She comes across as serious and I thought her response on the staffer interaction was good. Becerra also did well but I thought he was less prepared or didn’t have enough notes. Agreed on the Rethugs coming off poorly (cranky and arrogant). Steyer was slick but that’s my problem with him (and I don’t see his business background helping at all!).

Is there going to be another debate?
