Looks great - but no Biden and no Bernie. sandensea Jun 2019 #1

Two nights, with stars for each night. Very unlike the GOP's "kids table" in 2016. It's fair. nt Hekate Jun 2019 #21

Not really fair. Warren is the only top candidate tonight. nt pnwmom Jun 2019 #115

Nobody else appeals? She's really rocking it tonight! Hekate Jun 2019 #125

I was just referring to poll numbers. In terms of poll numbers they didn't do a good job pnwmom Jun 2019 #153

Love Tim Ryan. Don't get why he's so low Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #279

He has good positions; I think many remember his attempts to push out Pelosi, though hlthe2b Jun 2019 #282

That's looking pretty smart now Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #295

He nailed a major problem here. Dems need to take what he said seriously. emmaverybo Jun 2019 #286

Beto had good gun and climate answers essadaw Jun 2019 #285

He is dignified and has tons if heart. He's not a yelling a-hole Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #289

agreed Skittles Jun 2019 #352

Deblasio is acting like an a-hole digging at Beto every turn Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #287

DeBlasio comes across as an angry older white man. BadgerMom Jun 2019 #294

Yeah MustLoveBeagles Jun 2019 #312

I hope someone is clocking each cadidate's talking time True Dough Jun 2019 #288

De Blasio can't be too far behind True Dough Jun 2019 #292

Hey ! Took me a while to find this - just to brag :) - CNN had a time poll - and Booker Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #364

de Blasio was second last in minutes on the microphone! True Dough Jun 2019 #366

i agree. I just had a flash - how did they measure the time. Like if someone was just Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #371

I am surprised to say DeBlasio and Booker did well tonight. SunSeeker Jun 2019 #291

Ryan completely screwed up his answer about withdrawing from afghanistan. drray23 Jun 2019 #297

Impeachment now !!!!love you Beto!!!! Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #302

Yes Beto is doing great now essadaw Jun 2019 #306

Out 4 me Tulsi,Delaney,Castro,Booker&deblasio Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #311

Why Castro and Booker? nt LAS14 Jun 2019 #369

Just did not like their style - their rude interruptions. Although both may be smart - Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #370

I think Delaney is a clown mtnsnake Jun 2019 #313

His voice is like a cartoon character Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #315

I think they bdamomma Jun 2019 #316

Tulsi gabbard just leveled Tim Ryan tonight. Ztolkins Jun 2019 #321

Honestly, she was the most poised on the stage tonight... hlthe2b Jun 2019 #322

Just because he thinks differently is no reason to be rude and interrupt Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #323

Did not give me a good impression of her. She enjoyed his getting mixed up too much. emmaverybo Jun 2019 #326

I didn't think that's what she was doing Ztolkins Jun 2019 #328

Please, read up on her and Assad first. herding cats Jun 2019 #333

They just mentioned it on MSNBC Ztolkins Jun 2019 #335

Make your own informed choices. herding cats Jun 2019 #338

Okay, I have read. Ztolkins Jun 2019 #358

Yup... That's why I can credit her with a good performance, yet maintain my strong skepticism. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #336

Oh, yeah. Her defense of Putin and Assad in tandem sets extremely sour in my belly. herding cats Jun 2019 #339

I was very surprised by how well Tulsi G did. She owned Tim Ryan. Her facial expressions Cousin Dupree Jun 2019 #330

Jeez at least a bunch of zingers. He's like a treasure trove. Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #357

I think Julian did surprisingly well...his responses were to the point.... LeftInTX Jun 2019 #353

Except he attacked and interrupted Beto. Bad form. Laura PourMeADrink Jun 2019 #355

General opinion seems to be that Castro, Warren and Booker were the winners Clash City Rocker Jun 2019 #362
