What Went Down At The December Democratic Primary Debate

Nathaniel, are you saying this is the spelling bee of debates?

I think we have kinda reached the debate singularity. Everyone is doing pretty well. I think it’s anyone’s guess who will see a polling bump after tonight.

I think Steyer is actually doing pretty well, all things considered, as is Yang. But the fact that other candidates are also doing well isn’t great for them, since it just makes them look like acceptable alternatives to the higher-polling candidates who voters already like better. I’m sort of waiting to see if we get more conflict — are the gloves going to come off when we get to health care?
