Senator Chris Coons is in the theater...apparently skipping the budget vote?

Chairman Tom Perez giving a stemwinder of a speech in the theater.

Much better than last night.

Being the conniving person I am...

I figured out a w way to get someone else into the theater with my ticket from last night.

But I left it in my hotel room.

I'm pretty much in the same row I was in last night...

It is VERY hot in the theater...

Um.....

New Economist poll. Warren closing on Biden. Sanders dropping to Harris.

To everyone complaining about Debate moderation...

How would you structure a better program?

Last night, Marianne Williamson rented the adjacent Fillmore Theater for her watch party

My takeaway...

Top performers were Bullock in the moderate lane, Warren in the progressive lane, and Buttigieg in the “fresh face” lane. Bernie still come across as too angry. Nobody sitting around me in the theater thought he could win. Klobuchar doesn’t seem to be gaining traction in terms of moving to the top tier. Delaney, Ryan and Hickenlooper should pack it in.

I'll be down at the stage (light jacket) when this ends...
