Watched the first one, and part of the second, but that's it. You can only stand so much crazy, and this years clown car is full of crazies!

They can't stay on topic or give a direct answer to whatever they are asked.
And they all seem to be permitted to butt in and speak at length at will.

and I'm glad. Part of me kind of wanted to watch, like suspecting your neighbor was conspiring to make the 7:30 train crash in our neighborhood, you might want to bear witness. But also knowing what an ugly-demon-nightmare-event-from-hell it actually would be... couldn't bring myself to go there. And I would never willingly visit a web site from that entity. Creepy things follow you home when you leave.

Besides, my neighbor made me watch the last one and it gave us headaches.

I'll enjoy the commentary online tomorrow too.

I generally like to keep an eye on the opposition but this bullshit with cavuto and bartiromo so clearly in the bag with the candidates was more than I could stomach.

That being said I didn't watch just because I like circuses that are fun and not ones full of scary IT clowns.
