We do know debate placement can matter, perhaps a lot, as shown by Kamala Harris’s ability to issue a dramatic personal challenge to Joe Biden in Miami

Who will be where next time? Tune in and see! Photo-Illustration: Intelligencer. Photos: Getty Images It was inevitable, I suppose, that the conjunction of a television network with suspense involving the placement of candidates in a two-day debate event would produce a television show. And sure enough, CNN has gone there:

While NBC decided to hold a private “lottery” in mid-June to determine which night each candidate would appear during the first debate, CNN has decided to turn the candidate placement process into a primetime television special….CNN [will] hold a live “lottery” drawing to determine the lineup for each night which will air live on July 18 at 8 pm ET on CNN. According to CNN, more details will be released in the coming days.

So there’s even suspense about the suspense of debate placement. We don’t know, therefore, if CNN will emulate NBC by breaking the candidate field into two lottery tiers that will be juggled separately in an effort to avoid the clustering of high-polling candidates on a single night . Nor do we know if the Debate Lottery Special will have a commercial sponsor .

We do know that debate placement can matter, perhaps a lot, as shown by Kamala Harris’s ability to issue a dramatic personal challenge to Joe Biden in Miami concerning his history on school desegregation. Had she been on the stage an evening earlier, with other candidates, it would not have been the same.

She had no big ideas and nothing else to show for, so she had to attack a fellow candidate to get attention. She can debate and give long empty answers to hard questions. There are other candidates are MUCH more suited for the job.
