    Hate to see TV reporter bait Calif police chief w/ "what does your GUT tell you" about shooters' motive. Why not wait for evidence?

    Biggest competition on the stage is which candidate will add more trillions to the debt. I think Rubio is winning!

    Stunning that a Mizzou journalism instructor tries to chase a news photog from public space & newsworthy event. Kudos to Tim Tai.

    In fairness to debate moderators, a10-person TV "debate" is absurd. No way it can be substantive
