Crowded
A 19th Democratic candidate for President has made his intentions known and the field has turned into a cattle call. There is no way that most will be able to rise above anonymity with voters, and the field will shrink as candidates run out of money and time. From a PR perspective, it is an exercise in democracy. From a marketing perspective, it is a disaster for both front-runners and followers alike. It would be better if there were but two or three candidates who were able to raise funds for serious campaigning and pay attention to voters' issues. Now it is a babble drowning each other and confusing the electorate. The crowded conditions cannot last and won't, but the longer they are an issue, the harder it will be for a strong candidate to emerge before the next election.
