We are not talking big picture? wth. It's really

quite sad. I know they are trying but it's basically a cluster.

Are there more debate?

Initial gut reaction. Bloomberg gone.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Poor debate showing is not going to stop his ads, I don't think.

And more people will see his ads than saw this debate.

Bloomberg has been owned tonight and exposed, but more people will see his commercials than see this debate or even read the about it.

the irony is that we have to play by these rules until we are powerful enough to change them.

If we eschew the rules so much as to keep losing the general election to republicans, then we never have power to change the rules.

Not sure Bloomberg gets us very far in the direction we want to go ... maybe just stops our race to disaster ... so I'd like to see a better candidate but if Bloomberg turns out to be the best we can do, ugh, but better than where we are today.
