1) The reason we have so many candidates is because we're an ridiculous country that starts its wasteful, expensive campaign season *two years* before the election -- always a bad idea, but alluring to pundits who prefer horserace coverage to addressing a constitutional crisis
2) The Dem field will narrow over time; it's not a crisis or an indicator. At the moment, a broad field is good, because we are battling rising autocracy. Diverse roster, varied debate on policies, and the inability of the media/GOP to obsessively smear just one person is a plus
3) Imagine if all the misogyny aimed at Warren, Harris, Klobuchar, Gillibrand etc were aimed just at one woman. Or if Trump/GOP had one name to browbeat endlessly for 20 months. The financial waste of the election is a real problem -- but big slate is good for Dems strategically
