Youre asking democratic voters to tune in for two nights and figure out across 20 people before. The field cut in half. So the stakes get higher. All these people are now playing to survive well into the playoffs here. What i would say is joe biden who you showed in our poll, he maintains thus far durable front runner status.

The storm . I think if he goes after no. I never did that. Elizabet
isis ideology does not die. the camps have been described as something of an isis academy. add to that the fact that the kurds who make up the bulk of the fighting force against isis in this area, those key american allies who have now been betrayed, they say, by the u.s., they suspended their operations against isis and now have turned their entire focus onto the front lines with turkey and with the syrian arab forces on the ground that turkey is backing. all of this has meant that there is a vacuum that has been created. priorities have been shifted and as we know, only too well, erin, isis is an entity that is extraordinarily capable of capitalizing on these type of security vacuums. add to that the fact that there are a number of isis sleeper cells that exist across both syria and iraq. all of these are good reason as
