Democrats lacked breakout moments

The Oct. 13 Democratic debate in Las Vegas reflected how the Democratic Party is advertising nonsensical policies to win over voters.

The debate quickly turned into a contest over who was the most radically liberal, and, as Marco Rubio pointed out, each candidate vied over who could “give away the most free stuff.”

The candidates waved promises of free health care and free college education for illegal immigrants, but provided little insight into how they would accomplish this besides establishing new taxes.

The candidates showed how the Democratic primary race will be a race to the left to see who is the most pro-big government.
