Even broke out a Top Gun reference. That's right Ice Man, I am dangerous.

He's got no shot in Florida after that Castro answer but he smacked her around a little a bit. Which I thought was offensive this close to International Women's Day but definitely needed.

    Either way she still gets some of his income.

    I've been a big fan of Bernie the man through all of this (I just don't agree with his politics). I was pretty disappointed with his unwillingness to condemn Castro. Almost as bad as Trump playing dumb over David Duke.

    I agree he schooled Hillary otherwise though.

    Sanders has a ton of admirable personal qualities. And I believe he is basically honest, which is no small thing and completely the anithesis of Clinton (and the GOP candidates as well).

    And on the issues related to personal freedoms and rights, I tend to agree with him at least 81% of the time.

    The rest...no thanks.

    As a person, Bernie is the only admirable candidate in the entire race. I just wish he didn't have to couple that with his extreme leftism and nonsensical promises.

    His answer on immigration in 2007 is a better one than the pandering he did last night

    Despite the strong performance last night Bernie has consistently been under prepared for debates. The fact that they didn't see a Castro question coming and he wasn't ready to condemn him is really bad. It's hard to imagine he thinks Castro was some great leader, I think he just got caught up in a question he wasn't ready for.

    Just to be clear "nonsensical promises" in this context are "things the majority of Americans support".

    “In 1959 […] everybody was totally convinced that Castro was the worst guy in the world and all of the Cuban people were going to rise up in rebellion against Fidel Castro,” said Sanders. “They forgot that he educated their kids, gave their kids healthcare, totally transformed the society.”
