Wolf Blitzer is Boring with the stupid questions to candidates

Yesterday i saw him talk to Lincoln Chafee and today to rand Paul.

He spends most of the time talking about polls and fundraising. Discussion of actual issues is a distraction to him.

We know some candidates are not going to make it to the end. There is no need to spend so much time on that aspect of the race. What difference does it make if Chafee drops out now or later ?

Does this mean we should not discuss Afghanistan ? What to do about the middle east etc.?

And just like before candidates got into the race he spend a lot of time asking if they are going to run instead of actual issues.

I did hear him say the other day that Gay folk dont need protection in the workplace, because there are plenty of places that will hire you if you are Gay, so why bother with the places that wont.

He was practically pushing him out of the campaign and said staying in looks "silly." Chafee said he will stay in as long as he can to continue his anti-war message.

Wolf was a total ass and Chafee was a total gentleman.
