Seems to me that Buttigieg seems to be doing well (although I believe it's his home state). His delivery is well received. I would like to hear more from Klobuchar, but she's not getting a lot of time. Bloomberg is just playing defense. Warren doesn't seem prepared to debate, but more to attack (that's going to hurt her) and, well, Biden. Not sure about where he is coming from. He seems authoritarian. I don't think Sanders is doing too well and Steyer hasn't been able to speak but a few words (He's going to have to force his words in like the others or he won't get his point across). 

So far I have favored Warren, but her "just kill it" remark to Bloomberg really turned me off. That is Trump-style debate. She needed only give viewers a quick reminder of Bloomberg's history, then move on.  She should not have said Bernie's people attacked her healthcare program. That is as bad as Kobuchar saying "Wish we could all be as perfect as you, Pete." Snippy and bitchy.

It was proper Biden complained once about others allowed to go over time. Then quit whining.

The only one who seems to get better is Buttigieg, but he seems to me rather conservative.
Biden is still the guy with the most experience, especially foreign policy.

Klobuchar and steyer need to drop out. I want to see if their voters will go to Biden or Bernie.  Right now I'm worried that Bernie's plurality may also be his limit. But I am not SURE that is the case.  Could really be the Dem party has shifted enough to support an almost SOCIALIST candidate.
