Observations on this Fourth Debate:


Kloubachur, Biden, and Buttigieg had their best nights.
Sanders was an inspiration for standing there for three hours and passionately articulating his views two weeks after a heart attack.
Steyer, when given time, gave excellent responses.
Harris, Booker, and Castro had solid performances. Booker had the best closing statement of the evening. Harris had the best answer on putting the pharma owners in jail for fueling the opioid crisis. Castro had the best line saying Trump locked up children at the border but creating the situation where I.S.I.S. prisoners were now free to wreak havoc.
O'Rourke and Warren were mostly solid but O'Rourke stumbled on the gun buyback question and Warren was vague on how to pay for Medicare for All. She proved, as Van Jones said on CNN, that she was mortal and vulnerable.
Gabbard really did not belong and I wish they had made room for Bennet and Bullock to attend this event.
