I didn't see the debate, but Politico says that Bernie was weak on black issues, by just tying their problems back to Wall Street, rather than focusing on institutional racism, which presumably is what resonates with black Democrats. Not that many blacks watched the debate perhaps, but for those who watched the debate, is it fair to say that Bernie was ineffective in furthering his mission to cut into the black vote? And isn't that job one for Bernie at the moment? If so, in that sense Bernie might be viewed as having lost the debate. It seems with respect to white Democrats, the two didn't move the ball vis a vis each other much. Those who want the poetry, go for Bernie. Those who are into prose go for Hillary.
