It occurs to me tonight: Richardson is now the Gilmore of the Democratic field.  He can’t stop talking about his resume.  I understand that this is his supposed strong suit, but he has to be able to finish a sentence without mentioning one of his past jobs.  He just said something about New Mexico and starting an “Apollo program” on energy consumption…please, make it stop. 

Obama continues to be halting and ill at ease.  Clinton must be having a great time–she has been laughing like a clown.  Edwards is taking as much time as he wants and he is dominating the debate.  For Democratic voters, he seems more and more like the obvious choice (not that I agree with this choice at all).  Gravel was the only one to support English as the official language of the U.S.  Kucinich (naturally) put in his two cents for full-on socialised medicine.  Dodd and Biden were also present, but seem to keep getting lost in the fray of Senators.
