I took a break from the Lightning Round for a few days mostly because I just didn't get around to it. However, in my defense, nothing that has happened in the last few days or, for that matter, the last six weeks has had any impact on the campaign whatsoever. That's what this great Monkey Cage post says anyway. It should be printed out and stapled to the forehead of every political pundit in America. Stop talking about Tuzla and Wright and Bitterness (and yes, I'm somewhat guilty of this too). Nobody cares. Really. Just stop. --Sam Boyd
