Some 20 presidential primary contenders return to a pair of stages on Tuesday and Wednesday seeking a breakout moment at the second Democratic debates.
Republicans likely loved it. The discussion revealed large, fundamental divides in both policy and messaging strategy among the Democrats. They spent time telling each other they were wrong and debating Sanders' plan in tough-to-follow detail. One more winner -- former Congressman Jon Delaney, who, while disagreeing with Sanders, made smart points about doctor reimbursement and hospital closure. He looked like someone disagreeing with Sanders who actually understood health care policy.
9:01 p.m. A 37-year-old Mayor Pete Buttigieg, spotlighted the age difference between him and 59-year-old Sen. Amy Klobuchar when he responded,"This is the exact same conversation we have been having when I was in high school. I was a junior when the Columbine shooting happened. I am the first generation to see school shootings. We have produced a second generation. We dare not allow there to be a third. Something is broken.
"What we're doing hasn't worked because we haven't had a system in Washington capable of delivering what the American people have told us they want.
"I believe that immigrants don't diminish America, they are America and if you want to do something about border security, you, first of all, change the rules so then you pass the bill, and what the bill will do is it will greatly reduce the deficit and give us some money for border security," she added.
"If fraud is involved, that's suitable for the criminal statute. If not, it should be handled under civil law," Buttigieg said. 8:37 p.m.: Bernie Sanders goes after moderator Jake TapperAmid a response on the debate over healthcare, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., took aim at CNN moderator, Jake Tapper and then the network as a whole for the ads running during the debate's commercial breaks.
8:29 p.m.: Elizabeth Warren comes to Bernie Sanders' defenseAmid the first contentious moment between Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and former Congressman John Delaney, D-Md., Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., stood by her progressive ally, defending him from the attack.
Not watching the DemocratDebates . . . I'm sure it's all interesting and such but. . . . .
