High stakes Democrat debate has Sanders in the crosshairs

The Democratic presidential candidate debate in Charleston, South Carolina reprised a piece of political theatre similar to a performance six days earlier in Las Vegas.

Elizabeth Warren, who hasn't often taken swipes at Sanders, said they both wanted universal healthcare, but she"dug in" and"did the work" to pay for her plan, and"Bernie's team trashed me for it". For two hours, Sanders faced slings and arrows from his opponents. He responded in typical Sanders fashion, with tried and true lines his supporters can probably recite from heart at this point.It wasn't the fight most people were anticipating, but it was one they probably should have expected. Biden has his back to the wall in South Carolina, where he needs a win if he wants to keep his hopes of winning the nomination alive.

When Steyer replied that he had sold his stock and had helped fund a bank to support black-owned businesses, Biden was ready with his rejoinder.It may not have been the knockout blow Biden needed, but throughout the debate he showed a fire and a sense of urgency he's lacked in previous engagements.Bloomberg out of the spotlight

And then there was Elizabeth Warren, Bloomberg's nemesis last week, who made yet another run at the billionaire and his past funding of Republican candidates, including her 2000 Senate opponent, Scott Brown.
