(12,221 posts)She comes across as serious and I thought her response on the staffer interaction was good. Becerra also did well but I thought he was less prepared or didnt have enough notes. Agreed on the Rethugs coming off poorly (cranky and arrogant). Steyer was slick but thats my problem with him (and I dont see his business background helping at all!).
Is there going to be another debate?

(12,221 posts)And Id frankly like another chance to hear Mahan because he surprised me in a good way.
I went into it pulling for Becerra and Im glad hes going to have another chance to make his case!

(24,850 posts)The R who is proud that tRump endorsed him committed hari-kari. The R sheriff (Bianco) who grabbed the ballots came off poorly, especially at a time when law enforcement is out of control. He seemed angry.
Becerra did well, Steyer was the best prepared and went in with a game plan, Porter was good IF she was able to put the bad behavior behind her. Cant see Mahan as governor.

Hilton seemed to be proud of trump. That won't work for him.
Agreed: Becerra and Mahan.

So, the next one is on the 28th, but streaming only, right? Then a televised one on CNN on May 5. Are there more planned?
