This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Who
hello and welcome to this debate reaction edition of the five thirty eight politics podcast, I'm due
drink. It was a big debate. Literally there were twelve people
stage and it lasted three hours. It also forced the
reporting leaders to confront important developments in their campaigns. Warren differ.
Her newly minted position as front runner Biden responding to trumps attacks on Ukraine and Sanders addressing his health posed hearted.
So how did role play out and did anyone outside of that top three tier break through here with me to discuss
our editor in chief mate, Silver Hague Galen, enjoy that debate. I thought was interesting debate,
congratulations to the Boston nationals being nationally representing the World Series,
And also here with us is managing editor, make a common area Hulu and
Germany has remotely is Senor politics. Redder clam alone has again yell and tat are so chemist
we're going through, maybe quaintly those three
main developments facing the top three candidates, so Elizabeth Warren. This was her first debate as arguably these,
on or maybe co front runner. How did that pan out for her? It was was very different from
and being a promoter. She got farmer
talk time than anyone else. She took a lot,
incoming fire, including from candidates such as mere peat and club char, who had been
relatively congenial and kind of meek in previous debates, and I think it too difficult
an to evaluate, I know it's was a cop, I kind of went to see kind. I want to see what pulsate about it about her performance. You no kind of I thought that her answers on health care exe
You seem a bit evasive and not that great. I thought she mostly held up fairly
otherwise, I think sometimes
where's merely see that you're the centre of attention, a kind of sends a subliminal message to vote,
hey. Maybe you are the front runner.
A lot alot of Democrats come in liking, worn in the first place in our pulling with Ipsos. She had, I believe, the highest.
Net favorability rating. I think I may have had higher favourable, but she had the lowest
in writing. I believe, and the best net in September
come in kind of wanting to think that debate
Well for worn, and so if we spend ambiguous and am I kind of creative- come out fine for every day if
one of the front runners and you dont totally screw up. Then then
usually wines up? Ok, ok, proposition for you.
Claire. What did you make of how Warren
an old, her first debate as that front runner? Well, you know
think it was certainly a different dynamic for her. I think she suffered in some ways from having a couple of people attacking her and
Moderate moderators will let you kind of answer. If your name
has been mentioned in someone's statement, but here
being mentioned so much that she sort of by virtue of the number of responses being lobby did her lobbed at her didn't really get to respond to. Everyone
I think war and being at the centre stage, was actually in some ways a good thing for Biden. You know he was one person who looking at the end of the night, I thought well
He wasn't didn't get as much speaking time, but he also
and have as much time to mess up or say.
Something kind of blunder ie and yes, he had to address over the Ukraine stuff, but in some ways Bs Biden wasn't treated as the front runner by the other candidates or even in some instances, the moderators, but Warren,
you know she was taking incoming fire to use the over use, metaphor and Biden, which is kind of like protein, not gaining any supporters, but not hurting himself, so yeah it. It was kind of hard for
to tell. I have the same general thoughts that night and clarity in the same instinct that, like a kind of animal, just wait to see what the poles say,
No, I'm always impressed by worn in these debates she just really quick on our feet. Rhetorically. There was just one moment, for instance, where Buddha Judge sort of attacks her.
Explicitly or implicitly, I cannot remember as I always wanting to fight
and right away Warren turns out too. We know people struggling to pay healthcare or fighting right, and she, just like rhetorically rhetorical invested in the debate. She just really good. On those grounds. She also had
that moment in the exchange with Biden toward the end, where abiden
Wait, I think, was binds worse moment. The debate was
you know I kind of did that for you, it is kind of patronising right in Vienna. Frankly, I think kind of
verges into kind of a little gender sexist territory,
but she kind of pointedly several. I appreciate President Obama's yeah right, but then she didn't quite with
Not even that show like a lot of of discretion,
restraint yeah, and I think that showed a certain maturity right and she didn't like it into pointless fights rights
for example, when Harris, if my twitter, for you know that I think the notion that the President of the United States and left deep, let form from put her, is stupid idea saw it coming Harris by also thought she shall
Restrained therein like saying this as such,
idea dear. She say that by like, and I can even like she didn't you gonna wait my hand and say you know, you're looking so,
go ahead and and waste when in a few moments you get actually say it.
