* I watched the entire Wednesday debate. It was nice to see how substantive it was and to have moderators actually point out when they didn't answer the question. I wish they'd leave the name bars under their heads while they talk, because there are two many indistinguishable white men. (Please drop out DiBlasio, Delaney, and Ryan. You are boring, obnoxious, and have nothing to offer that we can't get better somewhere else). I wish I'd gotten to hear a bit more from Booker and the women just generally. Props to Julian Castro for remembering trans men need a right to choose too. There was generally a lot more of men yelling at and over each other than I wanted. (Amount I wanted? Zero. Amount I got? Way too much.)
