Occasionally, when she laughed, it seemed she was cackling at the misfortune of others. Also, her make-up was so heavy that it made her appear like she was trying to hide her age. It's also obvious that she will pivot right back to the GOP as soon as the primaries are over.

Bernie also was somewhat disappointing. He didn't handle the democratic socialism question as well as he could, and once or twice he sounded less confident or more evasive than I would have hoped.

One thing is for darn sure, the election is being decided in the primary. The Republicans are coming off as flat-Earther know nothings, fascist wannabes and obnoxious gun-toting hillbillies.
