He fired back by interrupting her to say something like "yeah, you did a good job at doing your job" in glib fashion.

Some might see it as a zinger, but I think it put the exclamation point on the already brewing undercurrent that Joe is doing the "man" thing of saying "yeah, you had an idea, but I made it reality" which is not going to fly with a lot of women.

ETA: She let the interruption fizzle into silence for about a beat and a half and I think it was a good move on her part.

Her response was my favorite of the night, along with Bernie's response about what Biden got done. He was called out for bragging about a terrible deal with McConnell in one of the first debates.

"Death of a Salesman" seems so applicable to Biden.
 
Yang doesn't get it.

He says we need to rethink how we value work, but preceded that statement by invoking a whole list of professions as less worthy than others.
 
Klobuchar was friends with McCain, good answer. They are all turning it into a campaign speech.

Steyer has a good campaign speech. His friend thing seemed stuck on the side.

O'Rourke isn't naming names. He's trying. ... Shared a rental car with a Republican, turned out well.

Booker's friends with everyone even Ted Cruz. He's convincing. I believe him.

Yang is still an odd duck, made friends with a Trump supporter.

Harris is friends with Rand Paul. Oh gawd, she's back to family stories.

Buttigeig had military friends, lots of trust, barriers lowered. Darn I wish he had more experience.

Sanders worked with McCain, and other GOP legislators. Trump is a hater.

Warren, some Republican guy from 27 years ago. Wasn't Warren a Republican then? Back to the same campaign speech.

Biden, let me guess, "John McCain worked for me, asked me to give a eulogy at his funeral" launches into an attack on Trump. Yells at people to "Get up!"

Hooray it's over in time for The Voice.
 
CNN aftermath reporting AOC is Sanders' unnamed guest at the rally he teased and will endorse him (with "the squad", though probably not all in person at the rally?).

ETA: regardless of how I feel about candidates, I think it's a bad move for her. Not one ballot has been cast and I think this might be her inexperience in the long-term implications of national office endorsements by high-profile representatives.

I don't think it matters either way, really.
 
Amy feels like the anointed new moderate candidate. CNN is really playing it up in the post-debate, and they were clearly setting it up during the debate.

I didn't care for Pete in his attacker role. He gave much better answers, focused on substantive concerns, in the earlier debates, IMO.

Good, fast-acting limiters. Actually given the delay, limiters can "look ahead" and block the peak transient. I'm just showing off a little now :9.

But if the tech was in pre-fade listen on that channel at that moment, they took a hit.

ETA: just noticed Yang did it too while I was hunting for some of his comments.

If I recall correctly, AOC was pretty clear about her general support for Bernie since she entered public view in the impressive way that she did?

He brought it on, claiming everything Obama did was Biden/Obama, as if.

And that no one else had actually done anything big (or meaningful).

Can you picture Mike Pence going on and on about what he and Trump accomplished?

...From the context, it looks like you think the answer is no, but my answer to that is very much yes - if he thought that it would win him points.

Riding on coattails is not the same as wearing the coat.