I'm Harrison's exchange so like so she's
playing along game,
Clearly there is nothing that happened to you
Beth Warren that will greatly injure her chance it. I overall agree with that problem.
Ray and, unlike you guys, I wants you to pull numbers, but I have been thinking
a lot about how Warren plays in the General
right like an that's, not a lot of people can
can kind of say like well, is the elect ability argument about
gender or race and like yes, it is, is the straight up answer, but also I'm I'm cute.
About warrants
policy ideas on health care and how they play
voters and the one place where I think, potentially she could have made some people
could have given some voters. A second thought, particularly frankly, and institutes
oh hi, or was consular Michigan where people
Democrats are kind of thinking about voting starts
quickly, even if they agree with Warren, and I wonder if the sharp attacks by
outta, judge and call Bashar in particular could stick with Warren.
This is another person, I'm not sure how his performance will have played with voters.
Castro was was nipped in the bud
or when he went after Biden but binary.
A liked Canada by lot of voters- and you know I think, in a period when, after a Rourke or work, isn't very popular, put a judge.
After Warren too and and I'm just I'm sort of
sure how that all plays out. I do have a sense that the voters,
Our concerns in some ways about her left positions on health care and whether or not they will freak people out to that point. The other campaigns seem clearly convinced,
They are trying to get warrant to say. I'm gonna have
raise taxes on the middle class to get to pay for my health care plan, warm refuses to say right,
the other campaigns are clearly convinced that a vulnerability for her they keep bringing it up. They brought up in previous debate that really went after her in this debate. For it I guess I'm just
I'm sure that voters are really gonna like that that voters paint
close attention and, like you know, maybe
the general election liability as clear said, but I don't know what was in it: a real vulnerability for common Harris, for example, in the second debate where, before which she released her healthcare plan that was kind of somewhere in between the General Sanders Medicare for all and the Biden, let's double down
Obama care and it made her kind of look silly and unable to like pinned down her position. I don't think we know, I think me
be that had a role in Harris's decline, but one warrants just been a lot more adept at at responding to it in she's been a lot more
at not answer registered yeah. I mean it's boldly, not answering yeah, but that's politics right is like you. Try to maintain these vague stances emanate. I feel, like we're overlooked,
one important dynamic, which, frankly national
didn't I still occur the debate itself, but is more occurring in the background which is tonight there
Zat Bernie
Can we reduce by will be endorsed by a sea and two other members of the squad receded frame and economic and Johan Omar? And if you kind of follow
Some comments that Bernie has made an Bernie has been kind of gentle ungracious. In these comments it hasn't been like super vicious or anything.
But also we can read like a lot of the debate.
Only online left.
You have seen rapid of Warren Verses, Sanders tensions,
you have seen them go after another. There is no
Hungary ceasefire so to speak after centres as heart attack
and I think having these quite prominent, and
fairly popular but quite locally anti,
I we Democrats get by bernie- is gonna kind of further blow up the anti establishment slashed left nexus of. Like
and he were burning versus war and conflict and a kind of one COS
for war and is: could she get squeeze?
by on the one hand,
Bernie having a little bit of revitalization on the left.
And then on the other side of it people,
in the moderate lane or a little too concerned about about issue too far,
left anyway,
maybe if Buddha, church or
but char rise there, starting to kind of people off a few voters who drift
from bite in the world are not that many those I dunno but like. I do think this kind of question of data
sure currently committed to warrant they dug in their dug, in that she does not much to worry about. She has to be by nurses
who surges right at their knocked again and if Bernie can back, I thought he had a good night. A few percentage point on the left.
Becomes more interesting and she has to decide whether hey am I going to fight for sport in the left behind.
Can see them go. There's some of it
Just to her saying you know what ok a lie,
a general election voters, don't like the squire. I will at the Squire endorse
name and kind of subliminally were not so solemnly kind of some.
