OMG. No offense but you kinda revealed yourself as incompetent by thinking Chafee did better than Hillary.

I understood what you said perfectly. Democrats should be more confident in their position and shift the political narrative rather than tiptoe around the GOP's ''That's big government'' bashing. That is why I am here for Sanders. He is confident in his positions and has maintained his positions for decades and would not be so foolish to think he could compromise with such people.

Chafee at least could answer a question directly without dancing around it with cute little jokes.

Is anyone able to participate in the primaries? Do you have to be a registered Democrat or? This is my first election and I would like to be as involved as possible. Wikipedia says mine would be March 15th and would be an Open Primary if that is helpful to anyone.

I never said he did great.

And he didn't. He did far from great.

Depends on your state. You may need to register several months or weeks beforehand to vote in the primaries. Your state should have a voting website with more specifics if you Google it. Open primaries means ut doesn't matter what you register as, you can still vote in the primary of your choice.

Thanks for basically repeating what I said.

This is undeniable. Obviously not all Bernie stans fit this description, but socialism and democratic socialism is just popular in this age group and on liberal social media circles.

Glad the Dem debate wasn't a tragic mess like the Republican ones.

I think Sanders, Clinton, and O'Malley performed best. Clinton is very skilled at rhetoric - she is confident and precise in her answers even when she skirts directly answering them. In terms of the issues, she is a bit too moderate for my taste. I definitely side more with Sanders and O'Malley on issues like immigration, college tuition, and Wall Street. However, Sanders has not clearly specified what exactly his plans are for these issues (aside from having Wall Street pay for college education).

Chafee and Webb floundered.

Your monotony is boring.

Russian media is dragging Hillary. Looks like she made another enemy

So is your refusal to debate.

DBW, what are you trying to debate? I've kept up since the beginning and I still don't get it.

Like her or not, Hillary did what she had to do in the debate last night—get through it. Her opponents were very gentle and soft!

Even Trump agrees.

Bernie wining these polls with 60 - 80% doesn't feel suspect to some people? If he won the debate by such large and unrealistic margins, he should trounce HRC in the primaries from here on out, right? RIGHT?

Even in 2008, as big of a rock star as Obama was with increasing support throughout, he never won polls like that in such large margins. And his popularity at that time was a once in a lifetime type of thing to witness. I thought Bernie did okay last night. Did he win it? No. Did he lose? No. I think he sustained his position in the campaign trail, but has gotten the much needed media exposure. Exposure which he has desperately lacked throughout the primaries thus far.

Hillary was poised and looked very much so like a candidate that could take the general election, becoming our Commander and Chief. My biggest criticism of hers from the debate was the, 'first female president' and 'the biggest enemy = Republicans' parts. The first female president thing has been beaten into our brains already. WE GET IT ALREADY. I support it and am here for it, but I'm tired of HEARING about it constantly from her. It becomes annoying and she doesn't want to overdue it more so than she already has.. Let's tone it down with that and let the others do it for her. As for the Republicans comment, I could've really done without it. She should've left it with Healthcare Execs and Iranians, but she made the statements, otherwise putting a blemish on a great debate showing.

Chafee, was just a podium-filler in my mind.

Mr. Webb ain't nothing but a Reagan Republican infiltrator in the Democratic Party. He did okay, but was partaking in the wrong party debate.

O'Malley was stuck between good and okay for me. He had moments where I thought he could make a name for himself, but he didn't. As many pundits were saying, he missed an opportunity to infuse a punch into his campaign that he needs to become a real contender. I genuinely like the guy, but POTUS potential? I didn't get it from him. Definitely cabinet or VP potential. Ironically enough, I thought he was campaigning for the Vice President consideration than the actual Democratic Party Presidential Candidate. I could see him being in the running for HRC's VP selection, but Castro is the early-on favorite, who I'm a huge fan of.

Those who're looking for a new fusion to be inserted, after Hillary, I believe the Democratic Party will supply some fun and legitimate candidates down the road in 2020, but most likely 2024. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the debate. There was less talk on reality tv show type beef and more about the issues we care about.

The reason Hillary is drilling in on that female President deal is because she completely shied away from it during the 08 debates and it cost her. Wait for one of her opponents to attack her for it, they will be seen as anti-woman, and she gets to play the sympathy card.
