Pete and Warren look very good tonight.For the first time in this campaign I'm thinking that the Dem candidates (except Bloomberg) aren't as weak as I assumed. Well done, folks. And yes, let's dumb the arrogant, sexist, and racist billionaire! No room for him in this party.
:lamo
Think he can recover? We'll see, I guess ...
I generally can't stand to listen to democrat debates because today they just try to out do each other with far lefty wack-a-doodle dribble. But tonight promises to be as entertaining as a roller derby battle with Bloomberg parachuting in to upset their little tea party with his big Scrooge McDuck purse. I can see loony Warren's eyes rolling in her head and arms flailing like she is planning to fly south for the summer. And Bernie will be angrier than an old man in a deli sending back a bowl of cold soup.
Well worth the price of admission. Hope to see a lot of laughs.
You know what is bad about this great debate? The three people I thought should drop out, Biden, Warren, and Buttigieg, are resuscitating. This will result in a long and bruising primary season with no majority, and a brokered convention that will divide the party. Advantage Trump.
You realize this just means he will double spending to stay competitive...

Sanders and Biden, not so much, but the former won't take too much of a hit.
I don't think Biden or Buttigieg have looked especially great, even moreso when compared with Warren.
Here is how I would rank it thus far.
1. Warren - Far and away
2. Sanders
3. Buttigieg
4. Biden
5. Klouchar - brutal
6. Bloomberg - Brutal to the infinite power
Some of us did.We should have seen this coming.

Buttigieg lost points there, and Warren earned points there.
Bloomberg's problem is he has more money than he has charm. The smugness on display in some of his answers have done nothing to dispel the notion he's a rich jerk.

Well exactly; if she was right, her base wouldn't have deemed her wrong given its partial exodus to Sanders at that time.
The prevailing take on the left at the time was that:
A: Her stated funding plan per the Head Tax would notably encourage contract work over employment.
and
B: She was waffling with a timeline and interim public option plan such that her proposed transition to MFA would be difficult if not practically impossible, and underlined her lack of commitment to it.
I think warren might get a slight bounce. Maybe Buttigieg, too.Warren thus far is a clear winner, but aside from Bloomberg getting utterly destroyed, this debate isn't going to move the needle much (unless something dramatic happens).
