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

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Bernie is channeling Rubio, he keeps repeating that he's against Wall Street over and over.

She's repeated stuff, too.

Please, of course she has. But he uses them as a crutch.

Hillary uses her sex as a crutch and tries to benefit politically from it.

When has she used it recently and why not embrace the historic nature of her campaign?

[Lyin' Steve]

This poor guy whose daughter was shot asked a question, Clinton gave him a litany of policy responses, Bernie just talked about himself.
Clinton:  "I think we need to do this, I think we need to do that, I think this bill should pass."
Sanders:  "I have a D- from the NRA."

[DrScholl]

Sanders said he lost an election in 1988 by three votes. His memory is faulty http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=37984

So...how many more elections until the Dem party actively seeks to outright ban guns?

What a great world it would be if we were gun free. Conservatives always use the government tyranny excuse but never used their arms when the government from both sides throughout our country's history has been tyrannical.

Nice job ending your campaign tonight Bernie

During one of the debates when talking about being establishment or not.

I support a woman becoming president. I just don't think someone should become president just because they're a woman.

[The Other Castro]

Clinton should try to stop interrupting. Being crotchety is Sanders' thing, it doesn't really work for her.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

He just yelled at Clinton to essentially shut up and got rightfully booed for it.

I was actually reading an article about Sandy Hook when they started talking about Sandy Hook.

Heh.

People have said this so many times before.

[psychprofessor]

Sanders just lost the nomination.

ftr - I said she should stop talking about it. And she has.

He usually says 3 points, probably misspoke.

[Xing]

Bernie's playing a risky game tonight. Time will tell if it pays off.

[RightBehind]

He just yelled at Clinton to essentially shut up and got rightfully booed for it.

So he doesn't think he should get to finish?

[Gass3268]

Sanders is really doing an excellent job tonight. Clear winner so far.

[RightBehind]

So it's okay for Hillary to go in on Sanders but how dare Bernie be aggressive himself? He gets accused for being passive. Then if he turns it up, people call him out for it.

The Bernie hacks on here are beyond ridiculous

Oh please. Find something substantial to say.

[The Free North]

Sanders is really going after her. He must realize things are getting desperate.

[Lyin' Steve]

The Bernie hacks on here are beyond ridiculous

Every single post.  Is a hit on Clinton or her supporters.  Every single one.  They're sarcastic, demeaning, they misrepresent what people are talking about, they're rude, and they drag down the level of discourse on these threads and in general on this forum.

I can't wait until the end of the month when Sanders drops out and they all vanish.

[Adam Griffin]

Stay classy dude.

Bernie bro logic.

It is what it is. I own my candidate's flaws: you should learn how to do the same. The inevitability you tout means that her flaws are going to be a lot more relevant than his in the coming months. Whine all you want about the American public perceives it: that won't change a thing.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Bernie and Hillary hacks will be happy. Despite the shouting and sniping, it's still 1000x more substantive than any GOP debate.

You realize that's been the same with every single Clinton hack post right? Some of you are being absolutely ridiculous.

I agree. It's gotten heated, but at least there haven't been any phallic references.
