Perhaps the best part about Halloween is not the abundance of lollies - and the ensuing tummy ache that follows - or the spook-inducing parties that get.
dragging the tea party which was barack obama, is president they re taking the country away. they spent too much in the omnibus in 2009. that kind of conservatism they spent too much on the omnibus that was the first ten minutes. it s like guys, they don t care. they do not care about spending. they don t care that they are busting the budget. murdaugh cares about that, mike pence probably this really cares about, if that s not your party guys, and there is no theory of the case other than vivek for what county actually is. vivek ramaswamy has an idea for what the party actually doesn t want, and what conservatism looks like, everyone else is grasping at weird to different iterations that don t isn t his idea just a trump idea? yes, exactly. that s exactly what it is. the other thing that i saw, because they were mostly governors on the stage or former governors, they exist in executive positions for the most part, the kind of leadership that you need in a government is funct
government is functional, it s not very jazzy. doesnt have the pizzazz. what trump had in addition to the anger is that he is an entertainer. absolutely. ramaswamy attempted to do the showman piece of it, but he also was, i think, exposed as being paper thin. he really does not seem like as somebody who you would want to trust with the nuclear codes, but has the entertainment value. without trump there, it sucked the entertainment air out. and because trump injected that so deeply into the party, if you can t perform that, it s for the reason that desantis underwhelms, he has never been good at that. i think what people don t understand, he was defeated soundly by andrew gillum in those debates. he was outplayed, outmatched. even charlie crist defeated him in that debate. in florida, that s not what you need to win, you just need to be a republican. and all he needed to win the election was 1.3 million people to not vote, because they didn t bother. he never has had a political
saying, and yet there was a real market for that in the republican party. now, i don t think that ramaswamy is as talented as trump when it comes to charming that gop base. and that he s going to have as much success as trump had. but i do think that he s going to get a boost from last night, he came off for them, i think, as likable, even though i think he turned off a lot of people in the middle and certainly democrats. he held his own. he s young. you always get a little bit of a boost and if there is pizzazz there with a young candidate. and he was able to beat back those attacks from christie, from haley, pence, pretty well, especially for a first-timer. so that s bound to impress people, and, again, i think his online fund-raising is going to go through the roof. that s going to give him more opportunity to put ads out there, to get himself even more well known in iowa and new hampshire, and let s see what happens. yeah, john, is this, do you think, what happened last night in
troy: the great prime-time soap operas of the 1980s. dallas, dynasty. they re all about excess. this is about being over the top, stabbing each other in the back, going for the gusto, and having fun. i know what s wrong with you. the empty armed madonna. mourning the baby that she couldn t have and the baby that she almost got to adopt. that is it, isn t it? oh, you miserable bitch! yost: there was a bigness to the stories. and that they could afford to do on a network, if you re doing one episode a week. now you can t do that if you re doing five episodes a week for a daytime show. so just the production value gave it that pizzazz. reporter: if you can t have it, watch other people with it. or so say the three networks who are programming nearly 40% of their prime-time fare with series about the very rich. and the public is devouring it at such a rate that make believe money has become ratings gold.
