I've been listening on and off, but I think it's a good thing. It's clear the GOP would choose to stop this if possible, and I think the longer this goes on, the worse their defense is going to fare. Taylor and Kent seem reasonable and non-partisan.

I am extremely glad that the Democratic party retook the House or this would never have gotten to this point.

    It's clear the GOP would choose to stop this if possible,

At least until it gets to the Senate.

I honestly wonder if the GOP has considered the implications of automatically separating the contestants into "serious" and "unserious" categories and then giving the "serious" candidates an opportunity to play Mr. Smith Goes To Washington on every network for weeks at a time. If I had the choice between the MSNBC clown car or THE FUCKING SENATE for my opponents' grandstanding, I'ma go with the clown car every time.
