    Biden doing much better tonight.
    biden 2020!
    He’d have my vote. After these two debates, he’s the only one (of the people polling highest) that I can stand. Booker, Warren, and Harris just aren’t for me. I do like Mayor Pete though. What’s everyone’s thoughts on Biden/Pete ticket? Haven’t really seen that proposed. I’d like it. Pete vs. Pence is a fun matchup. Some history there. No love lost for sure. 
    I can’t see Joe winning the nomination and not having a women or minority as VP. So that won’t happen.

    Ive been wrong before though :)

    Doesn't it seem like Tulsi is the one keeping close to Joe?

    Good Lord, please let the screaming two oldsters lose traction.
    I thought tonight was better for not having them on the stage.  They will prove to be unelectable

    Does it seem like Warren and Bernie have a truce or a partnership? Highlights and reading I've done seem to indicate that not only are they staying away from attacking each other,  they're also providing mutual cover.

    Hard to say because they really are in the same lane. Same could be said of Biden/ Bennett, Biden/Gabbard

    I was thinking that too. I'm almost wondering if they've got a pact to be each others' running mates if the time comes.

    Loved Bennett tonight. Reasonable, pragmatic, good communicator, seems relatable.

    They are in the same lane,  so you would think they would try to distinguish themselves.  Maybe they are so close ideologically,  that any counter would be self inflicted wound.  
    I do think Benjs is on it,  where they promised to be positive, and then the VP is the consolation.  Who knows.  But I don't think either of them can win the nomination if they both stay too long.  

    I think Tulsi is angling for VP though,  and is hitching to Biden.

    Gabbard thing is very interesting. Very. She seemed a little nervous tonight, maybe something bigger on her mind. Def think Bernie/Warren is in play.

  • "Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
  • Gillibrand feels like a mom from a 1980s ET/Goonies-esque movie. And Biden gives real answers. It's like Gillibrand takes on the role of a journalist against Biden here - and he gets the chance to answer. Not often that is seen on US cable news.

    Presidential candidate Jay Inslee commends on the Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg.
    In connection with the Democrats' debate in Detroit, he pointed out that Thunberg is the obvious Nobel laureate.

    "To me, she is the most inspiring person in the world right now," he says.
