The three of them did very well.

Mayor of South Bend.. basically Notre Dame City. It's not much larger than my burg and I don't think any mayor here nor there is ready for Commander in Chief. So I hope whoever wins the election asks him to serve on their cabinet or, if that doesn't happen, that he runs for Governor or Senate.

Anyhow, I did like him, just not for this cycle. It goes without saying that if he does win nomination, I would vote for him (ABT, baby).

...I missed the first out and a half of the debate, so apparently I missed his highlights.

He can do some damage and we can definitely use the seat.

dodge the taxes question. Does herself no favors there.

Think Pete went big on Beto on purpose.

Amy and Joe were calm, sensible, and showed some fire. Find no fault with their answers.

Amy did herself proud this time. She was fearless.

Not seeing much about how Biden did.. so good to know this.

I like "calm and sensible"..

that is something we desperately desperately need.

This is one of the main reasons I support Biden

Trump has messed up so many things that we need someone in there that can start the mop up and the reconstruction the first day. He has the contacts in the government to put a functioning team together quickly and restore order and confidence to the various agencies. Not to mention our allies...

Mahalo, iamateacher!

while restoring our alliances, give a strong message to our enemies. At home, Joe is a unifier and he is a healer. His plans are sound on education, healthcare, climate change, and the economy.

Still the best job-specific qualifications in the field.

Had a really good endnote as well. I'd say it was his best debate night. Amy K surprised a lot of people. She definitely had her moment. Warren had trouble sliding around the Medicare for All questions. It was the first time she really had her feet put to the fire by Amy K and Pete B primarily. It was pretty obvious that Warren is not accustomed to being challenged and Klobuchar really nailed her over the 'my way or the highway' tone.

Interesting night.

I see where Biden has the lowest amount of Million$$$$ of all the top candidates.. maybe that will change after tonight?

Joe had some fire in the belly this time out. I was good to see and I suspect I wasn't the only person who noticed.

Time will tell.

Here's HOPING!

His knowledge of FP was head and shoulders over the other candidates. Made me proud to be an American... which I’ve been in short supply these past few years

People paying attention are very tired of EW running away from costs for mfa.

I was surprised and very worried when she said we need to pull out of the Middle East altogether...with what just happened in northern Syria? What is she thinking?

The twitter feed I was just reading was so depressing.. they were all mad at Biden!

Mahalo!

jobs. She flat out said, that's not it. I imagine that was a moment of confusion for the viewers. We see it every day. How can you deny it?

Maybe he felt the need to remind us that he served, but since Beto was surely not questioning his physical courage, he overreacted a bit there. Still, yeah, those three.

Also thought Harris was getting some of her spirit back.

She was really strong talking about reproductive rights.

It takes a lot of courage to come out while being Mayor among other things.

I don't like the territory he is carving out; he doesn't work for me. All those who claim to be more sensible don't really go where most of the public wants to go, imo. Whether the public will get mislead by pundits and the election process on this, I can't say.

Warren stood up to a lot of attacks. Her answers on Medicare 4 All and the wealth tax were right on policy even if they didn't work as well given that she had to field front runner attacks and everyone wants the less important question about taxes for Medicare for All answered. I though Bernie did well tonight and I don't usually say that.

Harris did well on a lot of her answers and didn't get much time. But she doesn't quite nail it for me overall and I want her to. But it must be hard not getting the time in the debate to make your case.

Joe did well on some things. He screwed up by trying to claim credit for Warren's Consumer Agency. That was dumb and sexist and inaccurate.

I liked things almost all of them said, and sometimes they collectively fleshed out for the public the issues at stake. I liked those times in the debate. The gotcha questions annoy me.

I didn't like how she insinuated that not being for medicare for all was being a sell out.

was saying hey, was with ya on that. And you did a good job. Then she answered as a big, pointed
deal that she was grateful to Obama.

I didn’t think she did well with criticism.

didn't want to give VP Joe Biden any credit?

The arrogant mansplaining moment

He is running against her. And yes, he was for her plan and that is what he was pointing out. Guess if a man challenges a woman, he is arrogant and mansplaining. Don’t think Trump will be
very nice to her.

to speak to facts without the insulting "mansplaining" meme.. or "arrogant".. it does Not work here.

I'm quite certain EW can handle the facts.

I agree that Amy was very effective. I really like Klobuchar
