really a cheap shot by Warren accusing Biden and Amy of trying to curry favour with Moscow Mitch

She is looking more desperate as the debate goes on.

Good on her with going after Bloomberg, but between fher completely false statement about Buttigieg's healthcare, and other attacks, she is undoing a lot of good will.

Unless we send Moscow Mitch home, along with a few more, the GOP will continue to stop everything just because they can.

Anyone still laboring under the delusion that the GOP stands for anything other than unadulterated power has not been paying attention.

Joe Biden deserves our respect. Nonetheless, if he believes what he says (that he can work with the GOP as currently constituted), his judgment has surely failed him.

Biden especially would have far greater coattails than Warren. Also, it is disingenuous to say that we can just complete cut off the Senate, as literally nothing would get done unless the next POTUS tries to one up even the monster Trump and govern 100% by executive fiat, which, of course, is impossible as well as being unconstitutional.

Except I worry about Senator Sanders

And if we don't win 60 seats in that Senate?

And the GOP grinds the government to a halt?

There is no fever to burn out there, friend.

There is simply the GOP's complete subjugation to the kleptocrats for power.

There is no working with that.

There is reconciliation
And executive orders
And everything else that sits in responsible government hands.

That is what we will have.

Agree that Joe Biden has long coat tails. Elizabeth Warren's are long too. Still remember being "schooled" about her multiple qualifications years ago by two smart women from very red states. Her candidacy would be a happy surprise for you.

Warren has so much substance that she doesn't need to let the individual attacks go too far.
