I’ve never considered myself psychic in any way, but last night, when my patient and loving wife paused the DVR during dinner so I could watch the Democratic debate, I thanked her and turned it off. I’d had a sense that no good could possibly come of this debate, and from the reports, it appears I was right. In fact, not only was no new ground covered, but the debate appears to have been in fact, nothing but has-been gotchas.
