Number 13 Baby

Got hair in a girl
That flows to her bones
And a comb in her pocket
If the winds get blown
Stripes on her eyes when she walks slow
But her face falls down
When she go, go, go
Black tear falling on my lazy queen
Got a tattooed tit say number 13

Another debate down with one more to go? There have been 12 of these GOP debates to date and to tell you the truth they've blurred in my memory to a few glowing embers of smoldering heat. Let me think back, think KOTCB, THINK!

Debate summaries

  1. August 6, 2015 – Cleveland, Ohio - Huge ratings! Trump won it and, oh yeh, Megyn Kelly had PMS and bitched at Trump.
  2. September 16, 2015 – Simi Valley, California - George Pataki is a clown.
  3. October 28, 2015 – Boulder, Colorado - CNBC + Boulder, CO don't make for a good GOP venue because Republicans hate Government (don't ya know).
  4. November 10, 2015 – Milwaukee, Wisconsin - FBN showed up CNBC and moderated a pretty good debate but I don't remember any of it.
  5. December 15, 2015 – Las Vegas, Nevada - Hands (and I don't mean Trump's).
  6. January 14, 2016 – North Charleston, South Carolina - Don't remember this at all.
  7. January 28, 2016 – Des Moines, Iowa - JEB! wins! but DJT is a no show, so...
  8. February 6, 2016 – Goffstown, New Hampshire - Rubio melts under pressure.
  9. February 13, 2016 – Greenville, South Carolina - United Technologies endorses Trump.
  10. February 25, 2016 – Houston, Texas - Telemundo reporter is baffled by Americans.
  11. March 3, 2016 – Detroit, Michigan - Trump has a big dick.
  12. March 10, 2016 – Miami, Florida - The quiet before the storm.
  13. March 21, 2016 – Salt Lake City, Utah - Not going to happen
6 Months of debate and the only thing that changed is Megyn's hair style

Well, that's what I remember anyway. My guess is there will not be a number 13 after this Tuesday because the writing is on the wall and spiritualists like Dr. Ben can read it (even if others can not). The lead position has not changed since July 2015 and eventually everyone will accept the reality of the situation. The most interesting aspect of the GOP debates was the transformation of Megyn Kelly once Trump got in her head after round 1 - If he's as successful at discombobulating other media personalities over the next 6 months he'll win the Presidency in a landslide.

The Real Story with Gretchen Carlson

She was "sexy", but "too much hard work." I'm a regular Fox & Friends viewer (mostly in protest of the other insipid morning programs like Today and Good Morning America) so over the years I've gotten to know Gretchen Carlson pretty well. Stuck between Steve and Brian she always seemed a prudish scold with an irritating, self-righteous demeanor that I simply put up with because I figured some people in the Fox audience actually liked her persona. It was obvious that Steve and Brian did not, but they were stuck with her like so many talking heads and had to make the best of it - which they did. Besides, she was no worse than any of the other women on morning show TV - I mean, you're only going to find a certain kind of person to do this kind of work and that kind of person is the Gretchen Carlson kind. Then, one day, she was gone and replaced by Elisabeth Hasselbeck and the F&F ratings began to climb, and climb and climb - in two months view

The 4th Estate "does not know"

Last night Jim Acosta sat down for an interview with Larry Sabato at a national symposium series presented by the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics titled “Democracy in Perilous Times.” The evening’s topic was “ The Fourth Estate: Enemy of the People? ” and the crowd was warmly receptive of Acosta’s message which, boiled down to its essence, is that Donald Trump is a liar and he’s making life dangerous for reporters. Sabato introduced Acosta to the audience as Enemy #1 which drew mirthful laughter from the auditorium and then presented a short video montage of President Trump and his deplorable rubes insulting the reporter on many occasions over the past two years. This was all a set up for his first question which was, “how do you do your Job?” Acosta said the he accomplishes his duties by maintaining focus, reporting the story and telling the truth but acknowledged that it is difficult when the White House erodes the peoples faith in the press by bullying reporters.

A Apolitical Blues

Well my telephone was ringing, and they told me it was chairman Mao. You got to tell him anything 'cause I just don't want to talk to him now. According to the brilliant troubadour Lowell George the Apolitical Blues are " the meanest blues of all" and who am I to disagree with this soul man now after all these years of living by his maxim.  I first heard the song bursting from the 1972 vinyl of Little Feat's Alt-Rock-Country masterpiece "Sailin' Shoes" in the second story bedroom of my friend John's older brother Edie who, being about 3 years our senior, was instructing us on the importance of good music. This was circa 1975 and a formative time for my musical taste and overall aesthetic which, for better or worse, infuses every aspect of my existence including the KOTCB blog so a debt is owed this unforgettable "older brother" now that  he has shuffled off this mortal coil  and left us with smoky memories.
