That looks like a food fight waiting to happen. I wonder who would even be stupid enough/brave enough to show up? And who will be stupid enough/brave enough to not show up ? Maybe they can put it on television and the republicans can keep Florida.

2Will be interesting to see which candidates if any attend. The Dem candidates will have a debate in Oct and Nov, we just don't know the dates yet. They might be getting a lot of e-mails from Dem candidates saying in effect - good luck on the forum, can't attend due to a scheduling conflict.

3There are so many dems fighting to be more "progressive" than their compadres that they'll get more than a few candidates to attend.

When you think this is a problem for Dems, remember that multiple states banned abortion recently. The wedge issues work both ways.

5Maybe someone will have the nerve to show up and say it’s not really that high on their agenda and we have more important things to be concerned about.
Nah.
Nah.

6Nuance. In a blue state, the AWB talk keeps Dems voting. In a red state, we know AWB ain't gonna happen without consequences. Dems would lose support too fast and the government would go back to GOP control.
Red state liberals have abortion rights, Medicaid expansion, civil rights, and voting rights to worry about. Anyone who worries about gun grabbers as the #1 issue is already voting GOP here. Attitudes are set here and there is almost no real undecided voter. After 2017, polls showed almost no undecided voters and it is still that way. The election is about turnout and voter suppression again. Just watch in 2020.
