There are still so many questions about what happened in Ireland. You can see that peat outta jail is presently leading the state delegate count with twenty seven percent Bernie Sanders with twenty five percent candidates are already looking towards New Hampshire, this opportunity society. People have shot for a great victory said. I moderate candidates, puberty vat and send your Amy publish our trail sanders breaking news from the democratic presidential race, where aid national pull out this morning shows the former New York mayor is now in second place with nineteen percent support behind Bernie Sanders, Michael Bluebird, whose lies at the polls is fuelled by more than three hundred million dollars in that spending. Mayor Bloomberg has not appeared on a single debates, age or a single ballot, but that will change tonight.

Its Alex Burns in LAS Vegas were whether they nights democratic debate was held ahead of the Nevada caucus this weekend from NBC News. The democratic presidential debate lie from LAS Vegas of this. The debate. We were all really waiting for because the first time Mayor Bloomberg has appeared on the stage and really is the first time he has engaged with other democratic candidates at all, since entering a race poles released over the last few days have shown Bloomberg overtaken Joe Biden nationally as the moderate runner up to Bernie Sanders the front runner thanks to hundreds of millions of dollars that Bloomberg has poured into advertising, but for most Americans this was the first time that they have really been produce to the man himself so going, and we knew that all the other candidates we're going to try to make that a rough introduction to scuff up the glossy image of himself. The bloomer puts in tv ads and right away. They did. I think we need something different than Donald Trump.

Think you look it Donald Trump and say we need someone richer in the White House are not going to win if we Have a nominee who has a history of hiding is tax returns of harassing women and of supporting racist policies like red lining and stop, and forest stopped and frisk stop and fruits, which one an american and latino people in and out rages way, throwing up for close to five million young black men up against the wall. That is not you're gonna grow voter turn up. They, of course, whenever stop and for us, kids, invasive policing policy as mayor of New York Furthermore, this? U turn us an incoming fire on this next topic, so, let's get into it it twenty fifteen. This is describe your policing policy as mayor quote, we put all the cops in a minute. Neighbourhoods, and you explain that is quote because that's what

the crime is an early on NBC moderator. Lesser hold asked Limburg to address it. He went on say and the way you should get the guns out of the kids hands is to throw them against the wall and first them. You ve apologise for that But what does that kind of language say about how you view people of color or people in minority neighborhoods? Well, if I go back and look at my I'm an office the one thing that I'm really worried about em back. About was how it turned out with stop and frisk and We started, we adopted a policy which has been in place the policy that all big. Police departments use of stopping frisk. What happened? Was it got out of control from the beginning? He struggled with his responses. We have to keep the lid on crime, but we cannot go

stop people right may indiscriminately or that you know this was the number one question the Bloomberg would have known was coming more than any other policy issue. This is the one his campaign as worried about from the start of the race, but I've sat, have apologised, ask forgiveness, but the boom is not a man known for his political agility or his comfort, expressing contrition or for his thick skin, and it showed, and if we look off everybody that was wrong on this off this panel, everybody that was wrong. I'm Chrome, just sits at some time in the careers they'd be nobody else up here, and the attacks were just sort of unrelenting up until this point Elizabeth WAR and has mostly avoided direct confrontation in debates with other candidate, she had been calling herself the unity candidate, but she took a totally different approach. A far more aggressive

Roche and might glimmered was her favorite target I'd like to talk about who were running against. She landed some of the most stinging blows in the debate, drawing a connection between Bloomberg and public enemy number one for the Democrats, a billionaire who calls women, fat, Broad's for states to lesbians, and now I'm not talking about Donald Trump. I'm talking about male Bloomberg. Democrats are not perhaps the most contentious exchange of the night and the toughest one for Bloomberg was a lengthy back and forth between him and both war and and Joe Biden about a number of women who have signed non disclosure agreements. Bloomberg and his company there. He has got some number of women. Dozens who knows just

non disclosure agreements both for sexual harassment and for gender discrimination in the workplace. So, Mr Mayer, are you willing to release all of those women from those non disclosure agreements? So we can hear their side of the very few non disclosure agree. How many fish coming, and none of them accuse me of doing anything other than maybe they didn't like a joke. I told Let me just let me point out that the agreements between two parties that wanted to keep it quiet and that's up to them. They sign those agreements and will live with war and challenged him over and over to release those women from the Indies and let them speak openly about their experiences and when you say they saw them and they wanted them. If they wish now to speak out and tell their side of the story about what it is, they allow

That's now: ok with you you're releasing them on television tonight we move said he would not do so. Company and somebody else in this case the man or woman or could be but more than that lady sided women an agreement that they wanted to keep it quiet for everybody centrist. They sign the agreements and that's what we're gonna have primacy. Sorry. Now the question is: are there, but the latest is what these attacks reflect about: the state of the democratic race and the urgency that the candidates or feel in this moment Bernie Sanders leaders looking increasingly strong heading into the Nevada carcasses and, as we talked about many times, part of that has to do with the fact that the more moderate candidates or dividing the votes amongst themselves making it harder for any one of them to emerge as a clear alternative to Sanders now. Incomes, Michael Bloomer, with all his money and his power name recognition, but so far he has done more to slow down. Fellow moderates, then, before Bernie Sanders set under way

say that you do so these attacks and you didn't personally direct them. I believe you will think it is a certain point, it got ask yourself: why did this pattern arise? Why is it is spent we the case among your supply, don't think it as it is actually the case. That's just not true Luella people, no answer that meant it wasn't just Bloomberg on the defence of the other. Democrats also had to take on Sandridge themselves. Wonderful country. The best known socialists in the country happens to be a millionaire with three houses. What I miss Eyre you'll, this still work in Washington House Bless. The first problem in burly did health and they had to take on each others of the countries who are self.

You trying to say that I'm dumb argue mocking me here with you. I mean it was more open hostilities, more personal bitterness in this to our debate, then in perhaps all the other debates combined and that's because the stakes for the candidates are higher now and for many of them really for almost all of them.
