the democratic debate from abroad, it's kind of wild, namely because you're not really in the

middle of it. Obviously, you are very far away, but also because of the time delays. So that means

that the Democratic debate ended in Israel about 6 a.m. Israel time, which made for a bit of a long night, a bit of a fraught night. I mean, if you think that Democratic debates put you to sleep, try watching them at 4 a.m. I mean, that will definitely make you want to hang yourself. But here's the truth. If you're a Democrat and you watch that debate, you got to be a little bit suicidal after watching that debate because it just made the Democrats look bad.

Right now, Joe Biden remains the sort of national frontrunner, according to the real

clear politics polling average, but Elizabeth Warren has pulled into the lead in both Iowa and

New Hampshire, where she has a slight lead in Iowa over both Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden,

and in New Hampshire, she has a very slight lead over Joe Biden. But Elizabeth Warren

was nothing to write home about last night. She really was not. She looked weak because, guess what?

Elizabeth Warren is running as this wild-eyed progressive, but she doesn't believe any of this

stuff. And so she refuses to actually say this stuff out loud. If she were a true believer like Bernie

Sanders, she just saved this stuff out loud, which, by the way, is one reason why Ilhan Omar and AOC and Rashida Talib are all talking about endorsing not Elizabeth Warren, but endorsing Bernie Sanders. That also shores up their sort of street credit. If they'd endorsed Elizabeth Warren, then they have to ride that hobby horse all the way to the election. If they endorse Bernie Sanders, who's going nowhere, then they get to look completely woke and completely committed

without actually having to invest any time or effort campaigning for somebody during the primary

season and or general election. With that said, the debate last night really had a couple of themes.

Theme number one, Elizabeth Warren under attack is not a strong candidate. Elizabeth Warren is great

when she is on her talking points. She's sort of like Mitt Romney this way. On the talking points,

good, pushed off the talking points, not so good. Because once she was pushed off her talking

points, she looked pretty weak last night. Joe Biden, meanwhile, he's past his prime. He's obviously

past his prime. He's sort of late stage Muhammad Ali in his boxing

career and he's losing to fighters he shouldn't lose to. And you can see this during the debates.
