With the benefit of a night’s sleep... a lot of the handwringing about the Iowa results feels overwrought. In 2016 it took a month for California to count up its primary ballots. A month!

The bigger issue is that we expected to have a media narrative last night, and we don’t.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Somebody has to tell them. When we don't have a narrative, Trump or Joe Scarborough will happily fill the void.
