It was such an ugly look. He looked stupid when he looked over at the moderator who said “one at a time” and he just kept talking.

Let's not go crazy here. Parts of Cuba are good, parts are real bad.

That was by far the worst moderated debate I've ever seen, Jesus Christ that was pathetic

Looking at online reaction (which is of course not necessarily representative) the big talking points of the debate seem to be:

Biden looked tough and did better than he has
Bloomberg clearly paid off the crowd and didn't do well
Bernie's answer about Israel is getting some positive buzz
Tom Steyer? Who's that, someone with that name clearly wasn't in that debate

He sucks poo poo and my Maddow mainlining mother in law supports him and says Sanders is ‘the leftist trump’.

She supported Booker initially. Charleston Co Dems are plugged in to the establishment and definitely Decorum Boomers.

CNN just replayed Mayo Pete's "best" moment where he said sixties and fifties and then kept the tape running for his most embarassing one where he tried to talk over Bernie who basically went full stump speech.

The thing I love about this narrative starting to creep in over the past week is that people are missing the punchline: Trump won.

Biden definitely won, if for no other reason then he's the favourite in South Carolina and no one bothered to effectively attack him.

Holy poo poo: I turned off CBS because they had Klobuchar on, and then she went to CNN. What makes this amazing is how she opened the CBS interview with "It wasn't the slugfest of last time" and the first question on CNN was "was it another slugfest? Yes!"

Bernie's biggest fuckup was attempting to go for a "what about the war" burn and kinda pivoting from that because he realized he had to acknowledge the gun control thing too.

And the entire Republican party bent the knee, and let his administration inflict massive radical changes

So yeah, we can only hope Bernie is as successful inflicting universal healthcare and education loan forgiveness and legal weed on America as the "leftist Trump"

From what I'm seeing it seems that Biden probably did well enough to shore up his position in SC, but I don't think he did enough to actually recover beyond that, especially with the buzz being that Bernie gave a solid performance and came in a strong second. Biden (likely) managed to avert his decline in the polls for awhile, but the momentum remains with Bernie and I doubt coming second by a few points as the last polling suggested is going to hurt that in a state where Biden has been the frontrunner since day one, and by a much bigger margin.

This isn’t polling but it was 50/50 on Saturday and now Biden up 70/30. This is chances of winning SC.

Business Insider has a Winners/Losers piece out about the debate. Long story short their take is:

Loser: Bloomberg

Winners: Warren for kicking Bloomberg's teeth in again. Bernie for weathering the attacks pretty well.
