Tonight, Tonight…

Harry Enten tells us that there are 174 people running for the Democratic nomination for president. Some of those 174 people don't even have 174 supporters. In any case, Mr. Enten tells us a little about the other three who'll be on stage at the debate tonight: Lincoln Chafee, Martin O'Malley and Jim Webb.

O'Malley, he tells us, is the only one who might gain standing tonight and "the only life-long Democrat in the Democratic field." Really? Out of 174 contenders? I think he means of the five on stage. It is amusing to think though that O'Malley apparently registered in the party the moment he was born. That's what you'd have to do to be a "life-long Democrat."

I don't expect anything of interest to happen tonight other than that Sanders will give Hillary a hard time over certain past votes and CNN's reporters will harass her about her e-mails. If anyone's a big winner tonight, it could well be Joe Biden.