Message to voters at like he is the one who
and I establishment
worry required and poor Democrats look
can the one who normal liberal Democrats like a night
thank you. Now. It's really interesting dynamically. Anything any more interesting than Clare. You ve been tracking, like left politics over the past few years, and what do you make of the endorsement.
To be honest, I was a little surprised.
By a Aussies endorsement, if only because it
there was a lot of. There is a lot of momentum by war in the polls. It seems like you know if he is willing to work with policy, is willing to play nice with more.
Establishment democrats in a war and as a woman I thought maybe that might be tilting her in her favour, so its interest
to me that she is supporting Sanders, although obviously not totally out of the realm of the expected. I think it's interesting.
That IONA Presley hasn't come out yet endorsed mean. Maybe she
who knows. Obviously there
in war and are from the same states you know
who knows if she's gonna come out and endorse war into them
couple days who knows it? Burns gonna come out and she's gonna come out and endorse Bernie. Who knows there is
I think, some sense from people who are, I think, but basically there's like a cat
split in some ways between people who on the left, who have remained
or hard core Bernie, an item
to boil down to like war and how
gotten a lot of those Clinton voters, those more maybe college, educated well off,
Craddock voters, who supported Clinton the primary but perhaps have some buyers
rat or say, Yanks headed, unlike Bernie, but maybe he was doing something right and I think, like a,
see and ill Hon, Omar and Rashid to leave really pride themselves on having working class
roots right and representing those communities and burning.
Andrews. I think, still does in many ways speak more
Viscerally to those communities than say Elizabeth Warren, you know no
a war zone, background of being pretty working class
so. There's just sort of this interesting class, I'm in
play within the left that I think
We're seeing with these these three women endorsing Sanders. We have a lot to talk about in this debate
cabin. Maybe the topic of these endorsing
come up again when we talk about standards, but let's move on to bite and for right now, but
had to address the issue of president trumpet?
I can him on Ukraine, his son Hunter Biden, suggesting that you know the role he played was inappropriate. So what was
tact going. I mean it wasn't a big topic during the debate, but how did he addressed that I thought for such a predictable question? His answer was somewhat garbled, but it basically game came down to listen. That's not the real issue. This year is Trump, but I tend not to think actually who have much of an issue with this in the democratic primary. I think almost all voters will be.
Predisposed to view it away biting laid out, which is that the real question is about what my son did it's about. What trumpeted, but still I you know, I just thought it. I would actually put bide ends
sort of non polished responses to a lot of these questions in the same bucket as war ends refusal to sort of gives specifics on her plan to pay for health care. In that a lie,
People like every time. I see biding, give one of those rambling answers. I I I think. Oh that's! That's not gonna play well,
but ass a really her. I don't think it's her too much so far. I don't know. Maybe it has so it sort of just like away a wait and see approach yeah. I knew I think you have to adjust
a little bit. If you can't know following the debate on line onto errors, we do that, like Democrats on Twitter are not the biggest Joe Biden, fans have to break it to people.
You know it's like a lot. I felt like we have like a lilies Biden debates with the exception of the first one where he was like
I think quite battle. Even then that man was constantly on the debate right, this kind of thing of like
by now, he's holding up
pretty well on any as some moment where the end. You know that was last week but like phone,
have to record briars right this time. I think the kind of final
change with centres and more in, but this time I think
kind of came the negative parts but came furthest into the debate
and where the least obviously bad luck I might intuition is like, like we said earlier,
like. I don't think that a change of oil will play that great. But I don't remember you know the lowest
for his scatter hang on like a twenty eight percent of voters at like him now right right, obviously, no longer you have to win some presented, a seventy percent who dont have yours. I dont have him as their first choice right now
But but I don't know I mean I think, given that, like he knew the queen,
we're coming on Trump in Ukraine, it got thought it could have been a bit more forceful. I thought he was mostly pretty good on the foreign policy sections. You know. I think it helped him not
be having these long exchanges and stuff like that. But let's dive into the let's dive into the bite in Warren,
because not only without a striking moment where, where behind
it was like, but by cunning yelling at war and saying I got you boats and theirs
The consumer Financial Protection Bureau issue yeah. I thought that was one
several moments where
bite in. I would almost
that one of the binding campaign strategies going into tonight was hey, look for a couple moments
be really really forceful. I don't know what that was in, maybe it maybe it was about questions about age, but biding did it in his. I think it was his
using statement here now got up. Yet where is like? You know it was like almost yelling, but anyway, I don't know about that.
