    Default Democratic debate quickly devolves into a scrappy schoolyard screaming match

    all of the candidates furiously talking over each other as the CBS moderators seemed helpless to do anything about it.


    CBS News moderators Gayle King and Norah O’Donnell struggled to keep the unruly seven candidates in line as they rushed to attack Bernie Sanders who they now realize is on an unstoppable march to the nomination.

    At one point, all of the candidates were wildly flapping their hands and yelling over each other before former veep Joe Biden chastised their on-stage decorum.

    “I guess the only way to do this is jump in and speak twice as long as you should,” Biden said
    as ex South Bend-mayor Pete Buttigieg went on a long sermon about how Sanders would cost Democrats the House majority, a statistic based on polling conducted by Bloomberg’s campaign.
    Showing more fire than he has in many debates, Biden shot back when Buttigieg and other candidates tried to cut him off after King has specifically called on him to speak.

    “You spoke over your time so I’m going to talk,” the former veep bellowed at the rest of the crowded field to huge cheers from the crowd.

    Biden is in a fight for his life in South Carolina ahead of Saturday’s primary, with Sanders and billionaire Tom Steyer swallowing his lead with black voters.

    When they match half of the batshit your Republican debates were in 16 you can complain. Debates seem like a waste of time anyway.

    Indeed.

    These children want to be the leader of the free world.

    I don’t think so.

    They've already surpassed it, boy.

    BTW, where are all the people of color representing the self proclaimed party of diversity? Seems the closet anyone on the stage comes to a person of color is mayor Pete and his color is pink.

    Doesn't that pretty much represent their constituents and how they constantly scream and yell for free stuff?

    Bernie started the hand-flapping bit lol.

    Someone should talk to him about it. It’s not a good visual.

    What was wrong with spastic Warren last nite? I thought she was PRO KILL IT.


    Now, she's acting like abortion is a bad thing. I don't get it.

    That was screechingly creepy..She's desperate, though.... and it's got to be Killing her knowing that Bernie will probably get the nod...which will guarantee another four years for President Trump...
    (I want to hear the story about how she was fired from her first teaching job in 1971 because she was pregnant again...)

    She is nutz. She would do far worse than Bernie against Trump.

    And yes, she has not been truthful about her preggers story.

    Democratic debate quickly devolves into a scrappy schoolyard screaming match

    Good Nazis like Trumpf avoid all this squalid democracy. Vote for the Five Million Year Reich and an end to all this wicked disagreement with your masters for ever!
