I'm excited for all of them, and I cannot waaaait for the primary debates. I'm seeing a lot of blowback on Kamala around me for her prosecutor past. I’m excited for the debates too! I honestly don’t have a favorite at this point, but there are specific things about several candidates that I like. Gillibrand on job training/ creation, and Booker on criminal justice reform, for example, though I don’t necessarily love either of them as a whole. I am hopeful that the debates will really help to shape the platform, with the ultimate candidate borrowing from some of the best parts of the others’ ideas.

Ahhh Rachel and Cory Booker knew each other in college "I knew him when he had hair." I should have posted it here instead of the other thread, but did you catch her comment about Grassley? I laughed out loud.

Yeah, we have a lot of candidates. We have a lot of Great candidates! How awesome is that?! What a tremendous luxury it is to choose from a group of highly qualified, fierce, brilliant individuals! R's are ridiculous if they think we're facing a problem. Remember in 2016 when everyone was saying the Dems had no bench? I never understood that thinking

They gave this man a town hall and he is still only in the exploratory stage. QUIT FOCUSING ON THE RICH WHITE MAN DABBLING NEWS OUTLETS!!! @cnn

I’m going to be honest. I watched last night and was sort of liking him at first. Nodded along during his immigration answer, even. But then it got bad. And then worse. And then just awful. So I’m glad I watched because I’m firmly in “hell no” to Schultz territory now.

I would not be mad at this scenario. I feel like Abrams and Kelly could flip seats in Georgia and Arizona if they run smart races. I'm just not sure that Beto's situation in Texas would be much different in 2020 than in 2018. Cornyn may be more likely to lose than Cruz, but it's Texas.

The more I listen to Mayor Pete the more I like him. I was already partial to him since I went to school in SB.
I want to shout this comment of his from the mountain tops. When asked if states have a right to ban abortions after 20 weeks, he said: this type of question should be resolved “by women in consultation with drs not by the intervention of male politicians putting politically-motivated restrictions on healthcare”

This is a huge endorsement and win for Senator Harris. Congresswoman Lee brings a progressive voice to Senator Harris’ team.

This is weird, but I'm cool with it since it'll mean Trump will have to spend time, energy, and money campaigning against him and not just the dems. Also when I texted the above sentiment to ladybrienne this morning she was like "...who?" So his campaign is off to a stellar start. lol.

This guy was Gary Johnson's running mate on the libertarian ticket in 2016. So the Johnson voters know him. I support any and all primary challengers taking on Trump.
