1. She seems to have picked up a few DU fans, too,

for reasons that so far have escaped me.

[hlthe2b]

5. She had good "presence" on the stage. I will give her that. But, someone needs to ask her

about Assad and Putin and her long-standing contempt for Obama before rolling out the red carpet, IMO.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. And how it is that her fans include Tucker Carlson, David Duke, Richard Spencer,

and Ann Coulter.

[hlthe2b]

10. Yup... Add that to the list.

[Hoyt]

14. Well, Tucker Carlson is a fan of Warren's "Economic Patriotism." I despise him.

[dixiegrrrrl]

47. Her friend Matt Gaetz sang her praises today.

"America should watch @TulsiGabbard at 7pm cst on @cnn. You won’t agree on everything, but Tulsi is very smart, a patriotic veteran and has meaningful contributions to make to America’s foreign policy. Democrats could (and probably will) do far worse."

Guess they figure we aren't smart enough to see what he is trying to do.

[brush]

39. A DINO alert is in order. Guess she fools a few people.

[lagomorph777]

2. That's hilarious.

No effing way. And please. Drudge? Might as well believe Assmussen.

[Paladin]

3. Sounds like bullshit to me. (nt)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Well, it's Drudge, which specializes in that product.

And while we're on the topic of poo, she gave a post-debate interview to Breitbart.

[hlthe2b]

7. But of course she did...

[flamingdem]

6. .

[peggysue2]

8. I thought her answers last night were very good

She definitely clobbered Tim Ryan. However, this morning I see she went straight to Breitbart for an interview and Republicans are lavishing praise and Hallelujahs.

What's wrong with this picture?

Everything.

[Paladin]

12. She's a clear and present weapon of the right wing, now.

To hell with her.

[ValidateThis]

11. Lol

Thugs love her because she’s putin’s Darling and this year’s Jill Stein. They know she’s a disruptive, dangerous bigot who appeals to the most addled of counter-cultural leftist types who have no idea what average American voters are like, or don’t care because they are just as totalitarian as the far right.

Puke.

[madaboutharry]

13. She comported herself rather well last night.

If you didn't know about her or her strange ideas and positions, she came off as a rather pedestrian congresswoman.

[hlthe2b]

16. yup...

she had more poise than just about anyone else up there. So, we may see some being taken in by the "package" and ignoring her past (and some of her current) policy stances.

[walkingman]

15. This is a good example of the media in a large part controlling our election. Many people wait until

they hear the talking heads tell them who they should like or dislike. According to everyone on TV last evening they dissed Gabbard. We live in frightening times and I fear our very Democracy is at risk. I don't agree with the "fake news" chant of Trump but the influences of foriegn nation via social media, and also political ads seem to have a huge impact. To me that means that the %1 really do control our outcomes. I hope I am wrong.

[jalan48]

17. She spoke well and looked good (relaxed) on stage IMHO.

[DURHAM D]

18. So Bannon instructed the Russian trolls

where to go and what to do.

Pretty funny.

[Honeycombe8]

19. Well....it's Drudge. nt

[hlthe2b]

20. and "The Hilll" propagating this...

[Dr Hobbitstein]

21. Had a post hidden last night about her and her coziness with

the right and Putin.

Seems her alert trolls are here.

[asiliveandbreathe]

25. Among others...need to be pretty savy ....n/t

[Skittles]

27. doesn't that drive you nuts

when you get a hide for STATING THE TRUTH?

[Dr Hobbitstein]

31. Yes. And it was after the OP was locked for being in the wrong forum. nt

[Skittles]

37. it's strange

how one can be on a progressive board and not be able to take criticism of their candidate.....yes they can be trolls but all too often they are not.....it's pathetic

[Skittles]

49. hmmm

[Dr Hobbitstein]

50. I'm shocked. nt

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

22. Two words. Manchurian candidate

[The Blue Flower]

45. My thoughts exactly

Not only was I not impressed, my red flags went up.

[saidsimplesimon]

23. "Friends don't let friends read The Hill." or Drudge

This thread will self delete in...

[The Liberal Lion]

24. Since I was censored here on DU the last time I criticized Gabbard I'll just say

"Uhm, no!"

[underpants]

26. And she went on Breitbart after the debate. This is pretty obvious

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

30. People on YouTube "cough" young turks comments

Say it was only because they don't support war either

[underpants]

41. Young Turks

I've been rebuffed for this before but I thought TYT was outed as having taken Russian money.
Katherine Van Whatvaever at the Nation too.

[Iliyah]

28. Oh snap

LOL

[saidsimplesimon]

29. No need for me to pile on.

Why is she running for any office? I'm not the brightest bulb in the fixture.

[radical noodle]

33. LOL! Of course!

[dawg day]

34. Notice who are cheering her on--

Drudge
Coulter
Bill O'Reilly
Steve Bannon

I am not criticizing her or them... I'm just wondering.
Why would they be pushing her, if she's the next best hope for the Democratic Party they hate?

I don't know. Anyone understand this?

[PADemD]

35. Tulsi was poised and acted presidential.

She also won our local newspaper poll in a PA county that Hillary lost to Trump.

[BannonsLiver]

46. And that was no accident, either.

Will leave it at that.

[dem4decades]

36. Rush was also mentioning the Drudge poll and her winning.

I guess we should let Republicans decide all our candidates.

What's with her, why is she the fuckard's choice?

[underpants]

42. Yeah I caught a bit of his show today - first time in a long time

He said clearly the big loser last night was Warren.

Uh huh.

[dem4decades]

44. When i have my wife's car i sometimes tune him in. I can listen for about 30 seconds, then i can f

Brain cells being drained from my body and turn it off quickly.

[onecaliberal]

38. I don't really care, do you?

[democratisphere]

40. Objectively she had a great delivery.

Joe Biden is the most logical choice to be President. He is highly qualified above all others.

[Peacetrain]

43. Don't think so..

[nini]

48. The right wing is doing exactly what I expected with her

Sorry.. I don't trust her farther than I could throw her.

[Gothmog]

51. Russia and Putin have been busy

[Takket]

52. facinating.... and i wonder who the drumpf kids think won!

[Demsrule86]

53. Haha. That is funny.

[MFM008]

54. Nope

Her and Gillibrand are hard no's

[blm]

55. Drudge instapoll shows Gabbard wins second debate by a landslide, too

😁
