Why Sanders may have "won" the debate

[HassleCat]

Notice how wishy-washy I am here? I don't think debates are usually "won" by either candidate, at last not since Jack Kennedy beat Richard Nixon. I think the debate may have benefited Sanders more than it benefited Clinton. Among Democrats who already have a preference, I doubt the debate influenced any to switch sides. However, there are a fair number of Democrats who say they were not aware of Sanders before the debate, and this was their first exposure to him. Without a debate, I assume the huge majority of these voters would go for Clinton. Among those who saw the debate, there would be a split of... what? The current split is something like 60/30 in favor of Clinton. What would be the split among these newly interested voters? They're less likely to be traditional Democrats, followers of the DNC, so I don't see them going 60/30 for Clinton. 50/50? 40/60 for Sanders? I would like to see a reliable poll.

1. WE have to stop talking about who won, the AMERICAN people won, because they

finally saw that our government actually has adults involved too.

They are so used to seeing the childish, whiny, racist, punk asses from you know where, that many forgot we actually have adults involved at some level.
