We make way to welcome one more beautiful thing:

Chris Cillizza has a debate round-up. Since I was teaching instead of having my eyeballs melted by the idiocy, I’ll have to use his version of the truth:
Mike Huckabee: The former Arkansas governor needed a strong performance to keep the buzz building around his candidacy and he delivered. Huckabee was firing on all cylinders [...]

Feel free to weigh in.  I’ll probably pay attention.
