    Does this mean he is finally making some splash? ... Nay.

    Yang is announcing a new initiative tonight. Kind of ambitious to undertake something new when most people don't know who you are yet. Anyway, eyes on the prize.

    I think his performance was good enough to drive more traffic and keep him in future debates.

    Has over 100 policies on his website (by far the most of any candidate).

    Dig in, my dude.

    I will be very interested to see if/when he makes future debates where the field is considerably narrowed, how he responds to attacks on him/his ideas from the other candidates and whether he becomes more aggressive himself.

    Yang is in the curious position of big enough to survive until Spring, but not big enough to be a target.

    I think he will benefit a bit from the "crabs in a bucket" phenomenon that Trump leveraged, whereas everyone on stage blends together and they're all focusing on each other, meanwhile he is building this ascendant "above the fray" persona/campaign.

    By the time enough Democrats have been sent home that Yang ends up getting attacked, it may be too late to stop his momentum.

    Of course that is a dream type scenario. I will be absolutely elated if he makes it to Super Tuesday or the Final 5-6.

    Sorry if already posted. Love this interview, though he's still a bit evasive on paying for UBI.

    If somehow yang and tulsi gabbard were on a ticket together. I think they could make it. Maybe I’m out of my mind. But that would be the best in my opinion.

    Yang email blast just said they've raised over 600K since the debate ended. That's phenomenal.

    IMHO If he continues to stay on point and be more direct with his answers, policies and ideas he will gain more momentum.
