Yes, they hammered the viewers over the head with the Obama/Biden signs. In the yard, as well as three on the fridge. We get it!
Not a lot of subtlety.

Right. He would died when they were still in high school because didn't Kevin still have a broken leg when he died? And he broke it playing high school football.

I doubt that Tess’ middle name is Anna, since the second daughter is named Annie.

I'm still watching and I'm still liking. I know it's not as compelling as Season 1, but how could it be, really? I'm still liking the story line. It's hard to like Kevin, though. And Kate... what is her job right now? What does she do for a living?

The words Kevin said were, ‘the place you were when he left.’ (Doesn’t negate what you have said). So could be she was outside the house (watching it burn), or inside the house (he saved her and he died). Maybe?

I think it is pretty clear it is 2008 with the Obama/Biden yard signs, pins and magnets. It is also consistent with what Beth told William that 8 years before when she was pregnant with Tess. She also told William that Randall was vying for partner when he had his breakdown, so 28 years old is a much better fit than 24/25. That conversation was in 2016. I think that Jack has been dead for more than 8 years, more like 10-11. We only know that Miguel and Rebecca haven't been in contact for 8 years, probably because he moved around then to Houston.

Did anyone else notice how warm Rebecca and Beth seemed to be with each other at Beth and Randall’s house? In the present day episodes, it seems like Beth isn’t fond of Rebecca so I wonder what changed.

I don't think Sophie was the MC, I think each person just got to run the auction/introduction for the items they recruited for the event.
