Winner: Pete Buttigieg
Loser: Bernie Sanders

Why did you not list all the winners

Quote

Policy: The most common critique of these presidential debates is that the focus is on personalities, not policies. I hope those critics watched Tuesday night's debate. There was lots and lots of policy -- health care, childcare, foreign policy, climate change -- and very few personality-focused questions. If you were a potential voter tuning into this debate to learn about where the top candidates stand on the major issues of the day, you got what you were looking for.

1990: The back-and-forth between Warren and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders over whether she was the only person on the stage to beat a Republican incumbent over the past 30 years led to a remarkable amount of debate over how long ago, exactly, it was. Also, speaking of 1990, that got me to thinking about 1990 -- when the Milli Vanilli lip-synching scandal broke (look it up, kids!), "Twin Peaks" was on broadcast TV (still can't believe that happened) and the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (Damn you, Shredder!) were all the rage. Man, those were the days.

Chris Cillizza is such a poor man’s Carl Diggler

You’re right, Twin Peaks was the true winner tonight.

Didn't say that she shouldn't be mad.

But it feels so manufactured. Crazy story about Liz and Bernie behind doors in 2018 leaked to CNN one day before the debate on CNN, Warren polling is lowering, "Bernie is my friend", supports Sanders during the debate, and then when it's time to shake hands she refuses. Meanwhile CNN can't stop talking about Warren and Sanders not shaking hands and what this entails more than the actual policy brought up during the debate, as if she knew it'd cause drama while saying she wanted to diffuse it.

The messaging is all over the place and feels forced.

I knew they’d find a way to get Bernie and Warren to eat each other somehow, but I didn’t think it’d involve a dramatic on-camera handshake refusal! I needed some of this kinda spicy drama since Riverdale’s been on hiatus.

Warren was my second before her campaign pulled this insanely obvious nonsense now I think nobody is but whoever wins the nom I guess I'm for them not that it matters in my hyper blue state, Kloubuchar pissed me off a lot, I didn't even really know who the fuck Steyer was before this debate, Biden seemed a bit more awake than usual I think they gave him some uppers for a change, Butti is meh. I feel more strongly about my original pick than before hand.

Over a year ago, two 70-year-olds had a conversion. Let's assume both had perfect re-collection of this conversion.

Not sure if this belongs in the US or International Politics thread:

WASHINGTON — The United States is removing nearly two dozen Saudi military students from a training program and sending them back to Saudi Arabia following an investigation into a deadly shooting by a Saudi aviation student at a Florida Navy base last month, Atty. Gen. William Barr said Monday.
Many of the 21 cadets had contact with child pornography and possessed jihadist or anti-American material

I live in a very conservative part of Ohio. In 2008 and 12 I was really impressed by the reach of Obama's organization and actually went door to door for him during the general.

Although I supported Bernie in 2016 I attempted to go door to door for Hillary as well but the results were disappointing. Everyone who signed up from the local Democratic party did not show up so it was just me and the field organizer from the Clinton campaign at the local HQ. The organizer just sent me home and didn't seem to care.

I have no doubt that the experience would be different with Bernie as the nominee.
