I don't want him to be president but I find him strangely endearing. lol Same and I listened to about 20 mins of his town hall and found myself agreeing with him a lot According to that one quiz (Washington Post I think?), I agree with him on a lot. Steyer and Liz were my top matches. Again, I don't want him to be president but I like him and find his ideas to be good and reasonable.

Also calling Toms Tie for hallloween I don't want him to be president but I find him strangely endearing. lol I don’t find him at all presidential, but I’d let him be my wonky rich uncle. I particularly like his environmental stances.

roloma,that's one big reason I am watching tonight--there are still a lot of questions I want answers to. (I blame the moderators for that. But their hands are somewhat tied--they need to get ratings. I'm not the kind of voter they are worried about convincing to tune in). You can submit a question!

Joe insistent that he wants to "earn" the vote. That's pretty smart considering a lot of criticism (including from myself) has been that he was media anointed

Bold Uncle Joe. Possibly a misstep, but bold.

Pete would win in a landslide if this were 1965 And he were in the closet. Because 1965ers weren’t electing an openly gay person

Don’t know if you want to point out that illegal third term, champ. People aren’t super cool about that.

Bloomberg let stop and frisk get out of control? It was out of control from the moment it was thought up.

Good point from Pete that it's weird that 7 white people are on stage talking about racial justice.

Pete made a point that everyone on the stage is white talking about race. It just didn't feel authentic to me

Amy always sounds so nervous and it makes me nervous. Her vocal tremor makes me anxious.
