About Time

Okay crew, it’s a new year and I better get something down here even if it’s brief, of no importance and no one will see it. On to it! Oh, I did get a better weather widget on the right sidebar from accuweather.com.

I had studiously avoided watching the Republican primary debates because there was no use to do so. They can run a yellow dog and I still won’t vote for Obama. That, my friends, is a turn around on the old Democrat saying. So, why worry about wasting my time watching something that I don’t care about. Well, last night and this morning too I took the plunge. Watched both debates. They were a pleasant surprise and the candidates came off better than I suspected.

Three comments though. Rick Perry and John Huntsman are not ready for prime time. Both need to drop out and narrow the field. Santorum was not nearly as much of a winer as  I have seen him act before. And finally, the ABC bunch that moderated last night and NBC’s Gregory fellow that moderated this morning fulfilled their obligations as Democrat Party operatives. But what else would one expect from America’s modern day Pravda and Izvestia.

Okay, time to practice my fiddle.
