From tonight's debate
Winners- Kamala Harris, Michael Bennett- Harris the big winner, but Bennett showed he had enough substance and while Harris' attack on Biden was more noted, Bennett also did a takedown on on the former vice president.
Not Making Much of an Impact, but not Hurting Himself- Pete Buttigieg
Treading on Water, but No Danger of Being Hurt Too Badly- Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders- I know Sanders fans will not like this, but his day has come and gone. Elizabeth Warren does it better.
Chirping Like a Couple of Irritating Birds- Kirsten Gillibrand, Eric Swalwell. Swalwell's changing the guard got old quickly. Everything Gillibrand did got old quickly.
What Are They Doing Here?- Andrew Yang, Marianne Williamson
What am I doing here with Andrew Yang and Marianne Williamson?- John Hickenlooper
Last night's debate
Winners- Elizabeth Warren, Julian Castro, Warren benefited from not having Sanders on the stage with her, but I have a feeling she would have come out on top anyway. I have always been impressed with Castro since his speech at the Democratic Convention a few years ago, so his performance came as no surprise.
Not Quite a Winner, but Having His Moments- Cory Booker. He has his moments, but his earnestness, while I am sure it is quite sincere, occasionally fell short
Not Making Much of an Impact, But Not Hurting Herself- Amy Klobuchar
Not Going Anywhere, But Could Make Us Suffer for Quite A While- Bill DeBlasio
Not Ready for Primetime- Tim Ryan, Tulsi Gabbard, John Delaney
What Is He Doing Here? Beto O'Rourke- the most overrated politician in recent memory
I Thought Being a Governor Would Help- Jay Inslee
What did you think?
Harris has too big a chip on her shoulder to be President. Her attack on Biden was interesting because it was all based on a false assumption. Busing was indeed a big issue back then but she missed the basic facts of the issue. That busing allowed many school districts to delay school consolidation for a number of years. Biden was on the right side of that issue.
ReplyDeleteYou and I both know Medicare for All is a bad idea. You are not going to get insurance companies out of health care and would not want to. The best you can do is modify the ACA to include a Medicare option.
Andrew Yang was the only person on the stage who actually understands what our economy is going to evolve into and his plan actually deals with the effects of an AI dominated society.
Harris threw away whatever she gained by having a "Little Girl,Me" t-shirt for sale the next morning. She used her platform for advertising...Really skunky!
ReplyDeleteHarris is a fraud. Biden is handsy creep who loves Chinese money. The rest are going through the motions.
