I’ve been having technical problems. I moved to a hard line. The wi-fi sucks at the convention.

But I have to admit that Mary Ruwart comes across quite well. The LP could do worse than her. At this stage in the game, it looks like it’s going to be between Barr and Ruwart – Root isn’t gaining much as people drop out. Does Root endorse Barr if Root gets eliminated?

I am watching C-SPAN on the Internet and the numbers weren’t clear enough on the small screen.

Thanks.
