Isn't there a huge difference between violating U.S. trade policy and supporting lifting the Cuban embargo?

Sure but I don't think that fact matters much.

That was a hanging curveball for Rubio who had been getting hit with Trump stuff all night. He finally gave Rubio a shot to turn the tables and highlight how Trump and Murphy agree on a key issue.

Marco DOMINATED the debate.  Not even close.  Murphy didn't even know where the Peshmerga were.

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

Marco slammed the door on Patty Boy tonight.

So Murphy is the Democratic Party's Sarah Palin since Palin thought that Africa was a country, not a continent.

Yeah, this exchange is worse than the other one I posted...Murphy was thoroughly outclassed by Marco on foreign policy...

Always thought Murphy was a weak candidate (although miles ahead of Alan Grayson) and tonight further proved it.  Also doesn't help that I dislike him personally.

Didn't watch, but I know it's treason to say that Rubio didn't win. He's flawless, after all.

[Vosem]

Reading articles about the event, Rubio clearly won. Just like he won their first debate, incidentally.

Flawless means that all he has are flaws?  I didn't know that. Because that's what describes Empty Suit (and empty head) Marco.

[Landslide Lyndon]

Has anyone watched this thing or are you going by news clips and clever quips?
Because if you do the latter then perhaps you should have a word or two with Vice-President Lloyd Bentsen.

I only got to see the last 30 minutes or so, mostly the foreign policy section and closings. I'm not sure if it was different in the first part, but from what I saw, Murphy's performance was an embarrassment. Doing everything you can to link Rubio to Trump probably IS the right idea, but Murphy's knee-jerk reaction of "but you support Trump" even to substantive answers made him look, somehow, like even more of an empty suit with no ideas than Marco Rubio.

I guess this just confirmed for me that Murphy is trying hard to be the most generic D of all generic Ds and to never say anything about himself or what he believes in, but that's just not enough to get it done in Florida. I'll go into the voting booth securely knowing that (somehow) Marco Rubio is the candidate of substance(). Murphy and the Florida Dems are blowing a very winnable race with a terrible campaign and the DSCC decision is looking better and better.

You dare to question flawless Rubio? Also no timestamp on my quote :/

I said that in the first debate thread and people kind of ripped me but it is true, Murphy makes Rubio look like the candidate of accomplishment and substance.

He isn't even good at linking Trump and Rubio, luckily he had Obama down in FL to stump for him. At least he can lay down a competent attack.

Maybe after Rubio wins reelection the red avatars will admit that nominating Fratrick was a bad idea

Honestly, Rubio would have beaten any Dem Nominee.

I don't have any polling on this but just based on who she appeals to and her name this race would be a tie at worst for Gwen Graham.

True but the fact that this moron is the candidate democrats hand picked for the Senate race does not bode well for them finding a candidate for governor in 2018

It's not like Grayson was any better.

[Landslide Lyndon]

Murphy is overrated, but Gwen Graham wouldn't have done THAT much better, lmao.

Me thinks Graham and the Democrats have chosen well not to run this year. Beating Rubio was far from a slam-dunk and winning the governorship in 2018 is much more important.
