1. Wow. Into the lion's den. Much like his appearance at Liberty U.

Not that I have any doubt about his ability to do well under pressure — on the contrary, that's where he shines.

But I'm wondering if this violates the DNC rule about sanctioned debates, since it's a town hall format. Does anyone know?

2. Is Hillary attending? If not, it isn't a debate, so he should be fine. nt

3. Thanks. The reason I ask is the rule said that if any candidate (singular)

participates in a non-sanctioned debate, they'd be excluded from future ones. But as we both said, it's not a debate.

It is, however, Bernie's best format.

4. Yep. His numbers can only go up. Fox reaches a lot of older people. Drip drip. nt

5. Whoa.

Bernie on FOX town hall? That's gotta be very interesting!
I guess it couldn't hurt. Bernie's fearless, and he could take any questions.
They must have invited Hillary too. If that's the case and she said no, Bret Baier might take a shot at that.

6. If you remember she declined that NAACP town hall last month

It was only Bernie, Killer Mike, Dr. West and the audience.
