NBC’s appeal to keep Dennis Kucinich out of tonight’s MSNBC debate in Vegas was set for a 4:30 ET hearing in Nevada’s Supreme Court (the majors!). Word should come out shortly whether our favorite hobbit makes the grade or not. Also, Liz “Polaroid” Glover did not go with Ken to Vegas. This is just a leftover from New Hampshire, and THEN THAT’S IT. [The Caucus]

According to that know-it-all Mark Halperin, tonight’s Demrat debate in Las Vegas will allow each candidate to ask other candidates two questions. And the focus will be on “black and brown” issues, since it’s Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday (which Hillary spent by making out with Lyndon Johnson’s grave). Given these format twists, it looks like Hillary and Barack won’t have to worry about that nasty racial tension anymore. [The Page]
