Can't watch live but which of these are accurate:

1A) Bloomy bombing so hard even MSM spin can't prop him up;

1B) Bloomy terrible but did enough doubletalk to give MSM some leeway like Butts/Klobs in past debates;


2A) It's mostly Warren vs Bloom & Klob vs Butt with Biden and Bernie staying relatively quiet unless directly questioned (or Bloom does something real dumb);

2B) It's everyone vs Bloom and then everyone vs Bernie and the see-saw continues throughout the night

Definitely 1A

Yeah, this is going to be one of the secondary narratives out of tonight. Pete looks neat and clean and professional and that's great for voters who care more about image and :decorum: than actual policy.

People think he came out of that clean? He looked like the villain in a 1980s ski lodge movie

yea that was a really bad look for him, even if he was right that Klob is a complete do-nothing just going on her "I VOTED ON SO MANY THINGS" record it looked like every smug 'well aren't you cute thinking you're smart, little girl' dickhead and Warren got huge points for diving in to defend her.

2C) Warren vs Bloomberg with others occasionally piling on, Pete vs Bernie, Pete vs Amy. Biden keeps falling asleep.

The Berniebros and "release your medical records!" lines of attack are both absolute loving bullshit, but IMO to your average dipshit moderate Pete probably came off better in both exchanges.
