In their fifth one-on-one debate, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders got more personal than ever, according to analysis by Adam Tiouririne of Logos with Bloomberg Politics.

“Clinton and Sanders mentioned each other by name or title more often Thursday than ever before,” write Tiouririne and Andre Tartar of Bloomberg. And the attacks shifted from politics to personality in an outgrowth of the preceding week’s fracas over whether each candidate was “qualified” to be President.

Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio ganged up on Donald Trump at Thursday’s Republican debate, according to a Bloomberg analysis featuring Adam Tiouririne of Logos.

The two senators hit Trump “with their most coordinated strike yet at Thursday’s debate in Detroit, heeding 2012 nominee Mitt Romney’s call to ‘find some common ground’ in challenging the frontrunner,” write Tiouririne and Andre Tartar of Bloomberg.

It wasn’t the first time Cruz and Rubio attacked Trump, but it was the first time this year that they did so without attacking each other. The analysis also shows how John Kasich, the lowest-polling candidate still in the race, tried to break through with a focus on substance and his own record.

Marco Rubio joined Ted Cruz in a two-front war against Donald Trump in the February 25 GOP debate, according to a Bloomberg analysis by Adam Tiouririne of Logos.

“Cruz mentioned Trump four times more than even ‘America,’ combining with Rubio to name-check the front-runner 79 times,” writes Tiouririne, a Logos advisor and Bloomberg contributor.

Those nearly 80 mentions marked a major uptick compared to previous debates. The analysis also shows how Rubio and Cruz focused their attacks on competence and electability, respectively.

Thursday night’s Democratic debate in Wisconsin follows Sanders’ 22-point victory over Clinton in New Hampshire, where he won 82 percent of young voters and 55 percent of female voters. On Thursday, Clinton sought to make up ground with each of those groups.

According to analysis from Tiouririne, there was a distinct shift in Clinton’s language from “me” to “we.” Clinton promised six times to “tear down,” “break down,” “root out,” or “tackle” barriers holding Americans back. It was a significant shift from the last debate, where she focused less on the challenges facing Americans and more on her own experience in confronting them. Clinton referred to herself 249 times on Thursday, compared to 367 times in the last debate.

Meanwhile, Sanders confronted his own demographic hurdle: After Iowa and New Hampshire, each of which is more than 90 percent white, polls show headwinds for him among Hispanics in Nevada (who made up 15 percent of Democratic caucus turnout in 2008) and African-Americans in South Carolina (55 percent of Democratic voters in the 2008 primary).

There was no empty podium at Thursday night’s Republican presidential debate, yet there might as well have been considering the “elephant not in the room,” as Fox News moderator Megyn Kelly put it: billionaire Donald Trump.

By skipping the debate and hosting a rival event, Trump drastically changed the feel and substance of the final GOP face-off before the Iowa caucuses on Monday.

Without Trump, the stage was missing the debater who, according to data collected by Bloomberg Politics, has been the most camera-hogging, crowd-pleasing, self-referencing and plain-speaking. The average grade level for last night’s debate—a measure of the sophistication of candidates’ language—ticked up slightly to 7.4 from 7.2 across the previous six events. It was also a considerably less combative evening, with the number of inter-candidate attacks falling to 15 from 27 in the previous debate.
