Excuse me, but who the fuck is Di Blasio to be posing questions to other candidates? No other...

....candidate has done that, he's done it twice tonight.

It's reminiscent of Rick Lazio demanding that Hillary Clinton sign some idiotic "agreement":

sure it helped contribute to his loss.

de Blasio doesn't seem like a winner, either.

5. It was Rudi who was supposed to run against HRC in that race.

Rudi had to withdraw when his affair was discovered, when it was also learned that he was using the NYPD to "guard" his girlfriend, and when he announced on TV that he was getting a divorce. His wife and young children learned the news along with the rest world when Rudi said it for the microphones.

I was living in upper state New York at that time and actually got introduced to Hillary and took her pic... on her listening tour.

My six year old daughter was with me wearing a "Girl Power" tee shirt.

Hillary told her

Girl power? We need more of that.

....and she followed up with a repeat of the question, claiming he didn't answer it.

He spent the entire night attacking other Democrats, and then when he was asked what he thought about impeachment for Trump, he says Democrats can't just spend their time talking about impeaching Trump -- excuse me? The dip**** that just spent all his time attacking Democrats just told us that we shouldn't spend our time attacking Trump? Screw this guy. I see why New Yorkers hate him.

14. If only ALL the candidates had a chance to do what di Blasio did, then it might be a real debate.

The format of the debate as it is now is fucking horrible. I don't care for diBlasio, but I'm glad he attempted to make it a real debate rather than a fake one as it is now.
