Pirro, Cuomo Make Us Regret Skipping Their Debate

We didn't watch Sunday morning's debate between Jeanine Pirro and Andrew Cuomo — did anyone? — but now we're pretty sad we didn't. "When two candidates stand at podiums and list the names of persons both alive and dead their opponent should apologize to," as Early and Often recounts, it seems like the rare political debate that was perhaps actually worth watching. "The attacks were heavy-handed, light on the facts, personal, visceral, catty, mousey," E&O continued. And now we're disappointed we decided to sleep in. Early and Often, thankfully, did not.
