Only two candidates stood out tonight, Sanders and Warren!

[peoli]

Both were clear, strong and articulate and made me proud to be a Democrat

[onecaliberal]

1. Biden did great!

[TDale313]

12. Biden had a good night.

As well as Sanders and Warren. I think Bloomberg, Amy, and Pete had rough nights.

[cilla4progress]

26. I'm right there

with you!

Pretty universal, I think.

I was shaking my head because there are so many good choices! Hard to know how to win!

[emmaverybo]

27. Absolutely. And he brought up guns. Never lost his cool. Sharp. Definitely tonite made the case

for how his experience prepares him to deal with some of the crucial issues, but he wasn’t arrogant about it.

[msongs]

2. yes but turning purple is not a good look nt

[still_one]

3. I thought it was red?

[PatSeg]

13. Very red

Uncomfortable to watch.

[sheshe2]

23. It was. nt

[still_one]

24. +++

[sheshe2]

25. ...

[sweetloukillbot]

30. I see what you did there nt

[still_one]

33. I didn't see the debates, and was only reading the comments here, and in one of the debate threads

they indicate the color, and I was effectively asking for confirmation on that description

[dware]

4. ......

This is a joke, right?

[aikoaiko]

5. I think Bloomberg "stood out" in a most unfortunate way.

[relayerbob]

6. Disagree on Sanders

He repeated himself over and over.

Warren did great.

Bloomberg is out, thankfully

[PatSeg]

15. Sanders tends to revert to

his stump speech during debates. Very redundant.

[yaesu]

18. Bloomberg played rope a dope, he survived with no KO, he will fight on

not my primary choice but we haven't seen the last of him.

[relayerbob]

20. I don't think he'll leave right away

But then I don't think he's really in it for the victory.

[TomCADem]

29. Warren Roasted Sanders On His Unwillingness to Provide Details

Regarding his healthcare plan. Warren actually has a plan that pencils out, and she has defended it. Bernie simply refuses to answer questions regarding how to make his plan work.

[apcalc]

7. Biden/Warren very good, Bloomberg/Sanders bad

[AkFemDem]

8. Huh, I didn't see that at all. Warren and Biden were the clear stand outs...

And I’m team Pete so it hurts to say that

Sanders was lost in the abyss.

[yaesu]

9. I would have to add Biden to that list. nt

[CalFione]

10. Yikes. Bernie was awful. Liz was good, though.

But Joe was the best, by a good amount.

[Happyhippychick]

11. It was Sanders worst debate yet

[Callado119]

17. Yup, the op has on some serious rose colored glasses...

...sanders was awful..Warren had some moments but looked desperate with her hand up all night

[lunasun]

14. Yes those two and Biden also imo . Those three were it for me

[Cosmocat]

16. Meh

EW was desperate but it seems to have played well.

Biden was good Biden.

Pete was the only one who didnt lose his $hit on anyone.

Top three.

Bernie was too angry.

Kloubochar did not handle being challenged well at all.

Bloomberg was loathsome.

[Laelth]

35. Pete did very well, as usual.

Bloomberg clearly was on his first debate stage. The other candidates were on their 9th. It showed.

-Laelth

[Renew Deal]

19. lol, Good. Let them split the vote

[Squinch]

21. I thought Joe and Liz did best. Sanders did not do well at all.

And as for Bloomberg... Well, I'm back to undecided.

[myohmy2]

22. yep...

...they would make a hell of a team...

[Walleye]

28. We could do worse. Than Biden/ warren

[Happy Hoosier]

31. Sanders was same ole, same ole...

Lots of shouting, waving arms and the occasional porky pie.

[peoli]

36. But are you able to hear what he stands for?

[TheBlackAdder]

32. Who didn't do well: Bloomberg totally flopped, Buttigieg alienated and Klobuchar was off her game.

[peoli]

37. True

[ancianita]

40. Klobuchar got nailed on the insufficiency of her healthcare plan. The moderators targeted her for

a gotcha question on Mexico, and Warren backed Amy up with the claim that gotchas are unfair about anyone who might forget something. So it was as if the mod tried to score a cheap point on Klobuchar, which was the stupidest thing any moderator's done in any debate.

[ancianita]

34. Biden, too! They were the best three, imo.

[StevieM]

38. I missed a few moments of the debate.

Joe Biden said something in his post-debate interview about Sanders wanting to primary Obama. I didn't hear exactly what he said.

Did Biden, or someone else, bring that up during the debate?

[ancianita]

39. What? I didn't catch that, sorry. I don't recall anyone bringing up anything about that.

[wisteria]

41. I don't agree. Biden stood out as Presidential.
