I was going to do a live blog, but my computer isn’t co-operating and it’s taking forever to submit comments. The one thing I’ve noticed is the crowd seems very pro-Sanders. Have at it.
Very raucous crowd really taking away from any momentum in the debate. Feels like a Republican debate at times, unfortunately, with both sides unspooling stored up attacks on each other. It’s rather unpleasant to watch on both sides; frankly, each candidate is showing their worst side thus far.

I used to feel sorry for him during these serial ass-kickings he gets from Sec. Clinton. I’m over it, he deserves every kick in the teeth he gets.

You like Hillary, think she won every debate, and think she’s winning this one. I’m sure our Sanders folks will feel the polar opposite.
Sanders sounds fumbling and curmudgeonly, high on outrage and weak on details. Clinton sounds canned, rude, and incapable of answering a question.
Like I said, bad on both sides.

Sanders got rocked on guns (no surprise).
Clinton’s stance on raising/not raising the social security income cap is bizarre. It’s weird that raising the cap isn’t standard Democratic thinking.
Sanders’s answer on Israel may not help in NY, but it was remarkable. It wasn’t anything close to radical, but it seemed so just because he brought up the Palestinians in a setting like that and referred to them as a group of people that, you know, existed.

Yes, it’s a silly gotcha issue and I don’t appreciate people harping on it, but it’s an easy enough distraction to take off the table and move on from.

Clinton: 33 YEARS
Sanders: 1 (TWICE the same 1)
Let’s get that done with before again changing the subject in order not to release them.
Are Sanders “fans” incapable of seeing that Sanders is blatantly dishonest? Are they that new to politics?
