Today's headlines point to the fact that the race for the Democratic nomination is rapidly turning into a two person race. Mark the time: I'm calling it - Bernie v Mayor Pete. The good news is that both potential nominees are great. With Trump's numbers slumping, the only things that can trip Democrats up this year are zealots who cannot brook their candidate coming in second. In related news, Buttigieg expanded on his remarks yesterday. I don't think any honest Bernie supporter can take offense to this simple statement of fact below.

My TV news blackout broke down temporarily last night. As usual, in ten minutes of viewing I was exposed to less news than punditry. In this case the pundits were "reporting" that the President's defenders were taking two tracks. 1) The President didn't really commit crimes because his underlings ignored his illegal orders. And, 2) The President didn't really commit crimes because he didn't have "criminal intent" to commit crimes. (Accidental crimes and crimes committed due to blundering ignorance don't count I guess.) Pretty weak stuff.

I need to ask you guys a favor. If you are served up a crazy right-wing ad please click on the little blue "X" in the upper right corner of…
