Bernie needed something to change tonight and nothing did.

Biden looked good up there and I suspect he seemed comforting to many in these COVID-19 times under Trump.

There were good moments by both, but Biden had to fall on his face for Bernie to gain ground. Instead the opposite happened. Biden was strong and presidential standing behind the podium. Making a clear delivery of his thoughts and platform. He looked Presidential! Again, I also suspect people were comforted, I know I was. We've had so much chaos to deal with and so many blows over the past 3 years.

Bernie took a gut punch over Castro. That one was a tad brutal. It's a good thing he's not going to be the nominee since there's zero chance he could carry Florida now.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
