I did noticed that he coughed a time or two last night. He was still pretty effective, although it was almost in a Greek-chorus sort of way, interrupting Mayor Bloomberg and Sen. Sanders with pointed barbs. He's impressive. I would not be able to debate Mayor Buttigieg without some serious preparation on just about anything outside of Star Trek and Star Wars. And maybe the NFL, college basketball and baseball.

Feel better, Mayor.

That said, no, he has no path to the nom. I want him to run for governor or U.S. Senate in Indiana in the next appropriate cycle.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
