    I'm confused if Castro was wrong about Biden. ABC even came back from break and said Castro mischaracterized what Biden was saying, but Biden clearly said you would have to buy into his "medicare if you want" plan.

    Biden was all over the place, everyone was confused. I don't know what ABC was talking about when they did that fact check. Biden said "buy in" multiple times.

    Yes but what Biden was saying that people who don’t have the financial means would be automatically included without “buying in”

    Strong night for Klobuchar. Made the most of her time, sounded pragmatic and hit Bernie hard on healthcare.

    I like her but she’s not going to play in our reality TV era, I fear.

    Haven't researched Klobuchar. Everytime I scan her name, I see Knoblockar.

    I don't know what Biden is saying. I wish he would tell us without the media coming to his defense on what he was supposed to say. Castro being grilled and the transcript, in black and white, says that Biden said "buy in".

    Now everyone is coming for Castro because Biden is clearly not on his game. If Castro was lobbing these haymakers at Bernie, everyone would tell his old ass to get out of the race.

    Bernie is also old as hell, but you don't see him limping around, incoherent, bleeding from the eye out there like Biden.



    These dudes out here talking about dumb ass sh-t like tone and needless attacks, Trump is going to bring down holy hell on the Dem nominee... get used to that sh-t now gawd damn.

    You have republicans using 9\11 to trik Dems to pass laws in NC . Dems need to be ruthless. Stop playing around.

    Klobuchar was trash. She added nothing. There is reason she is polling at -15%.

    Her and Castro being in over Gabbard was silly. Hopefully, we have seen the last of both Klobuchar and Castro.

    One more note, Yang has to ****ing speak up. Dude has blown it IMO, he has such a polarizing platform that could rock the media boat and give him so much publicity, if only he wouldn't let candidates like Klobuchar, Castro, Booker, Pete, Beto talk miles around him.

    Candidates like Yang, Castro, Pete, and Beto might light up the internet but the actual electorate is nothing like Twitter.

    That's my point, Yang needs to speak more during the debates so he can catch some time on mainstream media, get to the older crowd who are actually watching the debates.

    His platform of universal basic income can spark a big debate in America, and he's fantastic at presenting it, but he just isn't doing it at the debates like he is online, he's blowing his opportunity IMO.

    I would disagree. These Republicans are so dirty and underhanded, it's crazy. Democrats are constantly getting punched in the mouth; Republicans get thier way no matter what. If you aren't going to act like an *******, for the love of the country punch back. Get a backbone.

    3 hours and too many candidates still. When does it narrow down to just 3? So boring, 3 hours? I think the audience feel asleep for the most part of it. Beto talkin bout taking away ar15's? Good luck with that buddy.

    You’re alone on an island. Nobody is echoing that sentiment. Not sure which debate you were watching.

    Everything I’ve seen and read indicates she’s being praised for turning in a strong debate performance, for hitting Bernie on healthcare and for styling herself as a moderate alternative to the her far-left counterparts on stage. Not to mention, she touted her strength and credibility in the Midwest. As we all know, the path to 270 goes through the Midwest.

    To say she added nothing is just silly. As is the suggestion that Gabbard should have been there over her. I’m glad you guys aren’t calling the shots.