In general or the yet said, or the worn exchanged in particular Clare did you. You thought that was an odd exchange.
Right. I didn't think it was odd so much as a almost naked
play of their dislike for each other, worn and binding.
Known each other for a very long time and have always been been within the demo.
Party kind of ideologically opposed to each other, and I think throwin to that. The fact that he was kind of trying to get in
his whole, like Master of the Senate thing you know, I went in there and got votes for you and she
who was trying to say thanks Obama, no thanks Biden, and I think that you know we talked earlier about.
MIKE. I think said earlier that she was very disciplined in that moment
and she certainly was, I think disciplined is the correct word
You know. I think there were several I
that is to say it was gendered because I think,
ascension can often just play is like condescension.
Nothing more, but there were a couple times when I
the moderates one asked when, after Warren and coming from binding Buddha
A couple of the moments were a little bit. You could categorize them. As you know, withering.
The point of awkward.
You know to watch it unfold, but Warren
is is disciplined, and
response and sort of wanted to say the right thing, which is I like Obama,
I will not see my ground that Joe Biden made my baby of an agency happen.
You could just kind of sea was a little bit of like a cold smoulder on her part. This debate more than any debate we have had so far. I feel
least confident in my appraisal of sort of how voters will react to it may be the safest assumptions they won't react at all. That's been savers. Options are far more or less interesting that several of the candidates sort of said.
We ve had this discussion time and again right. They were, I mean, and you almost
like they were sort of. Speaking to the voters saying like yes, we understand that your irritated that we're having the same discussions for three hours in front of you again and again
and it mostly seem to come over their fight about health care and you suck or Corey Booker.
To be the cheese guy
This doesn't look good that were fighting amongst each other, can't we all be a little nicer, an ice, and it's just
there was. There was a certain like her
steer we'll quality to all of it, where
four hours after the start time or whatever time it is. We are we're all kind of like well
for us the right moment. What we're not consumer of this, though, like most people right, we ve watched every minute.
Of every debate and yet are,
Let's move on and talk next about how Sanders responded to questions about his age, post, heart attack and I'm going to get into some other broader questions. But first today's podcast is brought to buy zip recruiter, hiring can be a slow process. Here's an example,
I fail to see our Dylan Mescal ET needed to hire a director of coffee for his organic coffee company, but he was having trouble finding qualified applicants, so you switch to zip recruiter. Zipper critter doesn't depend on candidates, finding you it finds them for you. It's technology identifies people with the right experience and invites them to apply to your job
so we get qualified candidates fast, Dylan posted his job on the and said he was impressed by how quickly he got candidates to apply. He also use it. Recruiters candidate rating feature to filter his applicants, so he could focus on the most relevant ones.
And that's how do found his new director of coffee in just a few days,
Why is it? Recruiter? Is effective for businesses of all sizes tries it recruiter for free at this web address, zip, recruiter, dot, com, slash five, three: eight! That's zip recruiter, dot com, slash five, three eight! The number is not the letters Zipper Carter. The smartest way to hire today's package is,
so brought to you by. Hence sixty six percent of men start to lose their hair by age. Thirty five, and once you ve noticed setting hair, it can be to wait
best way to prevent more heavy loss is to do something about it. While you still have some four hymns dot com is a one stop shop for hair loss, skin care and other wellness supplements for men. No snake oil pills or gas station counter supplements just prescription solutions backed by science answer. A few
the questions are doctor what we're view and if they determine its right for you can prescribe you medication to treat her lost, that his ship directly to your door. Listeners can get started with the hymns complete haircut for just five dollars today. Right now, while supplies last and subject to doctors, approval see website for full details and safety information. This could cost hundreds if you went to the doctor or pharmacy somewhere else, go to for hymns dot com slashed five, three eight, that's f, o r h. I M ass Dotcom, slash five three: eight for hymns dot com, slash five, three eight or we're back. This was the first debate that Bernie Sanders attended. The first debates
his heart attack and faced direct questions about his age. As a result. How did he answer those well there's how he answered them. Implicitly, enhanced and explicitly
I thought I look lively. I thought Bernie look good. I like
I thought I'd there I'll. I thought he had a good debate. Really good debate.
