    I'd like to see the Mayor and some of those Senators (and Hunter's dad, for that matter) yield some of their collective time to Cory Booker and Julian Castro tonight.

    Tulsi not so much.
    "Hunter's dad"?  What a strange way to name the VP.  And why would they do such a thing?  
    Where will Cory Booker, Julian Castro (and Tulsi Gabbard) be tonight? Maybe watching the new Star Wars movie or something?

    Anyway, enjoy your white people (and Yang).
    Thanks!  I enjoy people who earn the votes based on the rules established at the beginning.  I don't understand why you hate white people.  That's a really bizarre statement.  
    More like a really bizarre inference. I don't hate anybody.

    And I didn't even have to be raised a Catholic to feel that way.

    Fairness.  Better than.  Coalition building.  Inclusiveness.  More ideas.   I would.

    I almost left him out completely, the VEEP.   I'm still creeped out the finger suck.
    I did leave out Tommy Steyer.  He's been so busy inventing (and perfecting) activism over the past 10 years, I don't know how he finds time to even run.

    Got it.  So if interviewing for a job, you'd give up some of your time with the hiring manager(s) in order to give the other candidates a better chance, even if you scored better on the tests, did better on the previous interviews etc.  I think of those things as polls, fundraising and the other requirements to be on the stage.

    I'm surprised Klobachar is still out there. She has no chance at the nomination but I kinda like her as a possible running-mate for Biden.

    I live in MN and I hadn't really heard much of her until she started running.  She's growing on me and I think underestimated.

    I only know her from this video. And that might be enough to garner a vote from me in this hypothetical if not for Ihan as her running mate.

    I've watched nearly every debate since college. It's a good excuse to make a drink. Tonight I made eggnog. It was delicious.

    Surprisingly few responses here on the Democratic Debate thread regarding  the actual Democratic Debate that happened today.

    I thought Buttigieg did well as did Andrew Yang.  I like those two. 
    Klobuchar sounded good but she had no cause to dis Buttigeig.  She might gain some votes with her name resonating "Clobber" a bit (yes, some voters are that stupid.)  
    Sanders and Biden waved their canes at each other (I can't remember who came up with that one- funny as hell!- please take credit for it if you read this). 
    Warren blew it for me by bitching about Pete's fund raising in a wine cave.  Why the hell not, Liz?  She has a net wroth WAY more than his.   Bad move, baby.
    Tom Steyer was just plain scary and needs to be in a Steven King movie.

    I'm going with Buttigieg, then Yang

    If she proves to be a Westerberg or Replacements fan, I might be swayed.  :smiley:
