Reflecting on the Democratic debate in Las Vegas as a progressive in New Hampshire, I recall Bernie Sanders was pretty quiet. He was performing well in Nevada polls at the time, so maybe he didn’t think he needed to push so hard. I’m not sure if that’s the right lane, but he did come out strong when Michael Bloomberg called him a communist and then had the audacity to drag him for having a couple of houses. As if that compares to Mike’s dragon horde of wealth.

Elizabeth Warren won it for me, far and away. She brought the energy needed against the plutocrat buying his way to the nomination and she roasted the moderates for their policy positions – all placeholders instead of #BigStructuralChange. We don’t need platitudes in 2020, we need #Plans.