I think it was burning strongest before
it's a hour in my country when the better distillation to Bernie we ve seen, including in any of the twenty eight. Sixteen debates, you Know- and he doesn't feel
well calibrate. As far as picking the right,
levels of aggression,
It can differently, increase the volume on his voice little. I thought that was mostly funding towards
it had kind of feeling,
Little bit more. Like burn talking about billionaires. I do think that lie,
are sometimes when Warren seems more empathetic. I thought the way kind of
to answer the question about pay basely, you wanna be punitive two billion errors and he's like well yeah
and she's like no. We just pay their fair share because it takes a village. I do think it.
More effective in the long run by party was did quite well for himself. I happened to not
think that one of the stronger moments was like the literal question about age, a kind of
by saying. Well we're gonna, big rallying Queenstown turns out going be ruled
YO see and perhaps other endorsements
You know voters are concerned about the
age and health of of Bernie
even and more so Bernie after the heart attack,
The media ink seems reluctant to press for fun.
Option stuff like that, and I
thinking really kind of addressed ACT directly devoted she might actually be concerned about it, but
but I also am not sure like what what he's
to say- and here I know where my like
my biased, shine through cause I'd be in favour. Constitutional amendment saying that you should not be able to run for the term for president or first term, if your
the age of seventy five, just like you can't, if you're under thirty five, and so that's my biased, I taken away, not Americans freedoms. What but
by the same reaction to you that I thought his explicit answer on health and age like it wasn't bad, but it just wasn't very, very memorable, but I tend to think in this goes back to what we were talking about last week, that it's actually be implicit stuff, just how he, how he looked on
it's how he sounded on stage that matters more, and I would not be surprised at all if you know those polls that ask how concerned you're about to interpose age or health, if we start to see Bernice numbers sort of like revert back to where Biden is. In other words, if you start to see that
a card attack bouts fade bright aid a bit as a reminder. It was forty. Three percent of democratic voters said they thought. Bernie Sanders was too old. It was twenty eight percent Biden and four percent always above warrant twenty ape ignorant if it, if its twenty eight percent fur Bernie rather than forty three percent. That's a big improvement. It maybe is still a problem, but but
I think, as numbers will improve on that front anyway, Biden addressed or was he said that he was gonna put out a bunch of information about his health? I don't know that's meaningful to people, but
item, to contrast himself with Trump
clear. What did you make of how that interaction went down and kind of how Bernice come on? I think there are questions going into this debate of like is he we do? How do we describe it valedictory? What do they answer? The heart,
an old plant. Oh, I don't really think I ever had new question about how Bernie Sanders would act on the lid debates did, which is just how we did right, which is like I'm still here. I want to win this. I was gonna ask if we
if, like who the closest analogue in electoral history is,
you sanders- says election time heart attack, would it be Dick Cheney Bill Bradley, have
heart condition in two thousand. I dont think you
pair I mean Dick Cheney is piloted literally the closest, but I dont think
VP yeah. I don't think you can. George W Bush had questions about his health when he was running for his second term in nineteen. Eighty to remember, there isn't like passing out such vomiting in Japan. Yeah. I guess it's like you know. It's funny thing aware
I mean, I think it makes it makes voters uncomfortable, especially if their sanders supporters, because
makes you a just addressed the idea of mortality in general. You know that this person that you
can admire could be dead or incapacitated in the span of,
forty eight years is sort of a dark thought. So
maybe this is getting like. I don't know what it is, but, like
Maybe he gets a bounced back, because people have some his supporters will kind of say like
you seem fine and wrote you dont want to address the idea that, like while he had a heart attack, smaller or sort of you know assent procedures very regular, but very typical for a person,
his age? I just find it to be sort of this really odd mixture of sir
Europe has a very particular kind of base. That kind of would love the come back from a heart attack. Underdog story, no one. I think that clear. I think that extends beyond this base like actually, I think it it makes him sympathetic right. You gonna wanna routes for for someone who has overcome
our problem, it also frankly, though, just psych to be really crass about it puts like a frog.
