Once again, it’s the smartest post-debate analysis you’ll find anywhere on today’s BradCast, following last night’s fear- and war-mongering “national security” GOP debate in Las Vegas (in which neither climate change, nor guns, two of the actual greatest threats to national security, were even discussed.)
Yes, it’s now Trump and Cruz’ GOP world. All of the other candidates — and the entire Republican Party (and maybe even you and me) — just live in it.
I’m joined for today’s coverage by our returning champion, the great Heather Digby Parton of Salon and Digby’s Hullabaloo blog. And, for the first time, I’m also joined by actor, comedian and radio broadcaster Hal Sparks, formerly of E’s Talk Soup, Showtime’s Queer as Folk and currently of Disney XD’s Lab Rats and the Hal Sparks Radio Program Mega-Worldwide on WCPT in Chicago!
As our theme song says, we’re “tryin’ to make some sense of it all,” once again on today’s program. No easy feat. But we go well beyond the “horse race” in our analysis, as usual, and as the 2016 Republican Presidential candidates (that’s the year they’re hoping to win the nomination, not the number running…it just seems that way) worked hard on the stage last night at Sheldon Adelson’s Venetian Hotel and Casino to be the manliest-man and bombiest-bomber of them all!
Parton and Sparks offer incisive and lively commentary and fact-checking on what has seemingly now become a two-man race for the nomination. And I try to explain why Democrats ought to be very very careful what they wish for. Enjoy!
