The third Democratic primary debate is behind us now--all three hours of it. On Thursday night, the top ten polling Democratic candidates met in Houston, Texas. And for the first time, frontrunners Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, and Bernie Sanders shared a single stage. So, did anything from the latest debate reshape the battle for the nomination? That’s the question at the center of today's show.

We also look at how the caucus process works in Nevada and what we might expect in the first primary state, New Hampshire. Finally, a conversation about the Democrats and impeachment, in light of the House Judiciary Committee vote this week to move forward with an impeachment inquiry. 

Guests:

Claire Malone, senior politics writer for FiveThirtyEight

Joel Payne, former aide to the Hillary Clinton Campaign 

Issac Dovere, staff writer at The Atlantic

Shelby Wiltz, caucus director for the Nevada State Democratic Party

Rebecca Katz, founding partner of New Deal Strategies

Karen Hicks, founder and CEO of Civix Strategy Group

Kyle Cheney, Congress reporter for Politico
