I am an O'Malley supporter but think Sanders handled himself well.

And I agree that the pundits had already written the Hillary wins articles before the debate started. There's been zero coverage on her evading answers on social security and DREAM Act. They've also ignored all the focus groups who have given Sanders the win and the twitter/Facebook responses showing Sanders and O'Malley were most impressive.

I thought Anderson was mostly fair. O'Malley had to work for his spots and did well. FSogol Oct 2015 #11

Thanks for posting that. MH1 Oct 2015 #12

IMO, there really wasn't a winner at the first debate. The top 3 did good. FSogol Oct 2015 #13
