There was - but it was preceded by bullsh.

Not a Democrat but Delaney was not the lunatic the other 9 were. Ryan had moments of sanity along with Klobucher.

He's bipartisan, which is what we need to bring us back together again. Other things he said made a lot of sense--he's got his head on straight. Some of the others were okay but he was the best. I'd vote for any of them before Trump.
To me Delaney came off the most realistic, credible, down to earth. Kind of the only adult in the room. The rest were just more about who can give away more free stuff, speak the most Spanish, and who can win the social justice warrior contest.

Klobuchar and Delaney were the clear winners. Beto the clear loser. I thought DeBlasio had some strong moments and found the Spanish use to be divisive and believe that’s a serious misstep.

They all sounded intelligent, knowledgeable and had unique viewpoints. Good tactic to ignore Trump. Just stated policy and plans. Real ones. Did not hear any unrealistic promises or extravagant claims. After those 2016 GOP joke debates, this was refreshing.

Amazingly, nobody compared the size of their hands!

Which is why she got so little air time-and an attack question concerning her stance on homos when she was a teenager.

Who was it that was talking of bringing manufacturing to America and complained about GM shutting down the Lordstown plant while opening plants in Mexico? He sounded like Trump at that point. About the only remotely sane voice on the stage.

Yes, the media has already picked someone else.

Gotta give you that one. But we did have one talking about her vagina.
