Lincoln Chafee, no contest. Webb did not play very well with the modern-day Democratic Party, but Chafee looked like such a joke.

The clear answer is Chafee. His admission of voting for something that he didn't really understand was terrible.

Sanders, because Clinton was practically flawless (and I'm saying this as a probable Sanders voter).

Chafee is and has always been completely irrelevant. He'll probably get a couple more people to buy his book, so how can that be chalked up as a loss?

Chris Cuomo says Webb and Chafee won't last much longer.

Yes, Chafee up or down by whatever, is a waste of time. Sanders did not look versus Hillary. He's the big loser. Team Hillary must be in orgasm.

As someone who volunteers for the Clinton campaign, I can confirm that this is indeed the case, whether substantiated or not.

Everyone did pretty much exactly as I expected them to, with the exception of Chafee, who was cringeworthy.

Unquestionably Chafee was the worst but Sanders probably lost the most out of it.

Biden. Not showing up is not going to help him.

Of those on stage, No question Chafee.

I legitimately think Chafee did well except for that one question. He gave a strong unequivocal response on Snowden. He hammered the Iraq War. He gave a good answer to "why have you changed parties so much?"

Agreed here.  Webb came off as rather conservative for a Democrat in this day and age, but he came off as a guy who was up to the top job.  Chafee got smacked down, and that's kind of the story of his career.  If he was such an effective Governor, why did the Democratic Party in Rhode Island fail to support him for a 2nd term to the point where he opted not to run for re-election?  Clinton blowing him off on the e-mail question was the ultimate put down; I've never seen a guy so put down with one word as Chafee was tonight.

Chaffee had the worst performance of any candidate in a debate I've ever seen, bar Rick Perry.

You may not be wrong, but no one will remember all that after the next 24 hours of "analysis." It's all memorable soundbites from here on out, and his was particularly disastrous.

No, I think 'It's my first day' is far worse than having a mental blank.

I'm inclined to say Chafee, but how can somebody at rock bottom lose anything?

He may go up in the polls just because of name recognition

I tend to agree with you, and I voted Webb in this poll. Chafee did poorly, I concede, but Webb has even less of a chance with the Democratic base, and this debate didn't do anything to change the perception that Webb is basically a conservative Democrat.

Agreed. It's just a shame all his other points will be ignored.
