My fantasy team roster is set. Preparing popcorn now.

Maybe we'll get a reprise of the Warren/Biden bankruptcy bill faceoff.

Wake me when the dust settles.

This is much like the NBA - little point to watch anything until March/April.

The DNC learned from the RNC in 2016. They need to keep the field crowded to distract from Bernie, at least until he makes some 'unforgivable' flub, where they subsequently demand he withdraw from the race.

I think they should all take turns denouncing Trump. that would certainly add to event. Health care nuances are rather dry.



Best feature: No Marianne Williamson

Too much else going on in my backyard, and Medicaid for All is far too disruptive. Public option is the next step after the ACA.

Did I miss anything else substantive?

Julian really stepped in it.
