Quick rundown of the candidates' debate performance last night:
- Warren: Comes out of the box with a piledriver on Bloomberg. Later, "you get a punch, and you get a punch, and you get a punch..." to all her stage-mates... but never really takes her eye completely off her stage-neighbor, Bloomberg, and continues to pound away at him furiously. If you thought she had stopped being a fighter, you thought wrong.
- Sanders: Same message as ever. Was called a millionaire socialist with 3 houses as an insult and spent time explaining it, which was unfortunate but minor in the grand scheme of things. Sanders didn't go into the debate needing a big win though since he is in the lead and has momentum... all signs point to nothing having changed.
- Biden: Had a surprisingly strong night given his performances for the last few months. Not sure it was enough to salvage his campaign though.
- Buttigieg: While everyone else starts by beating on Bloomberg, Buttigieg begins an attack on Bloomberg but before he actually lands the punch pivots and attacks Sanders.
- Klobuchar: Came out swinging against Bloomberg but then spent the rest of the debate driving back and forth between Mediocreville and Disappointing City... speaking of which...
- Klobuchar & Buttigieg: Proved they're totally fine bickering and slamming each other repeatedly to the mat. It's almost like they don't like each other much.
- Bloomberg: Horrible, just horrible. Showed that he's Trump with a "(D)" next to his name.
- Steyer: Tried to say he was the good kind of billionaire... wait, no, he didn't make it into the debate.
- Gabbard: Sir Also-Not-Appearing-On-This-Stage.
