Summary

Pull up a stool! There's lots to discuss following Tuesday's poorly run debate in South Carolina. First, Jim and Greg discuss how CBS allowed the debate to descend into an incoherent mess with multiple candidates talking over one another on multiple occasions, but they also highlight Elizabeth Warren's latest howitzer aimed at Mike Bloomberg, Joe Biden's latest statistical fiction, and Pete Buttigieg's attempt to claim the anti-socialist high ground. In addition, they slam the Charleston Democratic Party for charging outrageous prices for tickets to the debate. And they analyze Sanders' decision to leave South Carolina early in order to campaign for two days in Elizabeth Warren's home state of Massachusetts, which votes on Super Tuesday.
