Moderators sucked

It was Moderates ganging up on Bernie as expected

Bernie took a lot of punches and came out somewhat scathed. He came back decently, but could have done better at seperating himself from Castro, etc.

Bloomberg didn't get off. He was attacked again, especially by Warren. She might have gone a little to far with it. Bloomberg is still hurting from last debate, though he actually didn't do to terrible tonight.

Pete continued to sound like a scripted automaton. He did have some strong moments.

Elizabeth seemed the most coherent out there

Biden had a good showing which he needed for the final push in SC

Klobuchar was good, the most relatable...I like her emotion.

Steyer did well but, I doubt it gains him any votes
 
It will be interesting to see how Bernie does Saturday after tonight
 
Interesting debate, but not as much fun as the last one.

I guess Biden won? He was the angriest, and that must count for something, right?
Moderators sucked. Couldn't maintain control, and didn't have anything useful to ask when they did get a question in. Half expected 'what is your favorite color?'.
Tom: Irrelevant. Amy: Irrelevant. Although I started out liking her, she now irritates me. Bernie: doesn't like getting booed. Who would have guessed?
Liz: Strategically dumb to just try to repeat the prior debate. Pete: I think he was the only person that smiled the entire night. Not a game changer for him.
Bloomberg. Anything is an improvement after an 0-82 season, but he shouldn't try to make jokes. It's like Biden trying to talk about Shelley who sells sea shells down by the sea shore. Not going to ever come out right.

Would you like to get booed?
 
I just saw some highlights, but I enjoy how desperately protective and possessive of Obama's legacy Joe Biden is. If anyone else mentions Obama, he comes in like an avenging angel. Sanders mentioned how Obama made the same observation about Castro doing some good things regarding education and Biden, in the fury of righteousness, barked, "President Obama was abroad and doing a townhall and he never approved of the Castro regime!"

There was also a moment where Steyer was talking about how the President did something or other, I don't remember what, and Joe was about to explode on him, but realized just in time that Steyer had been talking about Trump not Obama.

The establishment blowhards who worship Obama attack Bernie for saying essentially the same thing Obama said.



It shows how little they care about the truth. They just want to tear Bernie down by any means necessary.

Not sure what you have against Pete. He seems to me like an island of sanity in the midst of a muddle of angry blather.

In a situation like that, the moderators should have the ability to simply shut off the candidates' mics and tell them "we will turn them back on when you can behave like adults".
 
I was out bright, well, OK, early handing out California for Warren brochures to early AM BART commuters.

I think @SlyPokerDog and I should moderate the next debate. He can keep candidates in line and I can think of a lot of great questions.

Why don't we just run for president?
 
Quite a bit of difference between some of these folks. Kinda like the difference between water and beer....

From what I've seen today of last night's debate. I don't think you could do worse if you tried.
