5. I have never been a big fan of the sarcasm tag.

I feel like it takes away from the drama of the moment.

Anyway, I wasn't exactly being sarcastic. I was making a point about Tulsi's complaint. She said, essentially, that her absence left the debate incomplete. I felt that tonight showed the race finally coming down to the two candidates who have dominated in the polls all along and were finally the only remaining people on the debate stage.

Tulsi's presence would have been an intrusion and it would have diminished the quality of the debate IMO.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
