The Bell!

++Both candidates closed strong. Hillary reminded people that Bill balanced a budget and that the Republicans saw fit to give tax breaks to the wealthy and run the economy into a ditch. She also outlined her agenda for the first days of her administration. Bernie closed with his rap on the economy. Both ended graciously to each other.

++Sweeney Todd mucked things up by raising process questions about how you can get Paul Ryan to bring up bills and ,aren't you Hillary, going to be as hated as Obama?

++Josh Marshall felt that the acrimony between the two camps gave off the fireworks in the first half but both seemed calmer in the second.

++At the tailed of the debate there was a sole question on climate change. Hillary Clinton went for alternative fuels. Both Hillary and Bernie nailed Flint,Michigan and the racial component.

++Doubtful whether it will move the meter in New Hampshire but it should ignite more enthusiasm for the Democrats in general.

++There were a few misspeaks by Hillary and also one gaffe of mentioning that Henry Kissinger endorsed her.
