Hillary Clinton won the debate tonight by leading Sanders on gun violence prevention, foreign policy, getting things done and more.
Hillary is on it tonight. Ready and prepared for every Sanders attack.

Well, that was a combative first 50 minutes. Both HRC and Sanders got in good punches, but Clinton has landed more overall blows

Remember this: A draw in this debate is a win for Hillary. She is ahead.

Hillary Clinton did just drive a hole in Sanders' "I’m drawing more people to the process argument"…. 9.6 million is more than 7.3 million.

On guns:
Boos for Sanders as he dodges question about wether he owes apology to Sandy Hook victim.
— Michael Barbaro (@mikiebarb) April 15, 2016
Sanders just said the Sandy Hook families have a "right to sue," which is the opposite of what he told the NYDN https://t.co/XLQ619hlou

Sanders chuckles while Clinton answers a question on VT guns being used for NY crimes. Clinton fires back, "It's not a laughing matter."

Daughter of Sandy Hook principal is not happy with Sanders saying he doesn't need to apologize to victims' families https://t.co/4BUF4v2Sx0

.@BernieSanders YOU DO OWE AN APOLOGY! Your round about answer was just not good enough!
— Erica L Smegielski (@EricaSmegs) April 15, 2016
.@BernieSanders, that answer is not good enough. Stop siding with the gun manufacturers and stand with the Sandy hook families. #ImWithHer

On Foreign Policy:
Sanders' pointing out that he *read* Clinton's AIPAC speech is a reminder that he didn't go (instead gave a foreign policy speech in Utah).
— Gabriel Debenedetti (@gdebenedetti) April 15, 2016
So @BernieSanders veers again into Trump territory, suggesting U.S. play "even-handed role" in Israeli-Palestinian conflict
— Mike Memoli (@mikememoli) April 15, 2016
Yet another Bernie/Trump similarity on NATO funding.
— Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) April 15, 2016
Sanders and Trump agree on more than NATO. They also share an anti-trade agreement populism.

On Getting Things Done:
Clinton: I don't take a back seat to your legislation that you can't get passed.
— Trip Gabriel (@tripgabriel) April 15, 2016
.@BernieSanders scoffs at incrementalism. @POTUS said last week that's how change happens https://t.co/KmzqZ0YLoW pic.twitter.com/ytx28SFCQu

Sanders said he led the flight on gay marriage. Not really. https://t.co/B0R64JdvlA

Clinton: “We won’t just make promises we can’t keep, we will deliver results that will improve the lives of the people in NY and in America”
— Jennifer Epstein (@jeneps) April 15, 2016
On Supporting Democrats:
Reminder on Sanders about running as a Democrat – he fought hard against running as a Dem when planning campaign https://t.co/Nz10rMLz0G
— Edward-Isaac Dovere (@IsaacDovere) April 15, 2016
Sanders: “We have raised millions of dollars for the DSCC…”
But I don’t think his current presidential campaign has

Sorry I just feel like writing off the Democratic voters of the deep south is pretty awful. — Rebecca Traister (@rtraister) April 15, 2016
