Ken Blackwell: “Curiouser and Curiouser”
From Ken Blackwell’s latest column on Townhall.com:
There were a few good moments watching the CNN/YouTube Democrat debate, but the real story is about moments that never happened. It appears that Senator Clinton got a pass on the questions that everyone should be asking her. Then to top it off, no candidate was asked about the most important issue for the next president.
The debate showcased an assortment of the most unproductive questions I’ve ever heard, such as telling us who their favorite teacher was as a child, and spending far too much time letting them prance down memory lane. Those questions belong on a human-interest talk show interview, not on a national debate. They were a colossal misuse of time, with no bearing on who is fit to lead America.
But there were some good questions that a frontrunner should answer. When the first one was asked, I wondered what Mrs. Clinton would say. But it wasn’t given to her. Curious, I thought. Then a second tough question was asked, and again she was not quizzed. Remembering a children’s book, I thought, curiouser. Then the third tough question came, and again was directed elsewhere. Curiouser and curiouser.
