I’ve never met a man who was more liked and respected by more people in my life.
I really wish my kids could have met him

I must be doing something right

The more people on the left who feel the need to counter me, the more likely I’m being effective.
I am very proud to be compared to Jim Hoff who I’ve met and interviewed and is a fine Catholic Gentleman.
I look forward to the other side continuing to spend time attempting to counter me. I trust my readers to cut through the noise and see what is there.
One of the things religion gives you is the concept that reality exists, and no amount of smoke is going to change it.

We will be having another all nighter open mic for any candidates who show up.
Conservatively Speaking and Rosen & Rossario will combine for the evening on WCRN 830 AM.
I will be live blogging and tweeting and you can listen to the steam here.
I can guarantee it will be a whole lot more interesting than the Stewart Rally was today, and believe me that’s a really low hurdle to climb.
