1. So far, Grayson is simply clearly and continually correct.

4. Grayson channels FDR

He is a traitor to his class.

He welcomes the hate of his enemies.

He is a fighter.

Has the USA been lucky again in finding a leader who can stand up to the economic royalists?

5. Hard to see sometimes whether Schultz is playing devil's advocate.

The tone for me was set early with the reference to "monkey wrench" and "gum it up."

Maybe he was just being a good interviewer and I am all wrong. I am probably wrong but am going to have to listen to him more closely from now on.

10. I'm pretty much over Ed. He has spoken boldly and flipped on this bill,

His voice and phrasing, to my ear, also sound too close to Rush's - so my tolerance for anything stupid out if his mouth is unfairly low for him. But, that said, he seems to have been co-opted by the beltway on this one.

7. I love how he's always working on new ideas and keeps plugging away till someone hears the people...

A lot of his bills may not amount to anything but it's good to support them for the statement they make. Who knows if he's in the running 2016 he can enact them all into law.
