You're very welcome. It's often said that journalists now cover politics the way they cover sports, particularly horseracing, complete with continual handicapping of the candidates.

But I've heard much smarter commentary from sportscasters covering the NFL. There you have people the CBS rules guy Gene Steratore, who typically has chapter and verse of ever applicable rule at his fingertips for a disputed call. The coverage of the Trump trial was maddening if you were looking for insight.
