CNN did a lousy job. They allowed the candidates to tell blatant lies without challenge. And they asked stupid questions.

That's true, but it was still better than I expected. Remember the last debate - where each democrat got a 40 second applause for any comment? And Chuck Todd was sooooo on their side that it was like wanted to be on the stage. And he kept looking up like he was a 10 year old boy struggling to form an idea? Mic going off audio problems...

I just expected this debate to be worse. I guess my bar is pretty low for MSM/democrat debates.

Lemon was the dreadful with his 'Muslim Ban' talk and his leading questions... Guess you're right. Pretty bad.

I wish the moderators were informed enough to challenge the candidates on some of their comments. Medicare for all is so easy to counter. The 2019 Medicare Trustees’ report states that the Medicare Trust Fund will be exhausted in 2026. Medicare has been running in the red since 2008. Why would you expand a failing system? The average Medicare recipient receives three time more in benefits than he contributes to the system. And nine out of every ten Medicare recipients have private insurance (Medigap) to cover the costs not paid by Medicare. Bernie needs to be grilled on exactly what he means by Medicare for all. Medicare as currently structured is unsustainable.
