I just watched the 2nd debate on YouTube.
Harris', IMO, contrived outrage about Biden's comments regarding those Democratic senators really left a bad taste in the mouth for me. It feels like a really cheap shot to pander to those on the left of the party, which seems to have sadly worked.
Similarly, Swalwell came across as an ass with his "pass the torch" comments. I liked how he aimed it primarily at Biden but it was Sanders who pushed back more strongly against it. Swalwell got a bit of revenge later on when he pressed Sanders on his views on guns, the topic on which Sanders seemed to particularly struggle. Sanders suggestion of there being scope within the constitution to rotate the Supreme Court judges was interesting (no idea if it's true)
Hickenlooper and Bennet were playing to the left of the party noticeably less than most of the other candidates, which was refreshing. Gillibrand was the candidate that most seemed to be in the middle of the party and one of the candidates that went into the most policy detail.
At this stage, if I could vote, I'd be fine with Biden but if the torch has to pass (
) then I'd be willing to jump on the Butteglig train, certainly more so than Harris.
