This guy cemented Romney’s and McCains’s election funeral. He was absolutely wonderful.
He is also much hipper and smarter than Leno, who really doesn’t spend much time learning about anything except cars.
Did you ever watch Letterman and Matt Damon together?, Hysterical.. It’s like they are joined at the hip comedically.... Very kind of subtle and full of sarcasm and innuendo..

By the way if anyone watched Letterman last night, he was very measured with these subjects and
seemed to do a 50/50 split on attacking both parties. Which makes sense...

Leno again spewed nothing but Repub talking points last night..
