Who won this one?

Hillary seriously f_cked up in the beginning. The first 30 minutes I thought she was going to wreck her own campaign and fulfill the "spiteful, slimy, hateable lawyer" image that everyone attacks her on. She did not handle the answers about campaign donations well (even though I think this "guilt by donation" thing is completely bullsh_t and low blow). There was severe discomfort; that was awful to watch.


But after that, she completely dominated the debate. Ending strongly is more important than starting, and even though there was blood in the beginning, they ended on a positive note. But she recovered with strong answers on Flint, electability, successfully tied herself to Obama, and absolutely crushed on foreign policy.

So in the end, Hillary. Bernie failed to destroy her, and she recovered and made a strong case for herself.

I'm not going to deny that she struggled with her answers on corporate donations and Wall Street, etc., but I think we must have been watching different debates at the beginning. The first question was about whether Clinton was a true Progressive, and I think she totally shut down that line of attack from Sanders. Since Sanders is the one saying or implying she isn't one, it really fell upon him to make the case, and it was obvious that he totally failed to do so while Clinton offered a vociferous defense of her work on progressive causes. Her answer on that issue was extremely well prepped and set up the rest of the debate for a really strong showing for her.

Yes, you're right, I forgot about the labels part. That was pretty good.
