Bernie took their endorsement and money.

I have respect for anyone who takes on the hard-line reactionary right.

The cluelessness of Big City gun-grabbers is astonishing.

He's the only one who will have budged the needle after this one.

O'Malley the clear winner of the night, with strong passable performances by the other two.

Check the channel......you might have been watching tonight's episode of the X-Files.....with that assessment, you surely weren't watching the Town Hall Forum.

Of course, the X-Files fortunately enabled me to catch the entirety of the town hall. Sanders was great. I think O'Malley was great. Hillary had a good answer to the "who was your favorite previous president?" question.

But, I heard the most honest in-depth discussion on the ISSUES from Sanders, and also some of this from O'Malley. I heard a lot of "I - I - I" and "Me - Me - Me" from Hillary Clinton and a much narrower frame that hardly touched the same level.

I was particularly interested in tuning in for any change in delivery (from anyone). Frankly, no. It's always shaken out this way.

We are very lucky to have people like Clinton, Sanders and O'Malley running for president.

Well, to be honest, I haven't seen much about Martin, but social media can see through the rigged softball questions she got versus the grilling Sanders got.

But you have to admit, there were two people who were really on their game tonight. I'm totally HRC, but MOM kicked some hind quarters.