Spin on a candidate who has been
essentially running the same campaign? Fir wood like five six years right? Ok,
Are you sure it's good news, her Bernie Sanders when the media narrative is he had a heart attack
but now he seems, fine, but living like having other countries are alive all apply here, we're not sure we're not here, and I'm telling you. I guess, I'm just saying that I would
I'll, be surprised if,
Voters are more sympathetic to Sanders his message. He had a good debate, maybe they're more open to it
but also that the media is more sympathetic to Santa should like if Sanders did have a good debate and get a couple good Paul
duchess and her at you know two or three points up from way aware from where was before. I just wanna be surprised. It's like it's in ITALY.
One thing: I dont think that the media will be sympathetic to Sanders, though I mean I think you
already saw people. Writing
of irritating stories right after the heart sit incident before we knew it was a heart attack. They didn't let that press talked to his doctors. Writer
he still hasn't released is updated. You no medical history. I just have a hard time seeing media in general giving Sanders a pass on this girl, I'm just saying like,
it's kind of like when the FBI announce at o actually
Hilary e mail server is fine. You know people still her f B. I couldn t mail, I wonder about that and I asked think actually Sanders was treated
until we generally by the press about the heart attack
like what would have happened. Abiden no yeah but like, but like Mythology
it will not come back story, I think, between tonight
the rally and maybe most importantly, the three these endorsements- that he got he's curly, sending a message like don't give up on me.
Which is where something so, maybe a few of the people who migrate away from Sanders
the war. I a yang or something in the past couple weeks will come back. Maybe
a off kind of further downward movement. I still think the kind of fundamental critique of centres applies, which is that right
I started getting quite figured out how to,
he'll beyond kind of core fifteen percent, which is not just like lead.
But also anti establishment left.
Squad endorsements. Are
on brand they're, not they're, not stretching into
New type of indoor show that you might not have expected
another question have is like, will work
now say trust
kind of mainstream members of the laughed right we'll they
he'd come ACCA, she has not had any endorsements either was so that's the thing is I owe you, you brought up the idea earlier name of Warren getting squeezed and something Perry Bay.
In one of our writers- and I have been talking about- is the fact that if you look at our endorsement tracker,
Warren for someone who has been steadily climbing, the pause has picked up. A surprising
with few number of endorsements like very, very few and so I'd I may be there,
fighting their time, I do wonder little Biddeth. Worn, is not quite so acceptable to the establishment, as may be. Some of us thought just because we were concerned
the sand, but to pick some names at random, but I wonder if I could Tammy Baldwin is a centre in Wisconsin
Patty Marine Washington right some of the more liberal female member.
Do you wonder they'll be alone little more pressure on her and again we are kind of believers that endorse
matter, although it's kind of weird, because usually the endorsements are like the sign of what the
most is doing so
I quite sure how we're supposed to kind of,
A party decides figuration configuration gonna, think about like how does an anti establishment endorsement
figure in a
yeah. Well, we also just don't know like to what extent the endorsements are.
Signal averse cause or whatever yeah. You know. We're
but it's blaming so far what its role as the party has plundered and not making a decision yet totally that's the main thing: they have not made a decision or show it's getting late here by,
let's spend our final moments on the candidates who were not in the top three. So first as wrong, broad question our former colleague and friend,
Harry Enten crunch some numbers before this debate and said something along the lines of looking at history. Since one thousand nine hundred and seventy two there's a fifteen percent chance, approximately of the person who
to win. The democratic nomination is not Biden, Warren or Sanders teams about right.
That's right. So if there's that fifteen percent chance, who is it did we learn anything from tonight's debate about who that could be? So if it, if its not Biden, worn or sanders, I would pick mere PETE
because he can of like almost like mean PETE appeared on,
form anything about british as a shot.
