The Debate Tonight

After a break of nearly a month, we are going to see yet another GOP presidential debate tonight. Sadly, it will have John King of CNN as a moderator. I assume that means that we will start with questions about Satan, move on to marital infidelity, then cover individual tax returns with emphasis on low overall tax rates and total contributions to charity and then finally turn to the birth control issue (not the religious freedom issue, but actual birth control).

My hope is that the candidates to not fall into the gotcha traps that King will surely set for them. It would be nice to hear a thorough discussion of economic issues for once. I doubt that CNN will let that happen, however.
