If you read the online polls, it was Sander's sand box. Those polls are meaningful, but do not answer the top line question. The polls mean that Bernie is popular with the young, who are heavier internet users, and may also reflect an enthusiasm gap.
Thursday Bernie preached to the choir, while Hillary spoke to the world. Fire and brimstone dominated the 1st third of the debate. He railed against the sins of Wall Street and the outsize hubris of the big banks. Campaign money is the root of all evil, he bellowed. The chorus said verily it is so, and pointed at Hillary for taking the tainted money.
The last 2/3s of the debate were hers. With the first question on foreign policy she visibly relaxed and took control. She was enjoying herself. Bernie's economic message is powerful and concise, but her breath and depth of knowledge is dazzling.
