cheryl: todd piro, thank you very much.h democratic primary debate that took place wednesday night and the results are not great. the debate captured a total of 6.5 million viewers. which was 2 million less than the last debate in october on their competitor ecnn. are americans growing tired of the primary candidates or was it the largest focus on impeachment and going after president trump rather than focusing on pocketbook issues and the economy. let's ask gabl gabby orr. i was looking at the demographic, they had weakness in the younger demographic. i thought the democrats were hoping the younger voter would be energized by the warrens and sanders and come out and pay attention and they're not. what do you make of that? >> on the one hand, it is important to look at the ratings for the debate, to get a sense of how many primary voters are tuning in for the debates. on the other hand, i think it's important not to confl a ate viewership of a democratic primary debate with actual voter turnout at the primary polls in iowa
