Sorry, soxared of Crete, Illinois - Mitch McConnell is not a staunch Catholic.

He's not even an un-staunch Catholic.
Mitch is a Southern Baptist.

A nun was actually turned away from the poll in Indiana

a few years ago for lack of ID newly required - I think it was the 2012 presidential election, but would have to check.

I don't care for this Jacob Soboroff.

I saw him, in an earlier interview, put words in the mouth of the interviewee.
He seems to frequently end up among Trump voters.

At one stop, where several had indicated a Trump preference, he went up to another man and said" Are you for Trump, too?"
In other words, he was leading the interviewee for his answer.
That's not way to conduct a survey.

I hope Soboroff is put out to pasture sooner rather than later.

Johnson was governor of a state that borders another nation - Mexico.

One would think he's at least remember the name of the President of Mexico while he was in office.
After hemming and hawing for a few minutes, he said his favorite was a past president of Mexico, but couldn't come up with a name.

Johnson does not have a good television presence.
Some of his facial expressions are ludicrous - for example, bulging eyes at one point.

Without Bill Weld by his side to save face, Johnson would be laughed off the podium.

That's the National Enquirer you refer to, I take it.

The Cincinnati Enquirer endorsed Hillary Clinton, contrary to their 100-years of endorsing only Republicans for President (and for most other offices as well.)

News for the younger gals - Usually no need to shave legs as a woman gets older

because leg hair stops growing.

However, as a woman "matures" hairs pop up in places one would rather not have them - like on the upper lip or the chinny-chin-chin.
Hopefully she gets a regular waxing where required.

I believe it's 9p.m. EST for the actual debate.

Obviously, much pre- and post- talk.

Check further, as I'm not 100% sure of anything anymore.
