Commentary - It  looks like Matthew Broderick could take home his third Tony this year, but he will face stiff competition from previous nominees Raul Esparza, Danny Burstein, and others such as Harry Connick Jr. There are a lot of potential first time nominees among the major contenders, and among the bunch, it looks like Norm Lewis, Steve Kazee, Jeremy Jordan, Ron Raines, and Paul Nolan are the biggest contenders for nominations.
