Bet that's going to very interesting as they begin to choose Manafort's jury.

1. Manafort? Never heard of him, Your Honor.

2. And there could be many questions on both sides

to the potential jurors. Potential jurors are registered voters. Both sides have investigators if need be concerning the possible jurors.

3. They'd never select me in a million years.

Watched way too many hours of MSNBC, including the fact that I rarely miss Rachel Maddow. I’ve read several books on this situation (tRump’s campaign & the hacking) and have more in progress. I read and comment regularly on DU about this, too. I already have some suspicion about Mr. Manafort’s role in this crime. I guess you could say I am already inclined to lock this guy up for a long, long, time. Of course, there is innocent until proven guilty. Good thing I am not on that jury.

I wonder if how you voted will come into the equation??

4. Rachel was saying the judge ordered the potential jury members to arrive on time

I said that, if I were a potential jury member, I would be there at 3am. Yes, even for voir dire.

But they wouldn't pick me because I couldn't keep my mouth shut for long. I'd have to report details on DU.

"Why yes, I am much older than I look counselor, and that would be my sword at the metal detector".
