I attended a lecture by Chuck Todd (MSNBC/NBC) at Furman University this evening.

Can't say that I was inspired. Nice guy, I'm sure. And I know some DUers hate Chuckles. It was a lame evening. Lame lecture and lame panel discussion.

However, it was SRO (and I was the lone standee (couldn't find my wife, who had saved me an aisle seat!)). So my back is killing me. In that respect, it was not worth it for me.

But, it was good to see a large crowd - generally well-educated and liberal - in South Carolina. Most seemed older than me, and I am pushing 70.

I usually watch Chuck on MSNBC at 5pm (east coast time). At least I am not screaming at him on the TeeVee like I was during the 2016 campaign.

Know what I mean, Vern?

After the drive down the mountain from Caesar's Head, and doing a little grocery shopping and refueling, I was shocked when I got to Furman 90 minutes early. Lots of folks!

But Chuck might as well have stayed in the MSNBC studio today. Would have learned much more from him that way. Seriously.
