Brian Fallon: Waste of time listening to zero percenters, not Biden, challenging Warren/Sanders.

Fallon's tweet:





Thankfully this is the last round of debates w/ 20 people. Its a waste of time listening to these zero percenters challenge Bernie and Warren. Let's have the top four on one stage. If we are going to debate whether public option is enough, let's hear it from Biden not Delaney




What Yglesias tweeted, and wrote for Vox:

By the time we get to one debate stage, all at the grown-ups table, some Americans may get burned out.

Booker just barely qualified for debate number three. He has some of the best polling on the low end.

about Bernie or Liz?

This time around I heard a lot of good stuff from Amy, Bullock, and even Williamson. Even if some of them have no chance, they are still voices that should be heard.
