It was a ‘Rocky Mountain Mess’ to many, but we try to make sense of CNBC’s GOP Presidential Debate in Boulder, CO last night on today’s BradCast<\/i><\/a> anyway!<\/p>\n

My guests today are Heather Digby Parton<\/b> — Salon contributor<\/a>, Hillman Foundation opinion journalism award winner, and proprietor of Digby’s Hullabaloo<\/a> blog and the Colorado Statesman’s<\/i><\/a> John Tomasic<\/b>.<\/p>\n

“Digby” has joined us for all of our post-debate coverage so far this year and offers smart insight yet again today. Tomasic shares his on-the-ground perspective after covering the goings on inside and outside of the Coors Event Center before, during and after yesterday’s debate(s).<\/p>\n

Was anything learned from either the ‘Kiddie Table’ or ‘Main’ debates? Is Jeb finally done for? Did Kasich’s gambit work? Did Trump accidentally make sense again? Does Jindal have a magic wand he doesn’t know about? Is Social Security really a scam?<\/p>\n

Were the CNBC moderators as awful as the GOP would like us all to believe? Why was a Republican debate held in the liberal “Mecca” of Boulder in the first place? And why were the students at CU-Boulder kept from attending it?<\/p>\n

We search for reasonable answers to all of those questions and more on today’s BradCast<\/i>! Wish us luck!…<\/p>\n
