I was in a real dilemma last night.

Should I watch the predictable "speech" by Donald Trump or should I watch the Kentucky Wildcats play the red-hot Vanderbilt Commodores?

Vandy jumped out to a 25-6 lead and could not miss. The Wildcats came back and won the game by seven points. They played like gritty, feral Cats. It was a great game!

The Democrats may seem to be in a similar hole this morning? But, if they fight and defend their positions, they can come back and win this game also. It's time to put on their big-boy pants and fight like Democrats.

"Where's the beef?" was a popular slogan during the 1980's and Walter Mondale used it very effectively against Gary Hart. We should ask the same thing of Donald Trump and the Republicans. Anybody could read a speech off a teleprompter. It was only words. We have seen nothing to back them up.
