Hillary didn't win the debate, but she still won anyway

[Freddie Stubbs]

Why? Because she didn't have to win. She is already the front runner, so all she had to do was hold her own. Which she did. Sanders did a great job as well, but neither candidate really outshined the other.

1. I think she and Sanders did what they needed to do.

She looked polished and presidential and had no major gaffs. He introduced himself and his issues to a wider audience who don't live and breathe this stuff like most of us here do. I think Sanders won on issues, had a good night, and I think his "damn e-mail" moment was probably a good one for him. I expect he'll get a bump, but it probably won't significantly change the dynamics of the race. And I would guess Biden won't get in. Just this Sanders' supporters opinion.

2. Hillary supposedly "won" before the debate even began, because the Democratic establishment is attempting to see to it.

The fix may be in for Hillary, but Bernie is not going to lay down easily for the banking and war machine lobby. Sorry Hillary.

Go Berrrnnniiiieeeee!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2016!!!

3. Bernie Sanders won hands down
