CNN Flint, MI Democratic debate @8pm ET **live commentary thread**

[Shadows]

I thought Clinton did well o on guns & spinning the auto bail-out but Sanders was very strong overall, undoubtedly. I'm happy with his performance & I thought he was better than Clinton. Clinton did the Clinton things, talking in circles & hitting the opponent on his perceivable weak point.

The behavior of Clinton hacks here are disgusting, apart from 1 or 2 who posts rational stuff, most are just horrible people. Also un-surprisingly Hillary's closet conservative ideology draws Republicans in the forum to the fold although almost every GOP supporter in the real world seems to hate Hillary!

But 1000 times better than the GOP debate, they should learn honestly!

Honestly I think Clinton does speak in circles, does not connect with people but she is a decent debater IMO - I would give credit where it is due.

I clearly thought this was one of Bernie's better debates & he had a solid win, I'm sure Clinton supporters would think their candidate did better. Overall I am satisfied - To expect him to destroy Clinton on every issue is probably too much! GOP should really learn from the mess they created!
