Super Tuesday, Super Bowl, anything for our great pleasure, is stated "Super." The final Democratic debate on Thursday night before Super Tuesday, had that kind of ambiance to it. I thought I might have the wrong channel; I expected Oprah to appear to host the show. It truly was a "Super" setting for the Democrats in their final debate before Tuesday, when many states will have their primaries including the state of California.

I'll bet that the candidates had a review as to their past performances cutting each other to the bone to get votes. Hey, who am I to judge. We all have the right to change, except Romney. ...more