Obviously in my book, was her,
a new phase for Buddha judge. It was kind of like almost like mean
appeared on stage right a little bit more
holds barred. And I think you can you can
directly chalk that up to the Iowa focus that his campaign has. He sees Warren as the biggest threat
and in some ways he's trying to crowd Biden out of his moderate lane and that's a pretty good tactic because by his camp
is on the record as up we don't have the Iowa or even New Hampshire, necessarily we're gonna start
you know that's a South Carolina Buddha judges, team,
might be seeing that saying, fine, let's, let's take all,
voters in Iowa and Paint Elizabeth war-
as too far left to get elected with midwestern Democrats and, let's go to town-
to me. I mean that it was
In some ways like demarcation from
of how a different modes.
Judge can be in. I think he was much more aggressive
and much less Vienna, nice New could on the back right? It was almost kind of him saying
we seriously my pull numbers
I urge you to do so, and I am willing to play hardball and not be deferential
to these, to be no big well now,
people on the party. Yes
God moved, I think, because he has now like overtaken Harrison the poor,
Just the way was set up right. I was actually like in often the frame of the shot of the top for candidates out of twelve cause. It's even
so I guess you actually did like take advantage of that small,
and she has ever over Harrison. Recent polls and like kind of literally look,
like he's more centred, he's pretty good these debates,
he has a fair amount of money. He has applause
half an hour. I dont know if you can,
solid enough for the party to wean after
I were. I dont know how he would withstand a period where he face a lot of stuff
me about about him.
Experience right. It is like you know it's late.
It's gonna Nate like telling
I get it as I do think like made on red ball telling it like needs after hours,
Do they get a lie? Ran like hey. You are were mare of aid,
medium to small sized town and in Vienna, and when we present the United States- and you think, there's like a round of scrutiny, but you can imagine like Buddha, cherry picking,
the right time, and so, if you're giving me like, if you give me,
ten per cent to spend
in view of
six, a ban on british catcher, something oh, I might be more than that. I mean here he is in double digit anymore, in an average of Iowa Paul's, basically in double digit in an average of New Hampshire Postman, he's he's doing way better there than anywhere else, but most of its borders
but how can I have a great night on Tuesday night till I know you know, maybe Buddha Judge solidifies his place as the fourth Canada. I do think.
It is right that it'll be really interested watch. It did feel like this was a different strategy by british judge. Tonight. Does that does that play
how does that play poorly Ivan means? No idea. I mean Harris like what she got. No, like four percent, will initiate an r c p.
I don't know man, I know four percent is an ally.
But if I were weren't or premature biting or anyone at five point. Two percent in r c b ivy
if a five point, two percent- and so can I pick off a pointer
value, because she was
not very present in the debate. I thought your answer on actually start was really good.
And maybe we could have gotten longer, I kind of probing the county tomorrow and what their patient strategy would have been enough like that right, it's of about
and George W Bush at the end
I'm not asking by the way about
China and in
there are more if climate and eight or climate change seemed like China, and climate change will be to really interesting things. Ask about
as we ran up here, any other people of note to a lot that fifteen percent to Clare

Us Tom'S dire, he got on stage in more fun tie by its
it did this does not of its now
I dont think twelve people deserve to that stage. You now
I think it is at that point where,
maybe six or seven, but certainly
twelve, and I think that a lot of those people kind of bore it out
maybe call Bashar bade them. Some valiant efforts to sort of she spoke a lot, a tonne
dear. She kind of made a valiant effort to be spunky midwestern, moderate pilot. I.
Have a hard time seeing
the validity of so many people being up their yeah.
And we may declares point start to see some winnowing soon. Some the fund raising numbers also show people I mean who leaned Castro. Did he do anything in this debate? He also there were. There were four people on that stage who have not yet made. Then
Amber debate and that's really on Castro Amy Club, which are totally
a and better work. Yeah
I don't know of any of those. Four people made their case for why they should be on the staging a rubber, no one else:
you, some of the fundraising numbers coming in, don't look great for some of those people and show them come spending more than their taking in. So I think I think, there's right that you, the next.
And certainly the one after that. I think maybe I was sorry to see smaller and smaller field, or I will lead
