What Went Down In The Fifth Democratic Debate

Klobuchar, along with a surprising reference to ex-boyfriends, mentions the 2018 Georgia governor’s race. In that race, Abrams won more votes in a governor’s race than Hillary Clinton had won in the state two years before.

Julia, just to play devil’s advocate, conflict attracts attention, right? That may be behind Harris’s attacks on Gabbard.

Also, I wonder how much it actually helps Harris to get into a fight like that one with Gabbard in particular. It makes her stand out, sure, but wouldn’t she want to engage with one of the front-runners, rather than someone who’s in a more marginal position?
