After a successful debate skewering of the billionaire former mayor, the Massachusetts senator has to make up ground quickly in the primary.

These were some of the ways that the supporters of Elizabeth Warren who swarmed her campaign’s North Las Vegas field office Wednesday morning described what their candidate did to Mike Bloomberg during the previous night’s debate. And when Warren herself finally arrived and bounded to the front of the bare-bones room to address the crowd, she was eager to keep piling on the multibillionaire former New York mayor.

It was a shortfall that Warren more than made up for Tuesday night. Every time Bloomberg tried to defend himself, she shivved him with a rhetorical razor blade. “This isn’t about how it turned out,” she said about the former mayor’s stop-and-frisk apology. “This is about what it was designed to do to begin with.

Nevada is the place to start playing catch-up. Right now, the FiveThirtyEight polling average shows Warren in third place at 11.6 percent — more than 15 percent behind the odds-on favorite, Bernie Sanders, but only 3.5 percent behind Joe Biden.

Warren hinted Wednesday that that may be her plan. Speaking to reporters, she pointed out that 98 percent of the primary electorate had yet to cast a ballot; she also declined to disavow a new super PAC that is unleashing a $1 million ad campaign on her behalf ahead of the caucuses, even though she has long criticized the practice.

Her timing may have been right because Bloomberg wasn't on the stage until last night.

Elizabeth Warren, on Fire in NevadaGiving a debate performance for the ages, Elizabeth Warren pulled back the curtain on Mike Bloomberg and reminded Democrats what they should be looking for in a nominee. Read JamilSmith's latest Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo she’s boring JamilSmith The far left should be rallying around ewarren instead of idiot BernieSanders SenSanders . Unless there is a major shift, dumb Bernie will be nominated & lose huge to realDonaldTrump . If by some miracle Bernie becomes President, the country & Dems will suffer for decades. JamilSmith That show was good but not good enough to help her. She should’ve came after Bernie instead. It’s her base but she’s for some reason protecting Bernie. That’s a slap in the face to her supporters. Warren is toast to me and I don’t trust her.
