Rush Limbaugh used to mockingly refer to the NBC Sunday morning news show as “Meet the Depressed.” Perhaps it is an apropos name even if just for a week for the party in power. Yesterday, Halloween Day, host Chuck Todd delivered some scary news for Democrats.  An October 23-26 NBC News poll was discussed and …

Last week Abby was downright crabby. Coming off of only her second losing week in eight was one thing.  But, labor shortages in her department are another. This lack of staffing caused a deadline error that accidentally omitted her hunch bet.  She won, but it doesn’t count if it’s not published. Regardless, she had a …

Hook, line, and sinker.  It’s all there for your eyes to peruse the ruse in one sentence.  Wear some sunglasses though. “It seems to me almost every sensible progressive revenue option that the President wants, that the American people want, that I want, seems to be sabotaged,” he said.  He would be Bernie Sanders, of …

Back in the late 70s, Reggie Jackson earned the moniker Mr. October for his assassin-like clutch playoff hitting.  A few(very few)Vegas watchers are beginning to wonder if Abby is on her way in the 20s to earning the nickname Ms. October for her assassin-like assault on the NCAA betting lines. Another strong week brings the …

Yes DC, there is a Santa Claus. “With holidays coming up, you might be wondering if the gifts you plan to buy will arrive on time,” President Biden said from the White House yesterday. “Today we have some good news: We’re going to help speed up the delivery of goods all across America.” And ole …
