Last night, too. But for most they and we would be far better served if they realized their own limitations, checked their motivations and egos, and continued to serve in capacities other than running for President.

This is tame in comparison. Absolutely no personal attacks, hardly any large disagreements
Really only de Blasio got frisky

Biden had a terrible night.
No huge winner tonight. Castro and Inslee did well, however.

Biden couldn’t remember his own website. He said to go to “Joe30330”

I googled it. 30330 is the number you can text stuff to for Biden’s campaign. He got seriously confused there.

Whatever you do, don't go to Joe30330.com especially if you are at work.

Was surprised how much the candidates went after Obama. The party has really changed in the last 6 years.

September debates will likely only be 10-13 candidates. That will be good. I really hope they just get 10 and everyone gets to be on the same stage.
Would anyone be mad about a:
Biden, Harris, Warren, Bernie, Klobuchar, Pete, Booker, Beto, Castro, +1 debate?
And hate to agree with Brantt here but dunking on Obama just to trash Biden is not a great idea?

I like that Yang is in the field. UBI is something that needs to be seriously considered as we automate more and income inequality gets worse. I think he has a lot of good policy ideas, but it’s off-putting that so many former Trump supporters are following him. I loved when he called out the absurdity of the debates last night.
There are definitely candidates I would far prefer, but I think it’s constructive to have him out there talking about some of these ideas.

It's good to have people like him and Inslee etc. there for now. Yang should be bringing up ideas like UBI, Inslee should make literally every answer about climate change, Pete should be banging the drum of structural change.
It's the hickenlooper/delaneys/de blasios/ryans of the the bunch that need to go. The moderate lane is full and it's on the acela from wilmington. No room for you dudes.
