Phillips continues to make the rounds. Earlier with Chuck Todd

6. I'm from Minnesota. And I'm really tired of rich people thinking the presidency is a starter job.

He's in his second term as representative, so I suppose it's not quite 'starter'. But I get no feeling that he's able to understand the job. Negotiation, compromise, never getting 100% of your way no matter how right it is, are not CEO experiences. It's not a skill in his toolbox yet. And it's crucial for a president.

There are others more qualified, if Dark Brandon can't or won't run. And I've seen no sign that that's the case.

My first choice - Biden. Second, Harris. Third, Raskin. I'll vote for Phillips only if he's the nominee, and that's only because I'd vote for Fast Eddie (my crazed and slightly feral cat) before I'd vote for a republican. And I vote. Every time. I research and vote for School Board. I show up even if School Board is the only thing on the ballot.

People not voting is how we got Michelle Bachman.
