Debates

Watching the first two Democratic debates, or at least parts of them was interesting but these are sort of the qualifying debates.

Most of the candidates have no realistic chance of becoming the nominee so they have to make enough of an impact in these showcases to secure enough funding to get to the early primaries.

Of course a few of the candidates don't seem to be at all serious, even if they think they are.

Still, ultimately it is the public that will decide, at least the democratic public and who they eventually coalesce around is difficult to predict at this point.

I think a few years ago on the Republican side, Jeb Bush was the clear favorite.

You see how that worked out.

You have to inspire some passion in your base to do well in the primaries.

Sometimes favorites try too hard to not make mistakes.
