The winner of the debate is.... the Democratic Party.

I thought all three of the leading candidates did great. What a contrast to the GOP. If anyone lost, it was Anderson Cooper. Bernie was the passionate and straight-talking populist that has filled all those big arenas. Hillary's came off as very presidential, and her command of policy shone through. Martin O'Malley finally got a chance to show everyone why he should be much higher than in the polls.

I watched the debate and then went straight to bed, I haven't heard or read any of the media analysis or spin yet. About to dive into that. But as of right now, I think supporters of any of these can be very happy about how their candidate did.
