"And if there's one thing I will not permit, it is someone [running] down the field and kick my teammate in the face" Tom Steyer's closing statement was ... unique. h/t @PoliticoScott and @PoliticoCharlie for pointing this out on Nerdcast https://t.co/f8Bv2JJlRT — PolitiTweet.org

So, yes, the Democratic primary's clear-cut frontrunner is somehow managing to participate in these debates but not be the center of attention. And that seems ... fine for him? — PolitiTweet.org

Per WaPo's tracking, Biden spoke the third least amount of time during December's debate. Tonight, he spoke the second least amount of time. Across both debates, only Steyer has spoken less. https://t.co/8aeAsply0l https://t.co/SsMhHe4ZKf — PolitiTweet.org

@emilycadei @davecatanese also, again, feels as if the field has all internalized lesson that going negative hasn't worked for some former rivals. Combined w/no runaway front-runner to target, that's how you get a debate that feels as if took place in September not January https://t.co/uhgtMhQWoV — PolitiTweet.org

with @emilycadei, @davecatanese, and myself. Did the debate change the race's trajectory? Even w/so many undecided voters, it seems unlikely https://t.co/uhgtMhQWoV — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

TAKEAWAYS: Few fireworks, plenty of substance as candidates offer respectful policy differences rather than personal attacks. Foreign policy finally gets its due Trade, too. Biggest moment was Warren arguing why she (and women generally) can beat Trump https://t.co/uhgtMhQWoV — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

oddly the best person to ask what was said was Tom Steyer, who was awkwardly standing right there — PolitiTweet.org

if the Democratic fundraising in the Trump era is unprecedented (and it certainly was in '18), then it follow that the fundraising for the nominee will be similarly unprecedented (barring some major party schism, which, granted, isn't impossible!) — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

still don't think we realize just how much money the Democratic nominee (whenever he or she effectively win the primary) is going to raise. They'll have a long, long way to go to catch Trump, but the numbers are likely going to be staggering — PolitiTweet.org
