Democratic Presidential Debate Candidate Cheat Sheet

If you're like me trying to figure out what every candidate backs and who they are is a little like trying to understanding politics at all, and I even majored in Political Science for one semester.  Any how.  If  you are having some trouble seeing what the candidates are about and want to read a pretty non-biased view on them my friends over at The Skimm have laid it all out. They interviewed all the candidates that agreed but offered to everyone.  If you have been wondering how Bernie Sanders takes his coffee these are the interviews you will want to read.  I think it does a good job humanizing the candidates.

Former Sen. Jim Webb (VA) - considered a long-shot.  Vietnam vet and was secretary of the Navy under Reagan.  He's pro-prison and anti-Iran deal.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) - probably if you are a fan you saw him speak in Boulder over the weekend.  The Bern is drawing some huge young crowds.  He says he won't run a negative campaign but at the end of the day can anyone really get thru an election without one (I really hope so)?

Frm. Sec. of State Hillary Clinton - you know her deal.  I thought she slayed SNL.  So.  There's the extent of my political bias.

Frm. Gov. Martin O'Malley (MD) - he's in the band.  I actually think his hotness went up like 7.68 points because of it.  But wait....this isn't what this is about.  I don't know how he feels about much.  But here's some O'Malley music to use as your debate soundtrack.

Frm. Gov. Lincoln Chafee (RI) - he's being called "Long-Shot Candidate #2" but at this point it's anyone's game.  He's been a republican, independent and democrat so he's definitely seen things from all sides of the aisle.

Vice President Joe Biden - he's still not sure if he's running or not but reports say CNN has an open podium for him.  And some intern will get their 15 minutes when they have to run on stage and remove it.

So.  Not much of a help but it's the best I could do.
