Solidarity begins at home. But solidarity also takes practice. During the last Democratic Presidential Debate some of you joined us for a live chat and watched in real-time as our commentators traded insights, quips, hot-and-cold takes, and factual corrections. We had a few technical glitches—which we’ve hopefully solved.
So this time we’re back with a bigger, better lineup. More bandwidth, so the watch should be more fun for all of us. And in addition our national affairs correspondents Jeet Heer, John Nichols, and Joan Walsh, and Nation contributing writer Elie Mystal (who’s also the executive editor of Above the Law), columnist Katha Pollitt joins the fray. Nation editor D.D. Guttenplan will moderate. And viewers will have a chance to register their reactions to each comment in real-time.
