11. Early in every debate Sanders and Warren try to hog the response time

Somehow the moderators allow them to get away with it. I always know that Biden and Klobuchar will fall several minutes and multiple responses behind.

It levels out later but those early responses are so memorable and set the stage toward the remainder.

No matter what Sanders or Warren are saying I always think less of them due to the monopoly desperation and refusal to stop at allotted time. Biden had some great related barbs tonight.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
