Warren is clearly better than the rest, although her voice is pretty weak

Was there a Cruz/Rubio style Spanish showdown earlier in the debate? I missed it.

Beto and Castro talked over each other incoherently for a bit

Warrens not doing too horrible overall, but I wouldn’t want her at the top of the ticket if I were a Democrat.

Yeah, she'll look incredibly weak next to Trump

I think Castro probably "won" overall in that he likely helped himself change his trajectory the most.

I'm starting to think the only reason I liked Ryan's performance is because he pandered to rust belt people like myself.

Ryan mixing up the Taliban and al-Qaeda was pretty darn bad.

This debate won't impact Warren one way or another.

He didn't mix them up, he was trying to say that the Taliban was protecting Al-Qaeda, which it was, but he had trouble getting it out.

That's certainly not how it came across.

Debate has been pretty much overshadowed by SCOTUS decisions and coupled with the fact Warren didn't get to say much, she got the raw deal in her placement tonight.

Warren had the third-most air time. I don't get the narrative that she got shafted.

de Blasio didn't lose night one. He didn't win (not by a long shot), but he didn't lose either.
He came off as an angry, Marxist jerk with a penchant for interruption.

Lol

"There's plenty of money in the world; it's just in the wrong hands" sounds pretty extreme.

It may be extreme for our current era, but not "Marxist" in any sense of the word.

His Che Guevara quote today also may have played into the comment.
