Question for Bernie Sanders supporters: what did tonight's debate achieve?

[brooklynite]

Did it change voters' minds?

Did it force Biden to push his policies to the left?

Did it rally progressive voters to support the Democratic nominee in the General Election?

1. Not a Sanders supporter, but firmly believe tonights debate did not move the needle

2. I'm still undecided this year

But I supported Bernie in 2016. I appreciated this debate because it laid out the issues and positions more clearly, especially on Biden's side, than we've had in past debates with so many candidates. I know their positions are on their websites, but what they choose to talk about is more indicative of what they will actually push for, IMO.

I'm closer to Bernie than Biden on policy and I was going to support the nominee no matter what, but after tonight I am a little happier about voting for Biden. He is not as progressive as I want, and I don't believe he's actually going to be as progressive in office as he says right now, but I do feel he would be very competent at managing a crisis like what we are facing.

They are both good men and that was on display tonight. I still would have preferred Warren over either of them though.
