She's masterful.

I don't think Bernie even sees that as part of the Presidency.

She did very well. She and Sanders are relatively comparable on domestic issue abilities.

She blows him out of the water on foreign policy.

There were a few Sanders sentences that frankly meandered and were indecipherable, or warped back to "Noun, Verb, Income Inequality" when it made absolutely no sense to do so.

And Sanders? That finger shaking? No. Just no. Do not do that to me. I am not seven years old.

Overall, I give her the nod, but don't think this was a game changer. What we'll see is another slow erosion of support for Sanders in NH.

She is by far the BEST presidential candidate in this entire race. She is the most prepared and by far has the most experience. I like Bernie, I really do, he is nice and passionate about his beliefs I get it...but it's crystal clear to me that he is not fit for President. He would be like a Jimmy Carter...who I admire, but do not think he was a very effective President.

I don't understand the huge following for Sanders, and to be quite honest...it scares me.

It's loud. There's a difference. Every national poll shows strong Clinton support and weak Sanders support. It's simply unfortunate that the two first states are not very representative of America on average.

so we can watch it together. He should be home any moment.

When I look at the GDP, they make it seem like Sanders did extremely excellent....
and that she was terrible.

Guess I'll judge for myself....

Sanders can do absolutely no wrong, regardless of what it is. If he pulled out his dick on national television, they'd praise its length and thickness...then go off on Hillary supporters for being shocked over him doing it.

I had to think when I last heard someone in government dust that one off and put it in play.
