The Democratic presidential debate Wednesday night kicked off with fireworks, as every person on stage not named Mike Bloomberg attacking the former New York City mayor, who was participating in his first presidential face off.
The first hit at the NBC/MSNBC two-hour debate here came from frontrunner Bernie Sanders, who ripped Bloomberg for his record as mayor.
Next to swing at Bloomberg was Elizabeth Warren, who took aim at the mayor's past critical statements about women.
"I'd like to talk about who we're running against. A billionaire who calls women 'fat broads' and 'horse-faced lesbians,' and, no, I'm not talking about Donald Trump,” Warren said. "I'm talking about Mayor Bloomberg."
Amy Klobuchar took her shot next.
"I've been told many times to wait my turn and to step aside," she said. "And I'm not going to do that now, and I'm not going to do that because a campaign memo from Mayor Bloomberg said, this morning, that the only way we get a nominee is if we step aside for him," she said.
Moments later, Pete Buttigieg offered his criticism for Bloomberg
"Let's put someone forward who is actually a Democrat," Buttigieg said.

I knew that was going to happen to him after hearing about all the un-politically correct things he said. Amazes me he didn’t. I mean what did he think would happen? He joined a party that is perpetually offended about anything and everything except lying and evil, a party that considers a fake Indian and a communist good candidates for President, a party that considers enforcing the law offensive and racist. No sympathy for him whatsoever, he chose to put himself in the middle of the insane asylum
on the brighter side got hub’s subcontractor to sign up for voting (pubbie). first time ever and he’s 58!
of course we live in UPSTATE NY so we are lost to downstate.
Fortunately son in law moved from PA to MA so their vote won’t mess up PA
A box that you can SEE?
Why not a piece of cantilevered plate glass?
First debate I've watched, and I was amazed at how unhinged the guy looked. Definitely NOT Presidential.
The thought of any of these people being in charge of our nuclear arsenal scares the bajeebus out of me. None of them aside from Mayor Pete and Bloomberg looked even remotely stable.
You know the debate has reached a new low when it opens with references to fat broads and horse-faced lesbians.
Interesting that all the coverage I have seen has been about who got in the best shots on opponents. Haven’t seen any coverage of any ideas being discussed to help Americans.
And these two only look that way because of the crowd they are standing in!
A caller to Rush’s show said every Jew in New York has a crazy uncle like Bernie. At every family event, they are there...ranting and raving about how they hate capitalism and money, and how communism is the solution to all our problems.
Watched most of the debate.
Pray for our President. Nobody on the debate stage last night should qualify for a visitors pass to the White House.
I wondered the same thing so checked the caption. She was apparently from Telemundo.
I got a call from this pig’s campaign the other day, seeking $$$$ and support. I got hung up on half way through my rant concerning this pig. My wife was rolling on the floor laughing and asked, who the heck did you just jump on? After I told her, her comment was: “who is Bloomberg?” She doesn’t keep up with this crap. I told her he was a Dimocommie nut case, ex-most everything, from NY Homocity. She said, “oh.” And that was it!!!
“OK, give me the Cliff Notes here: Who crawled away from this dumpster fire still intact, if anyone?”
Gabbard, and she wasn’t on the debate stage. If anything, Gabbard can use these dumpster fires to her advantage.
You applied reason that doesn’t apply
More democrats in critical places have seen the Bloomberg ads than watched and were influenced by the Nevada debate
