' Ted Cruz? 'Cause what I see is embarrassing immaturity from wall to wall.
@14: You know, I really don't have a rebuttal for that except that it is not just FOX but also Twitter et. al., and that the current GOP is like you say but the need and desire for a party on the right side of the spectrum is by no means obsolete.
Let's see, there are 17 republican possibles and 6? Democrats. Trump will step on his necktie, jeb will will miss the important stuff like immigration and abortion because of stupidity, which leaves Hillary and ?
@18: The most horrifying reality is that the sophomoric Donald Trump is echoing the sophomoric popular culture. I dare say that the late and great William F. Buckley would concur.

Someone draw-up the brackets; I got Walker making it to the final-four.
Which, of course, means he'll never poll out of the low single digits. Eh.
Oh, wait.
Damn.
Trump has turned this debate into his new reality show.
