Dems in array.

HUGE #'s for the #DemDebate last night. Looks like 19.7 million on NBC and MSNBC combined. Final # may fluctuate a bit, but it's a new record high for a Dem debate, beating last June's.

I was going to bed right as it started and before I could shut the tv off the fireworks started (one minute in). I couldn't tear myself away. Within a few minutes I got on all of my social media feeds and told everyone they're missing a donnybrook. All of us had running commentary on it, as more and more people jumped in.

Last night's debate blew up online within in the first 15 minutes. It was insane. I compared it to the Democratic debate in South Carolina 2008, but last night was better.

Dems need more of that kind of massive viral moment this year.

As such I got to bed way past my bedtime but worth it.

I think Biden and Warren did the best and I would prefer that they do the best in the polls and at the ballot box as well.

Warren? Not even a scratch. Bloomberg should have been practicing for weeks before, just in case he makes the cut. Mayor Pete got Amy'd, Sanders held his own, and Biden did just fine, maybe enough to stop his slide. We'll know soon.

Politics ain't bean bag.

Whatever came up Trump would use.

Get used to it.

I am so proud of my not perfect but awesome candidates.
