Just heard on MSNBC-BERNIE is delivering the Democratic response?Edited: Only social media.

That is so strange that I wonder what on earth they're signaling.

On edit: THAT makes a lot more sense. Signals some unity and access to varied audiences.

No matter how I might feel about Bernie he's out of left field on this. Maybe it's misdirection while Pelosi and Schumer work backstage?

I won't be watching anyway, but I was kind of anxious to hear some of Nancy's wry wit and pointed response later.

Chuck will reach those who would be watching on regular television - while Bernie will be reaching the (probably) younger generation that uses social media/Youtube/etc.

I think this makes a lot of sense.
