'This is not right.' Elizabeth Warren came to the defense of Amy Klobuchar tonight after the Minnesota senator was pressed about forgetting the name of Mexico's president last week. DemDebate

Elizabeth Warren blitzed Michael Bloomberg right out of the gates on debate night in Las Vegas, ticking off a list of sexist remarks the former New York mayor is alleged to have made during his time in the private sector, then hammering him over his support of"racist policies" during his time as mayor.

"I‘d like to talk about who we’re running against," Warren said, grabbing control of the debate in its first minutes."A billionaire who calls women ‘fat broads’ and ‘horse-faced lesbians’ — and no, I’m not talking about Donald Trump, I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.

Warren also took some issue with Bloomberg's electability argument, saying,"Democrats take a huge risk if we just substitute one arrogant billionaire for another." After Warren finished, Amy Klobuchar tapped in, and said that while she initially supported Bloomberg being allowed to debate —"I thought he shouldn’t be hiding behind his TV ads," she joked — the contents of a memo from his campaign today had given her second thoughts.

The memo, written by two top Bloomberg aides, suggested that the campaigns of Klobuchar, Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg were all dead-ends and that, by staying in the contest, they were effectively handing the nomination to Bernie Sanders.“I’ve been told many times to wait my turn and to step aside and I’m not gonna do that now," she said."I’m not gonna do that because a campaign memo from Mayor Bloomberg said this morning that the only way we get a nominee is if we step aside for him.
