Democrat debate on MSNBC:
In case you missed it, it was the least serious Presidential debate I’ve ever seen. Here is what was discussed……
How the dems plan to Raise taxes,
Give driver’s license to illegal immigrants,
get out of Iraq,
Socialize healthcare,
UFO’s, Halloween costumes, legalized marijuana, and Hillary doubletalk.
Who won? The GOP!

This article is a week or so old. I can’t recall if it was before the Chinese dishwashers started making maximum contributions to Hillary, or after.
