Charlie Sykes: “Say what you will, but the Sweet Meteor of Death finally arrived last night. But, apparently, it was aimed at Mike Bloomberg.”
“Sure, he still has $60 billion to fix the mess, but five minutes into the debate, Bloomberg had been transformed from possible centrist savior to an extra in the Night of the Living Dead.”
“It was that kind of night. a six way clusterfuck with moderates attacking moderates, geriatrics talking about their stents, Pete on Amy, Amy on Pete, and Liz Warren lashing out at just everyone. That was an odd choice for Warren, who needs to win the progressive lane against Bernie Sanders, but seemed to devote most of her considerable energy to attacking the late Mayor Bloomberg, Amy Klobuchar, and Pete Buttigieg in no particular order.”
“At a moment when Democrats needed to focus on derailing the prospect of a Trump-Sanders death march they spent the night knifing one another with various degrees of relish. It was a murder-suicide worthy of an Agatha Christie novel. The one where everyone ends up dead.”
