What Went Down In The Fourth Democratic Debate

I think the health care discussion offered the most combative interactions. It especially set up the most attacks on Warren, who has become a co-front-runner in the race with Biden, so that was notable. If O’Rourke were polling better, I think I’d agree with Micah that the Buttigieg-O’Rourke interaction was the moment of the night. Instead, I’m not sure what it is.

I know they are not first-tier candidates, but I agree with Micah. I think the Buttigieg-O’Rourke scuffle on guns will be the thing that sticks in people’s minds. Along with his other wins, I could see it really moving the needle for Buttigieg.

I think I’m actually going to stand by my the-Buttigieg-Beto-spat-is-the-standout-moment take.
