After duking it out on stage in Nevada and seeing Sen. Bernie Sanders win the state handily, seven Democratic presidential hopefuls head to South Carolina for the 10th Democratic primary debate. Former Vice President Joe Biden has bet big on South Carolina and needs a strong debate performance to make his case to voters ahead of the state's primary on Saturday. Biden and Sanders sit atop the latest polls for the state but billionaire Tom Steyer isn't far behind. After missing the cut in Nevada, Steyer qualified for the South Carolina debate at the last minute on the strength of a CBS News/YouGov poll.

Meanwhile the other billionaire in the democratic race, Michael Bloomberg, drew fire from each of the other five candidates during his debate debut in Las Vegas and struggled to parry their attacks. Will Bloomberg fare better in his second effort?
Sen. Elizabeth Warren will look to keep the momentum going from Las Vegas, where she went on the offensive and had her strongest debate performance to date. Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Amy Klobuchar will try to carve out support from moderate voters in the last debate to be held before the all-important vote on Super Tuesday.
The South Carolina debate will take place in Charleston on Tuesday, Feb. 25 from 8 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. ET (5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. PT) and will be broadcast live on CBS, BET, YouTube and Twitter. (Disclosure: CNET is a division of ViacomCBS.) Here's how to watch for free, even if you don't have cable.
