Who won the Democratic presidential debate?

Sanders attended a taping of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”, which has become a popular stop for presidential hopefuls. “Enough of the emails”. We have 27 million people living in poverty. “When is he going to get credit for a movement?” Sanders said it was a complicated issue. She referenced Republicans a dozen times during the two-hour debate, even putting the party alongside the Iranians and National Rifle Association on a list of enemies she was proud to have made. “But I’m a progressive who likes to get things done”.

In years past, candidates either totally ignored the failed war on drugs and the harms of marijuana prohibition – or more typically, said harmful, stupid stuff about their “youthful indiscretions”, their concern about “sending the wrong message”, and their plans to amp up law enforcement.

It wasn’t the only moment where she had to wrestle with taking a stance.

“Sanders’ role has been big in civilizing the process”, he said. And Bush cast Clinton as the beneficiary of a Democratic field that sidestepped confrontations over her private email use, a controversy that has dogged her campaign for months.

Bernie Sanders: You know? So I think it’s pretty clear what their obvious goal is.

Clinton’s strong performance Tuesday night in the party’ first presidential debate of the 2016 race might give Vice President Joe Biden another reason to stay on the sidelines. When the Register asked Chafee if he now regrets his debate answer, he said no. A few of the prepared zingers were really great, such as “They [Republicans] don’t mind having big government to interfere with a woman’s right to choose and to try to take down Planned Parenthood, they’re fine with big government when it comes to that, and I’m sick of it”. Staff told Lincoln Chafee his dad supported the bill – a compromise bill negotiated by Democrats and Republicans. She also hits a high mark of people who “might vote for” her at 35 percent.

Said Schale: “No disrespect to Bernie (Sanders, the Vermont senator), but she didn’t have a peer on that stage and Joe Biden would absolutely be a peer on that stage”.

Biden is keenly aware that any true opening for him to run and win stems directly from Clinton’s perceived weakness as a front-runner. “I was in the Senate at the same time”, Clinton responded. And best of all for her, her boom was not followed by a bust as is so often for candidates in the early going.

Clinton laughed and heartily shook his hand as the live audience of mostly Democrats erupted in cheers.

“When I met with him last week in his office, he was as serious as a heart attack”, Schultz said. Now put the foundations under them.’ ‘Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!’ Extracted from their contexts, such declarations read like the text on inspirational posters or quote-a-day calendars – purposes to which they are routinely put. “It’s time to stand up and pass comprehensive gun safety legislation as a nation”. “And the passion he showed”, Dan Hynes, a former Illinois comptroller who stumped for Barack Obama in 2008.

“If we do not address the global crisis of climate change … the planet that we’re going to be leaving our kids and our grandchildren may well not be habitable”, Sanders said.

A notable moment came when Sen. “That’s less likely to happen”, he said. And in places like Iowa, Sanders now has a staff of 60. It was a debate that would make Americans feel better about the future of their country. Webb came in a solid third place, earning more mentions than Chafee and O’Malley combined.

When CNN’s Anderson Cooper, right out of the gate, raised a specter that fuels doubt about Clinton: that she is an ideological shape-shifter, moored to nothing but political expedience.

“Last night was a good night, today is just as good getting the endorsement of this union”, she said.

Perhaps most harmful for Biden, she pointed to ways she would continue Obama’s legacy and emphasized how he trusted her experience on foreign policy even after their bitter 2008 fight. But tonight, I want to talk not about my e-mails, but about what the American people want from the next president of the United States. “It is sending all the wealth to the top”.
