did all of the other evening chores waiting, and finally flopped down and turned on the tv it was on CNN, which is pretty funny.

Funny because I never watch tv news, didn't know what channel to find it on Tuesday night, and searched frantically, thinking the debate would start without me. Happily, I found it, and was there for it all, because they didn't actually get down to debating for a half hour or so.

So I look up, and there's a big red banner saying something about the Democratic debate at the bottom of the screen, and some guys in boxes talking. I didn't get the boxes. But one of the guys is saying, "I think we really might have missed something. We thought Hillary Clinton won this debate easily, but this morning we're finding out that Sanders got over $1 million in small donations since the debate and...." And of course, there was a guy arguing with him.

Before I switched the channel, I was thinking, "What is that all about? CNN suddenly wants some transparency, or? What's the agenda?"
