Here we go!
 
With 12 candidates on stage I don't see anyone making any hay tonight.
 
Winner: Tulsi (the only candidate of character, decency and charisma)

Runner-up: Bernie (the only other candidate of character and decency)

Novelty award: Yang

Losers: The rogues gallery of criminals and liars accompanying the above three

Tulsi in white. Sanders in blue.

The rest are garbage.
 
Klobuchar should drop. Good god damn she is ****ing horrific.
 
Too many candidates on one stage, but as they announced them one-by-one, I couldn't help but feel any one of them would be better than Trump.
 
Buttigieg might be the most sensible & intelligent guy on the stage.
 
Is this a democrat debate or a Trump Anti rally
 
Yep, and zero chance.

The rabid psychopaths would be out in full force, if a gay man were running for president.

Can you imagine?
 
Yep, and zero chance.
He might get a VP nod, though. I could see a Warren-Buttigieg ticket.

Either way, his voice should be included in the new administration. When I see Buttigieg, I believe I'm seeing the future of the Dem Party and our great nation.

A woman and a gay man? I'd be surprised if the damned evangelicals wouldn't declare a new crusade.
 
Warren refused to admit she will raise taxes on the middle class. Sooner tgan later she will have to admit that. Moderators need to press the candidates to answer what's asked not go off on a tangent
 
They’re demanding an answer of her that can’t be answered with a yes or no. The expectation is ridiculous. Sanders was able to do it on Stephen Colbert, and he was given all the time he needed.

I'm fine with a tax increase if I can stop paying this asshole company and their ridiculous deductibles and copays.

I'm glad Tulsi's not boycotting the debate. After she's elected president I plan to have her baby.

About $8000 in taxes (depending on your bracket, of course) is not worse than $16,000 in premiums, copays and deductibles.
 
New drinking game take a drink anything Warren says

"Lets be clear"

I like him. He's the smartest guy in the room wherever he goes. His problem is has almost zero black support. Without it you have no chance in the primary.
 
Okay, I get that she just doesn’t want to give Republicans their soundbite, but I expected a better presentation by now.
 
Re - Warren v Buttigieg Medicare for All debate: Buttigieg is right, here. 110%

Wrong. Medicare for those who want it is garbage. The undermining by corporate america will immediately begin.

All the way or no way. I'm not willing to budge on it, personally. You do public option and the private market will immediately engage their Republican allies to work to undermine and destroy the public option immediately.

Hah!

But somehow, I don't see the Evangelicals voting against Trump no matter who is on the Dem ticket.

Re - Kubuchar: Say what you want, she seems to have sensible & pragmatic ideas. I like that!
