3 winners and 2 losers from Sunday night's Democratic presidential debate

Sunday night's Democratic debate was, DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz insisted, timed to "maximize the opportunity for voters to see our candidates." Given that it was held on the Sunday before a federal holiday, that seems … dubious. But whoever wasn't deterred by the debate's inauspicious timing saw an event that was both substantive and sort of lackadaisical. Almost all the discussion focused on policy, but Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton began awkwardly attempting to slip in attacks on each other, though neither really seemed that comfortable doing it. The most animated of the bunch was Martin O'Malley, who seemed energized by his quest to successfully say something, anything, without being talked over.
