Word To Your Candidate!

Debate night.
Another debate.

This is the second debate of the year and first post Iowa Caucus. The caucuses ended in controversy.

It had two Democratic candidates effectively winning the caucuses but no declared winner.

The Democrats are now regrouping around one common foe, a billionaire who entered the race and is effectively winning support in a field that Donald J. Trump is calling "pathetic."

Trump has a 65% chance of winning reelection. I fear that one of these candidates will sabotage the eventual nominee. It will be a repeat of the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election. The far right will use the opportunities to defeat the Democratic nominee if we don't get our act together.

NBC News and MSNBC along with the Nevada Democratic Party hosts the debate being held tonight in Las Vegas. Six candidates are running for the Democratic nomination.

Leading in the pack is Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). The self-described democratic socialist is pulling ahead in the national polls and is hoping to win the Nevada caucuses. His newest foe is a billionaire who entered the race just a few months ago. Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg will debut on the stage and will face an onslaught of attacks from Sanders, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg.

The six candidates will have an opportunity to shine on a night that could be a "make or break" moment for those struggling.

This could be a long night for Warren and Biden. After disappointing finishes, Biden is hoping to regain his footing. He hopes to capitalize off his support of boss Barack Obama and the Black vote.


Who won tonight's debate?

Pete Buttigieg
Amy Klobuchar
Bernie Sanders
Joe Biden
Michael Bloomberg
Elizabeth Warren
Donald Trump
Other
Please Specify:

Warren is hoping to win back progressives who left her during the previous debates. Her lost in Iowa and New Hampshire has her all but eliminated.

Bloomberg is hoping to capture Biden's supporters. He hopes that Klobuchar and Buttigieg will collapse and he'll end up being the only candidate able to take on Sanders.

Now you are going to expect bad blood between the candidates. They're going to a bruising between candidates.

The event is being held at the Le Theatre des Art at the Paris Las Vegas Resort in Paradise (Las Vegas). The Nevada Independent, NBC News, MSNBC, Telemundo will host the event.

The moderators are Lester Holt, Vanessa Hauc, Hallie Jackson, Jon Ralston and Chuck Todd.

Tom Steyer and Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) failed to qualify
