Tom, do you really have any strong data that says the country would elect a black woman at this point in our highly-charged racist, misogynistic society?

And please do watch the Lawrence O’Donnell video James linked. Changing candidates at this point is a fantasy and much more risky than Go With Joe.

I’m apparently in a minority when I argue that jet lag, a cold virus, cold medication (especially Benadryl, which definitely has cognitive side effects, especially for older people—trust me on that) PLUS the firehouse of lies that would be impossible to address in the debate’s time limits and format…..How could anyone, even a younger candidate, NOT be flummoxed?!,
