Hillary’s handlers must have given her pounds of lithium before today’s debate, because she spewed out her best cackle since the old days when she was winning every poll by 50 points. And nothing sets off the Cacklometer like a question about the Clinton Administration directed at another candidate! Then that glibtard Barack “oh snapped” right back at her, which would usually hurt Hillary’s feelings. But, again: lithium.

Yes, I’ll be liveblogging the Des Moines Register Demrat debate today, which could use itself some Alan Keyes to stop the inevitable boring. The idiots running the debate, however, have barred Dennis Kucinich from participating, because he doesn’t own any office space in Iowa. A Demrat debate without Kucinich is nothing to me. But I’ll livebloggy anyways! See you at 2 p.m. EST.

So the GOP is having its last Iowa debate today, courtesy of the Des Moines Register, and the Demrats have the same thing tomorrow. We guess they’re both still on despite on those ice storms and shit out there. Anyway, I’ve stumbled upon a sizable cache of blow and, ergo, will be liveblogging the Republicans at 2 p.m. EST. Did you pack a flask with your sandwich-and-banana lunch this morning? Fuck your job! And mine, too. [Des Moines Register]
