Friday the 13th. could be bad news for one or more of the candidates who participated in the Democratic Party debate last night. Once again, I felt overwhelmed by the number of persons who met the criteria to participate in the debate, the merry-go-round format of questions and answers at dizzying speeds. I haven’t watched the post-debate analysis today so I have no idea who the media thinks won, lost, or was neutral in the outcomes of the performances. I’m sure I’m not a good judge because I confess my favorables floated among all the candidates with the same dizzying speeds of their answers.
I’ve decided to whittle my choices for the next debate using the non-scientific method of a name game. I am assigning point values to my reaction of the names if they were President with 1 point being the lowest and 3 being the highest. I invite you to play along in the privacy of your own home. Then we can compare our results. Isn’t this fun?
President Amy – 1 point
President Cory – 2 points
President Pete – 3 points
President Bernie – 1 point
President Joe – 1 point
President Warren – 2 points
President Harris – 3 points
President Yang – 1 1/2 points (he gets the extra half point for sending me $1,000 a month)
President Beto – 2 points
President Castro – 2 points
Now about the score. Looks like Pete and Harris each had 3 points. Cory, Warren, Beto and Castro each had 2 points. Yang had 1 1/2 points. Amy, Bernie and Joe each got 1 point.
So, according to my name game poll, my next debate would inclue Pete, Harris, Cory, Warren, Beto and Castro. Say goodbye to my bottom vote-getters.
Hm. I detect a pattern here, but I’ll let you have it your way, too.
Really, the only name I hope never to see with the title of President again is Donald Trump. Please.
Have a great weekend. Stay tuned.

The mend is definitely happening, but Lordy, it sure does seem slow to me. I am weary of angst over my knees – both original and bionic!! 🙂

The woman who owns the farm where my horses are had a knee done 2 years ago. I watched her run after a horse today like she was 18. She my age. I’m hobbling along. Damned knees!! Nothing but trouble.

I’m betting early and often on Warren. She’s the only one I feel can beat tRump. I can’t express my feelings about the Orange Fool in public. Wouldn’t be prudent. 😉

I wish I could give more points to Yang, but one. Zero to Castro. One to Joe. Maybe two to the rest. No 3s. Big sigh.

My own non-scientific opinion (which carries zero weight since I’m a Canuck) is what a delicious thing it would be to have a President Castro in the Oval. Hee hee.

I agree. Pete is impressively presidential.
