Big Winner: Harris
Harris slayed Biden. He was a sitting duck up there and she came off much more Presidential.

Little Winner: Marianne Williamson
She is hilarious. Probably just took over the underdog hipster role from Yang

Big Loser: Biden
"Obama, Obama, Obama. My time is up"

Little Loser: Yang
...

Didn't improve or worsen: Bernie, Buttigeg
Sounded good when they spoke but the mods were clearly funneling questions to certain candidates (Biden, Bennet, Swalwell)

NBC should never get a debate again
 
Children are dying in their schools, and yet Biden won't criticise the NRA.
 
No one's watching this and people have actually heard of Biden. He won't fade easily.

He's dropped roughly 10 points in the last month and Harris (a lot) and Bernie (just now) did some pretty fundamental attacks on him. He's going to drop further I think.
 
That feels like the sort of assertion that requires data.

And there is evidence that primary debates can change people’s minds. Research by University of Missouri communication professors Mitchell McKinney and Benjamin Warner found that nearly 60 percent of study participants experienced a shift in their candidate choices after watching a debate.
