Fk. Biden just said parents should put to record player on the their kids at night... in a question something about reparations or something
You misunderstood what he said!! Biden did a pretty good job tonight!!
Castro did a good job! But I don`t think anything changes as far as front runner and those behind the front runner!!

Honestly I zoned out after a bit and was just trying to understand wtf he was talking about.

I missed part of the debate, but I've caught Biden reminding us just how old he is. It's not helping. At one point he was talking about going to be a public defender when King was assassinated....

Overall, I'm not sure what we're getting out of this debate other than serious questions regarding the front runner.
I'm seeing Warren as the front runner at this point.

Could be but I don`t think that the American people are ready for a woman president -- I think if Warren is the nominee it is a win win for Trump!!

Just saw a clip on NYT, I don’t like Castro at all. If the Dems elect him it’ll be Trump for four more years.

all i saw were two old white dude who have been in government for 30 years each and have not done shit, a old woman who seems so out of touch with reality she is just absurd. and a few fillers who some want to be king by dictating a bunch of illegal EO;s, take guns, and give free programs. is this the best the Democrats have? we already know who will run against Trump.

Every one is telling really good personal stories right now. These are normal people, not billionaires or people born into wealth but people who faced adversity and normal everyday American people problems.
our last two presidents were spoiled rich fuckers.
ONE of them used his position to learn more and better humanity, the other did pretty much the exact opposite.
They got elected.

Yeah but remember they shoe-horned Hillary in because she looked like the best choice and that turned out poorly.
I dont think any of them has a chance. just barely enough people love Donald, in no small part to conservative media spoonfeeding them bullets and Jesus, and he will probably win again by a narrow margin and strut like a fat orange peacock.

Yeah, the problem might be you and not the Democratic candidates.

its better than what the Republican party offered and they got their guy elected.
so obviously the key here is who can can the best shit, not who can do the job. or who has a brain. or a soul.

I caught maybe the last 45 mins. Warren seemed impressive and clearly is interested in turning around this country. O'Rourke as well. Sanders always says the right things. Biden is too old. The rest of the guys were blah, though Castro I thought told a nice story establishing that he has more integrity in his little finger than Trump in his whole body.
My general impressions.

I really hope Pete Buttigieg gets the nomination. He’s articulate and well thought like Obama was. Harris seems like just as much of a shit stirrer as Trump and if she became president we'll remain as broken and divided of a country as ever.

I agree with Biden on what he said about national debt and how Bernie and other promise all sorts of things but can’t pay for it. He’s right. Way too many empty promises, he’s at least being realistic.

This is what's so ridiculous about establishment Democrats. There's a debt problem, so we can't make life easier for the lower median half... but of course we can fill the wallets of some special interest public employees.

LOL at Yang. He never gets any time but in just a few words makes it clear why he might be the most amazing president one could imagine in office. He simply looks at issues, defines the problem and offers some genius level solution I was rather disappointed that Pete Buttigieg shined him on.
