2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumreminder: All 5 Democratic Candidates to speak at Iowa Hall Of Fame dinner Friday
The event will be carried by CSPAN live. The event begins at 8PM eastern, 7PM central, 6 mountain and 5 Pacific.
No idea what order they will speak in. Great chance to compare and contrast.
One thing that will be great is that the focus will be on issues and approaches, not on tearing down other Democrats. Although there may be a swipe or two at Republicans.
If you can't watch live, you can sign up to be notified when the video of the event is ready here:

ETA - I expect all candidates to put on their best performance. Wish them all well and hope that as Democrats we have lots of good stuff come out of here.

(131,370 posts)All 5 Democratic Candidates to speak, AND the focus will be on issues and approaches!
Many of us know which candidate is favored by this approach:
Martin O'Malley Faces the Wonk's Dilemma. Some 20 major candidates are running for president in 2016, but just one of them has put his name to a series of detailed policy proposals that activists in his base call "fantastic" and "great" and "moving the debate forward."

(1,464 posts)O'Malley should do well there. Bernie is going to get the huge response, but O'Malley will be the one who will be talking about the most progressive and detailed plans. Can't wait.
