We cats are hitting the road for a couple of days, but here are some quick thoughts on last night's doings.
The young Cillizza lad at The Washington Post must have been spun by the Baby Marco people ahead of the main Republican debate. His "winners and losers" piece this morning doesn't even mention Jeb! Bush. We can only guess that Roger Simon of POLITICO was right: "The candidate who really had the hard time was the man who is second in the polls, Jeb Bush. He wasn’t terrible, but he wasn’t very good. He looked like a person who had wandered into a race he wasn’t really interested in."
In fact, the young Cillizza lad's column had all the hallmarks of being pre-written and carelessly tweaked just before upload. In short, inadequate.
Did Chris Wallace really call Baby Marco "Governor" Rubio?
At the kids' table, did Rick Perry say "Ronald Raven"? Twitter seemed to think so.
Meanwhile, Senator Chuck Schumer (D-Netanyahu) issued a statement last night opposing the Iran nuclear deal. His timing was interesting: the two clown car debates, Jon Stewart's last show... did he think nobody would notice?
Finally, yes, there was that other debate in Vancouver. With Canadians still on vacation and not focused on the October election, we're not sure anyone watched. But for those who did, the NDP's Thomas Mulcair was deemed the clear winner. First Alberta, then the nation? We cats are getting ready to PURR.
