That weird sobbing sound you hear is from @ChuckTodd

[Major Hogwash]

42. Chuck wasn't this way 6 years ago.

That was when I first saw him discuss politics on tv.
He was young.
He was fresh.
He wasn't an asshole.

In fact, he was quite shy.
Back then, in those days, he only "offered" his opinion on some issue of politics, or of a politician that he offered to add to the discussion they were having.

Unlike today, when he says something and then expects everyone to grasp their face like the Home Alone kid and exclaim, "OHMUHGAWD!! OhMuhGawd, that is the most brilliant, succinct, yet in-depth, critical analysis of the current state of politics I have ever witnessed in my entire freakin' life!
Where has this intellectual political genius, who also happens to be a handsome, hunka-hunka devil, been hiding for all of this time?"

No, that's not even how it was when he first came on the scene.
Years ago, he was bashful, not anything near how he is now, full of bravado and bovine excrement.
I don't know why all of a sudden he thinks he is so damned special, but I have a feeling that he is going to crater sometime very soon in the future.

And just for you, sheshe --- because you are such a sweety --- I thought I would tell you that Alison Grimes is now tied with McConnell in their Senate race in Kentucky.

New Bluegrass poll has McConnell, Grimes even

U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes are in a virtual dead heat just 15 days before voters will go to the polls, according to the latest Bluegrass Poll.

The poll found that McConnell leads by the narrowest of margins, pulling ahead 44-43 among likely voters. That result is well within the poll's margin of error. Libertarian David Patterson gets just 5 percent.

The poll shows that McConnell is in the fight of his political life despite being the most powerful Republican in the Senate and likely to take over as the Senate majority leader if he wins re-election and the GOP can win control of the Senate.

The poll was conducted by SurveyUSA for The Courier-Journal, WHAS-TV, The Lexington Herald-Leader and WKYT-TV, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.9 percentage points. The pollster interviewed 655 likely voters on landlines and using a written questionnaire sent to their mobile devices.
