1986 or 2014? A bridge to the 21st Century
With the Indiana primary results now official everyone is focused on the Elvis from Queens and his historic achievement which is interesting and worthy of comment at some point in the future. But the big news is the win for Constitutional Monarchy on the jackass ticket and the questions it raises which absolutely no one seems interested in asking. It's amazing but Hitlery has won 25 States or territories while Bernie is right behind her having won 19!!! They're practically tied now and with a slew of States favorable to Sanders on the horizon it could be a dead heat by June 5th and the Cali primary. The question every Democrat needs to ask themselves is:

Is it about men, women, choices, friendship and love?
or
Is it about compromise, love and being a good wingman?

There is going to be a reckoning for my Blue friends who are about to see what a contested convention actually looks like - everyone's been calling for one in Cleveland but it looks like we're going to get one in The City of Brotherly Love.


If not for the Democrat "Super Delegates" there would be a 300 delegate margin between the two candidates and the upcoming contests do not look promising for the current front runner. If they enter the California primary in a dead heat considering States and delegates won the Golden State might deliver a BIG surprise.

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. A born rebel with the heart o
