 Not your type.

Eric chimes in with another direct shot at Bernie the Old Millionaire..."pass the torch"

Contrary to what Bernie claims, if the Supreme Court reverses Roe v. Wade, his Medicare for All does not restore any rights.

And it's years too late for him to be so concerned about the make-up of the Supreme Court. 

i can't decide if Marianne Williamson looks more like Marlo Thomas or Tina Louise.

Bernie is a caricature. 

It's a FREAK SHOW.

ms. Williamson has a very odd voice. 

So let's recap at the 3/4 mark.

Mayor Pete : A

Kamala Harris : A

Biden : B-

Gillebrand : B-

Bennett: C

Hickenlooper: C'mon

Andrew Yang: F (why are you here?)

Williamson: F

Bernie: F  

Swallwell: F

 Eric is out. He is worse than Beto or Delaney.

Eric,

I hate to break the news to you but if you think that you are going to go up to Montana and get people to hand you their guns, um, good luck.  Let me know where you want to be buried.

A question for Eric. Buy back assault weapons.

Good luck!

Freaking Mayor Pete has it all.   Every answer is right on target, delivered PERFECTLY and thoughtfully.

Brilliant down the line answer from Buttigieg. Who knows who Trump will piss off over the next year or so? We are going to have to apologize to the world 

No change in the ratings.   Mayor Pete and Kamala Harris both lead by a mile.

 Agree.

Mayor Pete's response to the "who to first fix international relationship with" was A+.

 Great minds think alike.

Andrew Yang finally speaks.

Here are the people who should be dropping out of the race tonight:

Swallwell

Williamson

Yang

Sanders

Hickenlooper

Bennett

Gillebrand

Epic disaster for Bernie tonight.   

winners over two nights: Warren, Buttigieg. Harris, Booker.

Well in the typical course of these things, money will start to dry up for the candidates who did the most poorly in the debates. But even if Sanders' performance was as abysmal as Mr Sbenois purported it to be, he's not going anywhere any time soon. The money will keep coming in for him and he'll continue to garner media attention. 

Someone said it in one of these threads that he'll hang on at least until the first primaries. 

So my point I guess is that he gets a bye in this first debate. Even if he loses some ground he's not going to back out.

Just saw this on the Twitter:

------------------------

The last two minutes in summary: 

Swalwell: Biden, you are old. Gimmie the torch.
Biden: You try to take this torch from my cold dead hands.
Bernie: YELLING 

[Everyone starts yelling]

Kamala Harris: I will take the torch, now. Thanks.

[silence]

Interesting takes here. I was reading the NYT commentary and they saw it as a big win for Harris, a big loss for Biden, stasis for Bernie and a mild loss for Buttigieg who they thought failed to break out.  Obviously a loss for the remainders.

It was more like

Harris: we are sounding like babies. Hush up. 

Bernie saying good things in interviews. He is being good at identifying ageism. 

Chuck Todd = F minus minus
