Didn't watch. But I'm not surprised she didn't mention Booker. I'd be surprised if she was able to answer questions intelligibly.
He spoke twice (including in 2016) in favor of School choice (which is a nice way of saying making way for for-profit schools to take government funding from public schools) at the American Federation for Children -- which is a conservative group that advocates privatizing schools and dismantling the public school system. He worked with Chris Christie in New Jersey on this very thing.
As a teacher, as a parent, and even as a citizen, I put public education as my top priority when it comes to voting. Supporting Public Education is part of my litmus test. I can forgive many things--Hillary being a wall street sell out for starters. But not supporting public education is the issue where I draw the line. I can't support someone who doesn't support public schools. Cory Booker hasn't, and still doesn't. I hope he doesn't get the nomination. I hope someone better than him does.
Also I find it weird that the story mentions that Booker rallied the troops in a way neither of the others did... but then mentions later that Liz Warren got the biggest ovation. There's a disconnect there. I wonder if it's because the story is from NJ.com.

The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
