Warren's placement is not ideal, but I think it is much easier for her to "win" a debate with all of the lesser-known candidates. Plus it eliminates the risk of getting into significant disputes with the other high name recognition candidates, which could lead to a more positive reception and being seen as "above the fray."

Let me predict some things that will come up:

"...win back working-class voters in the rust belt"
"...bring back civility to the office"
Moderators will bring up Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and one of her favored policies (GND, M4A)
"No, I am not a socialist"
Klobuchar mentions she won every congressional district in MN.
Warren plugs her college plan.

Is this the first time someone said "Latinx" in a presidential debate?

Tulsi mentions that she was in the military - take a shot.

Beto's doing the whole hokey platitude thing over anything substantive.

Is it fair to say that Beto has blown his chance completely?

I think so, and unfortunately this probably makes it harder for him to drop into TX-SEN.

Biden probably didn't expect to get in a tussle like that. Whew.

Good response from Sanders - what's happening in Yemen is so important.

Biden's message is completely anachronistic. There is no appeal, imo.

Agreed. He is trying to appeal to the old school of primary voters, without much attention to the "pulse" of the current party coalition.
