No matter what your political views, this was bad news and something you never want to hear about. Thankfully, the two Hillary staffers held by an apparently […]

In order of best performance to worst…
Mike Huckabee - Got super reaction for the debate crowd and various Republican voter focus groups. Nothing sensational, but he is the most consistent performer of the bunch.

Last night brought a wild start in St. Pete that quickly bogged down amidst questionable and pathetic YT user queries and overzealous attention on trifling GOP-centric issues (yes, it’s a GOP debate.

Unlike the Democratic race (and thus the debates as well), which is fueled only by the Hillary/Obama feud and how those two candidates react to every question, the Republican fight is much more wide open and entertaining. Multiple skirmishes going on at once means loads of dissension and brutal “honesty.” Story lines and potential bombshells […]
