Democratic Debate 7 Review: Final Faceoff Before Iowa Caucuses Becomes Dull Night Of The Living Dead
‘s Brianne Pfannenstiel moderated debate saw the closely polling Sanders, Biden, Warren and Buttigieg display some slightly prickly skin in the game and willing to put drops of blood on the podium, so to speak. However, besides that Holy Grail of healthcare that trip up the passionate Dems over and over in legacy and execution, that blood was pretty thin and barely left a stain on the starched white shirts.
Tackling their tropes of economic and environmental policy and ignoring the widely supported issues of criminal justice reform and gun violence, the litmus testing Democrats appeared reluctant to truly engage with the urgency of the political moment, to paraphrase Sen. Warren. As no debate is an island, tonight also comes as Trump hit hard at foes, real and perceived, at a rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi prepares to formally transmit the articles of impeachment against the former Celebrity Apprentice host to the Senate after a vote tomorrow.
“The real danger that we face as Democrats is picking a candidate who can’t pull our party together or who someone who takes for granted big parts of the Democrats’ constituency, declared the Massachusetts Senator after receiving the loudest applause of the night for throwing up bragging rights that she and Klobuchar were the only ones onstage to never lose an election.
