it wasn't with Yang

Yang seemed like he was stuck in the dems friend zone. Everybody seemed to like him, just not in that way.

Oy, Connie N..

In much lesser news, I'm happy to report that spotting an ex across the hall and avoiding meeting him completely maneuver was successful. While I don't mind meeting him in general, today was not a day for this (very, very surprising) encounter.

Yang seemed like he was stuck in the dems friend zone. Everybody seemed to like him, just not in that way.

I feel like he kind of belongs in the friend zone, for now. My near constant refrain about both him and Steyer has been: run for something smaller first and prove yourself as an elected official.

I feel the same way about Pete, who I like to say is "cookie dough." He's been a mayor, but he's been a mayor of South Bend Indiana. There's stuff between jobs of that size and the presidency (felt it a little about Beto too, who also had the vibe of the really bright guy who just never manages to do the reading; whereas that is not problem with Pete, who learns a foreign language so he can do unassigned supplemental reading).

They're all better than Orange Julius, but it wasn't like the field wasn't big without these guys.

Sounds right to me.

I did not like Beto for Pres, but am so happy that he is now traveling Texas getting people registered and focusing on flipping the State house. More popular failed candidates need to do the same. State Houses are so vital for reproductive, LGBTQ, housing, education, medicaid expansion.

Agreed. I think he's great, just not ready for prime time.

I wish that's what Yang, Steyer, and Bloomberg would pour their time, money, and other resources into voter registration and fighting voter suppression or the like.

My thoughts exactly,Cindy. Bloomberg should give his billions to Stacy Abrams efforts.

Yes!

I am trying to make a master slide for this presentation and I have to logo and it is showing up, but I also want the title of the presentation to show up on each slide after the Title slide and I cannot figure it out.

and posting made it happen - I figured it out.

Go msbelle!

I got a big tedious thing dumped in my lap today and I can just about see the end of it but I so need to take a break. Maybe a quick walk...
