This is the first debate I watched from beginning to end.
– Castro and Klobi had good closing stories. Other than that, they were not impressive.
– Most were oddly deferential to Beto.
– Yang is hanging in.
– Bernie seemed older than ever. Can’t be Bernie (sadly)
– Mayor Pete is always solid.
– Harris had a lot of canned jibes. She can’t be so rehearsed vs Trump
– Can’t be Biden.
– Warren is warren. You either get her or don’t.
– Booker handles himself like a frontrunner.
