Biden challenged her to explain how she planned to pay for medicare for all...nothing.....The moderator asked her to explain how she was going to pay for medicare for all.........nothing.....The moderator asked her more specifically do you play on raising taxes on the middle class....nothing. Her rhetoric probably does well with the demographic that prefers ideas over answers, but there's going to come a time that the ones that are targeted to pay for her plan will want an honest answer.

At least Bernie (who I think has gone completely off the rails,but he did write the "Damn Bill") has said he's going to pay for it by raising taxes on the middle class. 

Seems I'm not the only one who took notice:

Quote:“Senator Warren is known for being straightforward and was extremely evasive when asked that question — and we have seen that repeatedly,” Buttigieg added Thursday in an interview with Jake Tapper. “People are used to Washington politicians not giving straight answers to simple questions. But at a time like this, on an issue this important, that’s exactly what we need.”.......
“I think it’s puzzling that, when everybody knows the answer to that question of whether her plan and Senator Sanders’ plan will raise middle-class taxes is yes, why you wouldn’t just say so, and then explain why you think that’s the better way forward,” Buttigieg told Tapper.

I knew I liked Mayor Pete
