The fourth Republican debate [1] finally gave viewers more answers than questions about the foreign and economic policies of the eight standing presidential candidates. But as the night went on, plenty of old habits remained.

Amid interruptions from other candidates and a very frequent "time's up" bell, Jeb Bush furiously argued Donald Trump on every issue, the billionaire managed to insult the only woman on the stage, and Carly Fiorina vowed to soar through the polls (the consensus this morning is that she came in second last night) and beat her Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

The Democrats didn't waste time during the live broadcast from Milwaukee. While hilarious commentary from Twitter users [2] flooded social media, pols including Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and Martin O'Malley took the opportunity to Twitter-bash their rivals and promote their own policies on immigration, veterans, and government spending.

How Clinton's Twitter rant began:

Two fewer candidates, but the same number of new ideas as the last #GOPdebate [3]: zero.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) November 11, 2015 [4]

Democrats reacted to Ben Carson's and Marco Rubio's statements against raising minimum wage:

Let us stand today with the tens of millions of workers who are working hard to put food on the table. Let's #RaiseTheWage [5]. #GOPDebate [6]
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) November 11, 2015 [7]

I raised the minimum wage in Maryland & as Pres. I'd fight to #RaiseTheWage [8]. No surprise, GOP candidates don't agree. #FightFor15 [9] #gopdebate [10]
— Martin O'Malley (@MartinOMalley) November 11, 2015 [11]

Sanders made a strong point about entitlement reforms:

Right now, Trump pays the same amount of money into Social Security as someone who makes $118,500 a year. #GOPDebate [12]
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) November 11, 2015 [13]

The immigration issue dominated the debate last night, and Clinton made an effort to retweet her passionate supporters:

Hillary will fight for comprehensive immigration reform and defend DACA & DAPA. #GOPdebate [14] https://t.co/2F0lPyghim [15] pic.twitter.com/7S20eG1ior [16]

When former HP CEO Fiorina talked about her economic proposals, the Democrats remained skeptical:

Please tell us more @CarlyFiorina [21] abt the jobs you grew when u were laying off 1000s at HP & dropping the stock by half. #foxbusinessdebate [22]

While Ted Cruz opposed John Kasich on the big bank bailout, Sanders remembered Teddy Roosevelt:

If Teddy Roosevelt were alive today, he would say: break up these too-big-to-fail banks. And he would be right. #GOPDebate [24]
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) November 11, 2015 [25]

Senator Rubio proposed a very populist plan on tax cuts (which many experts found arithmetically inadequate) and an expensive war on ISIS strategy that may add trillions of dollars in military spending:

Rubio: "Democrats are out of ideas about the future. Now let me tell you about my tax cuts and middle east military interventions"
— Christopher Hayes (@chrislhayes) November 11, 2015 [26]

It is amazing how almost every answer Rubio gives in this debate is verbatim from his stump speech.

While the hopefuls talked future wars with no mention of veterans on the night before Veterans Day, Sanders tweeted the most popular commentary of the debate night:

We already have the biggest military in the world, yet veterans sleep out on the streets. Will Republicans talk about this? #GOPDebate [28]
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) November 11, 2015 [29]

Meanwhile, O'Malley remembered the military LGBT community:

I will provide long-overdue justice for LGBT veterans whose only transgression was being true to who they are. https://t.co/20wA6G6LUR [30]
— Martin O'Malley (@MartinOMalley) November 10, 2015 [31]

Last week's front-runner Carson defended his biography early in the debate, but Twitter noticed his less-than-dynamic performance:

Ben Carson is the only guy who uses less than the allotted 30 seconds for his closing statement. #GOPDebate [32]
— David Corn (@DavidCornDC) November 11, 2015 [33]

Clinton took a beating from every candidate on the stage, but she still got in some pretty good burns:

I'll say it again: Republicans seem to believe that Hillary Clinton will be easy to beat.

It's hard to declare a "winner" in the #GOPDebate [38] when every candidate is trying to move our country backward. https://t.co/lCAYkhm8CZ [39]
