Watching Yang tonight, he seemed more confident and comfortable on the debate stage than in December, but failed to push beyond the same old notes of automation and universal basic income. That said, it might be due to the fact that he had less speaking time than any other candidate -- not much of a shot to speak beyond his pet policies. Steyer played an unusual role, as we all noticed. Rather than pitching himself as a legitimate candidate, he seemed more intent on trying to steer the agenda. I can't help wondering if either will be back on the stage in Las Vegas.
