3. Debate write up from Post-Gazette

Here's the PG story: http://www.post-gazette.com/news/politics-nation/2018/02/19/District-18-debate-conor-Lamb-rick-Saccone-congress-pittsburgh-special-election-tim-murphy-seat/stories/201802190124

I saw a little of the last 15 minutes. I was amazed Lamb thinks $10/hr is a livable minimum wage. He cited some conversations with small businesses, but the fact is employers like Aldi's, McDonald's, Costco and others offer starting salaries at or above $10.

Saccone was doing some Gish Galloping when I first tuned in. I thought Lamb scored a good point saying that the reason the GOP wanted Saccone was he would do their bidding and vote for their agenda when Saccone tried to claim he'd buck the party.

Lamb certainly was more telegenic and earnest if that counts for anything, and sometimes it does with voters.
