Unfortunately, she did. I was hoping Bernie Sanders would pull off a miracle, but the veteran politician danced circles around him and almost manipulated him into endorsing her for president. Mr. Magoo was out of depth like a deer in the headlights.
See, I wanted Bernie to win because he's an idiot and would lose 49 states in a general election. Turns out he's not even consistent on the issues and is also pandering, as exposed by Hillary in a brutal exchange that most definitely damaged Bernie's reputation (or imaginary reputation, given the facts). Way to cozy up to the gun lobby, Bernie. Also, "things are very bad in the Middle East. very bad!" is not a coherent foreign policy position.
So I guess it will have to be Hillary after all. Ok, fair enough. Nominate the traitor.

If ever was a time for "None of the Above" this is it.

Oh, wait. That leaves Odummy still in office. Ghod help us all, the end is near.
America only wins when the GOP loses, which is exactly what they'll do in 2016.

Do you think Ford should be sued and held liable if a drunk driver in an F150 veers off in to the center and kills a family?

Do you think it's ok to sue Home Depot if I go buy a hammer there and kill someone with it?

I mean, if you think Bernie's position on that issue is in error, than you must believe that it's ok to sue companies for what criminals do with their products.... That, or you just hate guns so much that you're willing to throw all rationality out the window when it comes to that issue.....

That same article from also says this.......
"Mrs. Clinton has repeatedly said she doesn’t harbor any ambitions for another White House bid..."

If I were to rate performance rather than who "won" I'd put it this way.

Clinton/Sanders
O'Malley
Web
Chafee

Chafee (especially) and Webb should be cut after tonight IMO.

Talking People Declare Winner of DNC Snoozefest - Donald Trump

I've heard the most popular activity surrounding the DNC Debate was the Hillary Clinton Drinking Game. i.e. Take a shot any time she mentions guns, Trump, women or illegals, etc.

Trump had a good night however.

'Two (at least) should not be on the stage': Donald Trump tries to steal the spotlight by live-tweeting the Democratic debate... and gains more followers than anyone on stage

In other words, you refuse to answer a very simple question.

Trump is the shock jock of the presidential candidate. He's entertaining so why wouldn't you follow him?

It's a stretch to assume that all his followers are going to vote for him though.
