    Hillary was kissing Obama's a$$ tonight. She dropped his name in just about every answer she gave.

    So I'm watching it now and am about half way through. Although I like some answers by each candidate, i simply don't like Clinton. I might vote for her as I believe she is leaps and bounds superior to Trump/Cruz for this country, but I will hate hearing her over-rehearsed voice for 4 years. If Bernie somehow comes out ahead, I'll be thrilled, even though he has a bunch of policies I think go too far and are too costly. It's better to shoot for the moon and end up in orbit.

    Not too surprising, Everyone knows Clinton and nobody gives a shit about O'Malley. That only really leaves the Sand man.

    Beanies advisors who are giving interviews are mentioning Elizabeth Warren's name in a couple of responses. It sounds planned, perhaps a hint that Warren would be the VP selection for Bernie.

    Hillary's best friend at the DNC scheduled these.

    Hillary does best when the national spotlight shines less.

    I don't mind her voice at all. This was my first debate this election, for either party. Clinton was punchier and less dignified/ladylike than I expected. Sanders kept demanding extra time and had the audience laughing at him sometimes. His voice went shrill. My opinion went up for Mallory and down for Sanders. Sanders called Bill Clinton's behavior "deplorable" and advocated more war against ISIS. Two negatives from me for that. He called Sadaam a 2-bit dictator and wants to be tough with Iran. Two more negatives from me on that. The only one of the 3 who said anything in favor of peace instead of war was Mallory when he quoted a voter asking him not to use the term "boots on the ground."

    I'll stick with Sanders, but I like him less now and Mallory more. Clinton is still better than any warmongering Republican.

    I checked above. His name is O'Malley. Fuck his name, I still like him.

    What about a warmongering Clinton? And Bill Clinton's behavior was deplorable. Hillary nodding along in agreement seems like a good basis to believe it.
