Marisa DeFranco and I had a little conversation on the Meet The Democratic U.S. Senate Candidates WBUR web page.  It went something like this:

I am a Warren supporter, but sitting in the audience for the debate, I thought that Marisa DeFranco had more good answers to more questions than just about anybody else.

Elizabeth Warren was not that impressive.

For the format of this “debate”, the skill you need is to quickly come up with a short answer to a surprise question that finds the pithiest reflection of your deepest beliefs.

I was having a hard time thinking about how I would answer those questions.  DeFranco’s answers surprised me in a positive way.  She was able to come up with an answer that I would not have thought of, but one that hit the mark almost every time.

Hello Steve–I just wanted to say that I really appreciate your feedback on my answers at the “debate”.  I like the way you describe the format…that sentence perfectly encapsulates it.  Thank you, Marisa DeFranco

I just listened to the sound bite they have for you on this web page.  You say it exactly as I believe it.  Show me you have fighting chance in this campaign and I will switch my allegiance to you.

Here is the sound bite I meant:
