Here's some light reading as you watch "reasonable" Klobuchar speak at this debate: http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/...-a-decade.html
11 months old but is still
With that said, I'd rather have her as President than anyone else on that stage.
If you think she beats up her staff, just wait until you see what she'll do to Donald Trump!
Correct.
Biden has been a gaffe machine his whole career. It's not just because he's old now. This is what held him back from progressing beyond Senator, and he only became VP because Obama was nervous about losing Pennsylvania, and he chose Biden before the 2008 financial crash pretty much assured his election anyway.
People who like Biden have known about his faults for decades, so gaffes at the debates (or any other time) don't hurt him.
Similarly, Trump's outrageous behavior doesn't hurt him much, because again, his supporters already know and accept it about him.
Candidates lose support when their existing supporters learn new details about them which are troublesome. If the supporters have already accepted a candidate's existing faults, then it's a lot harder to knock them down. The only way to eclipse such candidates is to generate excitement about yourself, to where people jump over to you because they like you, not because the other guy sucks. This is what Barack Obama did to Hillary in 2008. Bernie tried to do it to Hillary in 2016, but he stumbled because black voters didn't like him, and honestly he had little appeal outside of young people and white rural Democrats.
Pete was very flat. I think he might get 4th in Iowa now.
No idea why they didn't attack Biden.
Now he's going to skate through and win this thing. Huge mistake.
Yep, Biden got off very easy in the last debate before voting happens. Debate could've been much worse for him. I think little Amy and Pete want admin jobs as a backup.
Except that many Republicans who simply would never vote for Hillary might now be shopping the Democratic side. There is no momentum and blind acceptance from these folk. I consider myself among them. I never paid any serious attention to Biden, Sanders, Mayor Pete previously.
Maybe voters like me aren’t important.
Democrats are gonna fuck this up.
Warren had some words for Sanders after the debate, and rejected his handshake

Not only can't a woman become President of the United States, she can't become Vice President.
If a woman became President she would age much faster than normal.
It would be a losing ticket.
Remember Geraldine Ferraro and Walter Mondale in 1984?

I'm kind of feeling like Warren is about to explode and go really hard on Bernie.
Will probably be the first genuine moment of her campaign.
I'm guessing Warren approached him and said something like, "Why did you lie up there? You know you told me that a woman will have a harder time winning. Why are you trying to make me look like the liar when it's you?"
And Bernie was all, "Meh", and just turned around and walked away.
Yep, I'm guessing she said something along those lines too. She wants to drum up more media buzz about this story while acting like she doesn't really want to talk about it. Guess we could just ask Steyer what was said since he was right there and nobody cares about him
imagine taking pride in something so pathetic as voting for one of these babies
