What Went Down On Night One Of The First Democratic Debates

Booker is doing fine. Not great, not bad, just fine. I think he’s definitely been in the mix, but I’m not sure he’s had a breakout moment like I think Castro has, exhibiting his immigration expertise. I think Booker definitely planned to make a splash speaking Spanish, but O’Rourke stole a little of his thunder.

I swear to god I haven’t seen this many people who basically agree with one another on everything yelling at each other this much since I saw a group of drunk frat boys arguing over who got to take home a kitten they found.

I think so far, the debate has done a pretty good job of highlighting differences between the candidates. At this point early in the primary, it could just be a lot of people agreeing with each other. But there have been some real moments of tension.
