Related: About this forumThe BEST debate recap from last night :-)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/compost/wp/2016/03/10/the-washington-postunivision-democratic-debate-abridged/Clinton: Thank you for having me. Ive been looking forward to this debate.
Maria Elena Salinas: Secretary Clinton, why dont people trust you?
Clinton: Maybe its because I just said that I was looking forward to this debate, which is either a bald-faced lie or a sign that I am some kind of a sociopath. We had one of these three days ago. Why would we have another one now? Did you just want to torment me by putting me in another situation where a man makes unrealistic promises and waves his arms while I have to smile and look unruffled, all the while living with the knowledge that somehow he was what the people of Michigan wanted, not me? What does he have that I do not have? Does this answer your question?
Salinas: Maybe?"
...
"Tumulty: Florida is going to disappear if climate change continues! Here is a map!
Sanders: Oh no! How awful! Do you know what will fix this?
Clinton: Let me guess. A complete political revolution?
Sanders: Thats exactly right! A complete political revolution! That will fix everything! Millions of people are going to stand up and tell the fossil fuel companies where they can shove it!
Audience: YES THIS SOUNDS VIABLE!
Sanders: DO YOU HEAR THE PEOPLE SING, SECRETARY?
Clinton: And the same goes for your single-payer plan
Sanders: SINGING THE SONGS OF ANGRY MEN!
Clinton: Were just going to not worry about the Republicans who want to repeal Obamacare, because we will have a guaranteed political revolution that will fix all of this. (pulls out a flask) Sure. Great.
Ramos: Senator Sanders, here is some grainy old video of you saying that Cuba is great. What do you make of this?
Sanders: Are you sure thats not Bruce Rappaport?
Ramos: Im sure.
Sanders: Drat."

I didn't watch the debate but this doesn't surprise me at all. I know the column is satire but obviously based on the reality of the proceedings.
