But I also often need an editor.

However, "to/too/two" is one my pet peeves.

My best to you, my friend.

It's often too tricky to use each one in its proper place, and easy to get confused between two of them.

the point where he lost the debate.
The attempted intimidation of a woman turned people against him.

Lazio looked "mean" to women. Hillary, in 2000, was still perceived as a victim of her husband's transgressions. That might've have worked 16 years ago and for a Senate race. It won't work today, nor should it.

She looked like she was going to cry. People felt sorry for her and Lazio would never be able to shake his "mean to women" image.

Different times back then.

she did not come off as standing up to him but was 'saved by the bell.'

I am not criticizing her at all,, and it was so long ago.. but...just my impression of that short little clip.

I rather suspect now it would be quite different.


I also have thought for a while-- what could it possibly be like for her, or anyone, to actually have to walk on stage with trump and act like he is not a laughing stock.. I felt exactly the same way when Biden had to keep a straight face with what's her name from alaska... jeesh,, the poor guy.. I would just have cracked up..

I would have slapped his hand away when he stepped into my space, waving around that paper.

Obviously, I am not fit for public office!
