I really hope Nancy was listening. They're stuck on one version of what trump will say without having considered that trump has a comeback for EVERY situation.

i was working and listening and toward the end i'm like, wasn't Castro going to be there tonight?

i finally heard him with a couple answers, which i liked. I'm still #Warren2020, but I like Castro a lot.

ETA: just switched to him. of all the candidates, he is the one that is not first tier who I don't want to see get out just yet.

Biden and Harris dominated the time early on discussing each other's health insurance plans but save that part it seemed fairly evenly split up.

IMO Booker, Castro, Inslee (on climate), and Yang all did well.

He knows it too, that's why he's so upset. He'll wear it right through the campaign too.

Too bad for him. He made a poor political calculation and now he suffers the consequences.

When I first read it I thought "Fidel" and immediately thought, no he's dead. Then, well Raul must have said it, but then realized he wouldn't really care at this point, being 88 years old and out of politics now.
OK, so that leaves Joaquin and Julian, and Julian is running for president. I had to look that one up since I'm not following the primaries that closely yet.

Another thought I had was if Castro got elected, can you imagine the secret service headaches involved with dealing with an identical twin...?
