Suppose they held a debate and nobody won ...

Last night the Republican candidates for President had a debate. Tim Stanley of The Telegraph thinks the winners are "Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich and happy camper Mitt Romney." Closer to home, Ed Morrissey of Hot Air found five different guys with five different answers. Yours truly didn't watch it last night, and that's two hours that were better spent doing just about anything, because the one thing about which none of the candidates were asked, was the one thing they should have been asked, which is why this writer has concluded that there were no winners last night. And that one issue is ...

Entitlement reform.

UPDATE: Joe Scarborough of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" hosts a morning-after analysis of the debate. The Huffington Post tells of how he "goes off" on Michele Bachmann. You have to wait till the end of the video clip to see this, but whether you love Bachmann or not, it's comedy gold. Atta boy, Joe.

What if they held a debate and no one cared?

Still awaiting a candidate that I can get behind as a faithful Catholic. I expect after tomorrow's announcement, I'll still be waiting.
