Damn! Do we have a slate of excellent candidates for

POTUS, or what? Just listen to this debate!

Every one of them stands head, shoulders, knees and toes over the swamp rat that occupies the White House at this moment! I will gladly pull the lever for which ever one of them secures the nomination.

SANITY AND COMPETENCE 2020! Vote blue!

Booker did really well tonight.

Klobuchar I've decided is my second choice now.

and get long winded. They didn't do it often tonight. For the most part, they gave good, short answers and they each had a chance to shine, and when they did, wow, did they ever shine.

Buttigieg talking about coming out and how some things are more important than winning. He looked good tonight.

Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg. Julian Castro, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O'Rourke, Andrew Yang, Cory Booker.

Obviously, I have my preference and there are some I like more than others in that list, but I'd enthusiastically vote for any one of them in the general.
