I like Klobuchar. But I am wondering why she's shaking.

It seemed particularly noticeable tonight.

If it's a medical condition, we need to know.

If it's too much caffeine, she needs to cut back.

20. She did get rattled last night. But there was plenty of shaking in some earlier debates.

I think one of the SNL skits even riffed off it.

I think she's just nervous up there sometimes, and sometimes the body does what it wants.

3. A lot of times I've thought she was on the verge of crying but clearly that is not the case.

In every debate, not just this one. So I wonder if it's nervousness or being jittery.

Not allowed time to answer her questions.

Pete's interruptions reflect poorly on him.

No need to, he'll just tweet his childish insults and his ignorant base will cheer him on.

her cool when he pushes back. She is too thin-skinned for me. Trump would 1000 times worse than Buttigieg as well.

why Warren inhales audibly, Biden trips over his words, and Bernie is hunched over.

(No, I don't.)

I think she has adrenaline flowing. Most of us would.

Can you imagine her against bully trump? I mean, it could potentially work out if she has a severe episode and he is too brutal, even for the deplorables, but I don't know...
