I expect more fireworks in today's debate, particularly from the 'minor' candidates as I don't think the minor candidates in last night's debate did anything to close the gap with the frontrunners.
 
I can't vote for any of these folks anyways. I'll wait till one emerges and then evaluate them.
 
I'm in tonight. Fireworks expected from Biden, Sanders, Mayor Pete, Harris.

I expect awkwardness from Swallwell as he panders to his one voter (himself), still have no idea how he made the stage.
 
Lot of questions for tonight. It will be interesting to see the game plan tonight for Biden, Sanders, and Harris. Does Sanders and Harris go after Biden? How will Biden respond if they do? Does Biden attempt to look past all the other candidates and focus on Trump? And can Buttigieg make an impact?

Also, can anyone else break through? Gillibrand? Hickenlooper?

Both Sanders and Harris need to have a strong night. Biden needs to appear presidential without any major blunders.
 
Joy Reid is on.


“Black black black someone needs to destroy trump. This is war”
 
Bernie slipping in that taxes will go up for the middle class in that answer about healthcare... love it.
 
I hate Swalwell but I actually want his tie and pocket square combo.

Edit, it's not a pocket square... I'm drunk already
 
Perceived value of community college is already low...now reduce the cost to "0" or in other words, "free" who will actually go to these schools? They serve a purpose now for kids to get basic credits so they can afford to go to larger universities. Can these CC survive based on the limited funding they will receive from the government under these proposals?
 
I actually agree with a point from Williamson, we concentrate more on the sick and how to treat instead of lifestyle and prevention. She kind of trailed off into the deep end and I lost track on it...
 
You lost me Mayor Pete on undocumented workers pay sales tax on the goods they buy so that means they will be covered under a healthcare plan.

Ummm, sales tax would only apply on goods that they purchase using their own funds...meaning they have a choice to buy goods. Tax payers in this country under a Medicaid for All plan is that citizens wouldn't have a choice in this matter, they would be forced to pay for an undocumented immigrants care via taxes. That's called, theft.
 
Pass the torch from Swallwell has been the most 'viral'esque line and was a point scored against Biden. Also, on the question of illegals getting insurance, watch the hands go up. Yang and a couple others checked out what others did then followed suit. Eventually everyone raised their hand.

For those interested in my train wreck posts, they are being fueled by Deep Ellum Brewing's Dallas Blonde. Very delicious and recommend highly if you've never had a six pack

Asking if someone is a citizen is "weaponizing the census"

Love the talking point from Swalwell, keep it up buddy.
 
I just noticed Yang wasn't rocking a tie. Love the casual look and think he's one of the most interesting candidates on stage for his ideas. I'll be digging into his stuff after the debate.

The real bickering is about to begin. Let's hope we don't have another mic screw up
 
If looks could kill, Swalwell would be dead after his comments to Mayor Pete.
 
Harris comes after Biden on race relations... Biden I feel had a strong response that he became a public defender and not a prosecutor (shot at Harris).

Harris bringing up the bussing issue and Biden kindly reminded that it was her own city council's decision not the federal government. Blame the local government Kamala...
