At tonight's Democratic debate in Detroit, Elizabeth Warren led a 1-2 punch with Bernie Sanders against a raft of conservative Dems who came at them like they were auditioning for jobs as Republican lobbyists.
The 1-2 punch of Warren and Sanders won the debate by making the case for a bold, progressive, transformational presidency that proposes big solutions to the big problems. The progressive tag team won because their bold ideas like Medicare For All, a Green New Deal, a wealth tax on Ultra Millionaires, universal child care, and more are both popular and good policy.
Warren made the defining statement of the primary: Progressives ideas like Medicare For All are popular when Democrats are strong and actually make the case instead of operating out of fear and repeating false Republican talking points.
