What do the candidates do AFTER the debate? Do they mix-and-mingle with audience members? Do...

Do they mix-and-mingle with the moderators and audience members?

Do they go to an "after-party" with their staff and volunteers?

Do they huddle with staff in a private meeting for a "post-game" analysis?

Do they head-off for a round of appearances and interviews on news programs or late-night chat shows?

Do they go directly to the airport to catch a flight to their next stop (and sleep in the air)?

Or do they just go back to their hotel and go to bed? (A couple of them looked exhausted and just completely worn out... so this option wouldn't surprise me. It's probably the one I'd choose if it had been me on stage.)

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Both CNN and MSNBC had 'after debate' interviews with candidates.

But I would also expect each candidate met with his/her staff to critique the performance.
