Sanders, Cruz to face off in debate over future of ObamaCare

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) will go to battle next week in a debate over the future of ObamaCare.

Sanders and Cruz, who both ran for their party's nomination in the 2016 presidential race, will square off in a debate airing on CNN next Tuesday, Feb. 7 at 9 p.m.

The debate will be moderated by CNN’s Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. The debate comes as Republicans in Congress craft a plan to repeal and replace former President Barack Obama’s signature healthcare law.

A promo for the debate aired during CNN's town hall with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and news quickly spread on social media.

Hope Ted brings his safety goggles - I'm sure Sanders plans on poking at him with that gnarled forefinger of his.

I'm going to watch this for the sheer fun of seeing that old socialist be used as a Swiffer mop.  Most of what comes out of his mouth doesn't make sense, so once Cruz gets hold of him it should really be entertaining.

More like Gonzaga vs. Pepperdine last weekend...

The No. 3 Bulldogs are the last unbeaten team in the country and looked every bit of it in a dominant 96-49 victory over outmanned Pepperdine.

Gonzaga pushed its record to 22-0 (10-0 West Coast Conference), and after No. 1 Villanova and No. 2 Kansas both lost last week, it could lead the AP Top 25 for only the second time in school history.

Loved what Cruz said about the Democrats, "Trump Derangement Syndrome".

They could make this a  pay per view event and I'd still tune in!

Nah!  It will be boring as hell!  Sanders will bring a knife to a gunfight!

I think I am going to DVR it so that I can savor it on my own time....with an adult beverage!

Bernie is boxing out of his weight class in fight with Cruz.

Wow.  Look out Jack Handey.

This will be fun to watch, I wish it were more like an old-school pro-wrestling match, where they got entrance themes. 
Bernie comes out the Russian anthem, just like the Bolsheiviks back in the day, while Ted Cruz comes out to Hulk Hogan's "Real American".  I could totally get behind that.

He had better wear his Depends.

I thought Cruz's showdown with the Sierra Club was quite entertaining ... I expect the same type of showdown with Sanders.  All this is of course contingent upon how much the questions are skewed by the moderators.

I think the poster was referring to the Supersoaker toy.

Is there another source for this?  I tried to set up my DVR last night and it wasn't on CNN's schedule.
