CNN announces Democratic town hall (tonight's the night!)

Washington (CNN)—CNN announced it will host a Democratic town hall event in South Carolina on Tuesday from 8 p.m.-10 p.m. ET.

The event allows Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who will take the stage first, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who will appear last, the opportunity to answer questions from Palmetto State voters, who go to the polls on Saturday, February 27.

CNN's Chris Cuomo will moderate the event, which will be held on the University of South Carolina's campus.

The events will air live on CNN, CNN International and CNN en Español and be streamed live online on CNNgo.

And he will dig if you don't answer the question.

I don't care who his father and brother are!

the economists that have disagreed with Bernie's plans, he says.. "Let me guess, they came from the Clinton campaign?"

Moderator was going to deny that, but Bernie cut him off and wouldn't let him talk Says like 100 support his plan. Too bad he fails to mention that is like 1% of the number of economists in the U.S.

DID refute that statement, talking over Sanders to do it.

I'm not impressed. He talks a good circle talk doesn't he?

Sanders took the high road regarding Hillary.

Unfortunately, he is definitely not considered a role model.

Hillary is on now!

Already getting louder!

Sanders was a little more human and personal tonight. It was nice to hear him talk about the obstruction Obama has faced, and I thought his answers on leadership and spirituality were heartfelt.

Clinton was really great--good variety of questions. Her answers ranged from the personal to the big picture and were filled with details. One of her best nights yet.
