MSNBC Las Vegas, NV Democratic town hall @9pm ET **live commentary thread**

[Marokai Backbeat]

Haven't been watching, but has the coughing seriously been that bad? Both Hillary and Bernie are old folks, the campaign has to be hard on them both.

Sanders has the standard old man cough that comes and goes with normal speech, but Clinton's recent coughing patterns have gone on for sometimes minutes at a time.

[Lief 🗽]

Pretty cool that they were both asked such tough questions.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

People asking better and more incisive questions than most debate moderators.

[Lyin' Steve]

Skipped it.  How did this go?

[Xing]

Both candidates did reasonably well, though they had shaky beginnings. I think Clinton did a bit better this time.

[Pyro]

Both did well in some parts and not great in others. Clinton getting booed was funny.

Real issue is how ridiculously biased these networks are.
Dem question: "Why do you want to make American healthcare huge and inefficient?"
GOP question: "What kind of music do you like?"

[Beet]

Hillary needs to rest. Winning a state is not as important as maintaining one's health. She needs to have her heart checked. Extended coughing sessions can be a sign of heart disease.

For both of them, a VP pick will have elevated importance.

Well, we've discovered what Beet's new 'sky is falling' angle is going to be for the next few months.
