What Went Down In The Fifth Democratic Debate

Others might see this differently, but I really like that the moderators are asking questions on a variety of subjects instead of sticking to the subjects where we know the candidates are divided (wealth tax, health care.)

I mentioned a moment ago that Democrats rank climate change fifth in terms of important issues. But in the same survey, only 1 percent of Republicans ranked climate change as the most important issue — it didn’t crack the top 10.

Seems like a bad night for Deval Patrick, in that Klobuchar and Booker seem to be very much positioning themselves as moderate alternatives to Biden and Buttigieg. That is the lane Patrick, who is not on stage, is trying to carve out.
