What Went Down On Night One Of The Second Democratic Debate

“The question is, why do we have to be so extreme,” Delaney says. Wow. Joe Biden must want to send him a thank-you card. Delaney, in my view, really dominated Sanders and Warren in the last 20 minutes on health care. He attacked Medicare for All in a way that I don’t think Biden could have done on stage.

Delaney is hammering an argument he also made in the last debate — that hospitals will be forced to close if they’re paid at the Medicare rate. Experts say it’s much more complicated than that, and he’s probably overstating the impact quite a bit.

I don’t know, Nate; it kinda seems like the first rule of electability is it’s all we hear about 😉
