In case you had something more exciting to do last night – like clean the oven or sort out your sock drawer – and you skipped the Democrat debate on CNN, congratulations. You only missed one big progressive, populist snooze-fest. When the candidates are competing for the low-information vote, unfortunately the bar doesn’t need to be set very high.
 
 
Here, in no particular order, are my favorite re-caps of the evening ~
 
Dance of the Lemons ~ Seven lowlights from the dumbest debate in the history of the republic ~

At #DemDebate, Most Important Objective Was To Suck Up To Hillary ~ And boy did they suck
