I've been leaning Sanders so far, but I'm really liking O'Malley tonight

but then again, I'm a middle aged white male with a better than high school education, so there's that factor...

Of the three remaining, I think they're all head and shoulders better than any of the GOP candidates. Have no doubt on that.

...but Sanders seems to be doing better as the night goes on!

He's on fire and making incredible points--even getting rousing applause from the audience for his last point on the economy!

Go Bernie!

He has shown he is very good at being diplomatic and strong on pushing for what is in our best interests at the same time. I love that so much. Also if something happens where he surges ahead of Bernie I will be A-Okay with supporting him as my dream of President Bernie fades if it comes to that. Hillary not so much, but she convinced me she is better than Republicans.

has earned a lot of respect from me. He didn't throw them under the bus. I believe in no religion, but I hate what the world has done to smear all Muslims. I watch how people treat brown people, all kinds of brown people.

I think he would be great he might even be out of the mold of Jimmy Carter who was also a great peace broker.
