Rush Limbaugh: Winner of Democratic debate was… Santa Claus

October 17, 2015 By Kathy Shaidle

Check out my new Talk Radio Watch column for highlights from the week in American talk radio.

PLUS:

Mark Steyn keeps his weekly date with Hugh Hewitt:

HH: It is. It’s really unfortunate at the debate this week with the Democrats did not spend the entire time on the collapse of Middle Eastern policy. I thought the former Secretary of State was allowed to skate on this, Mark Steyn. What did you think?

MS: Well, I thought Kirsten Powers, actually, on Fox News, I think it was just yesterday, put it very well when she said that this is something that the Democrat base is just not interested in. They’re not interested in ISIS. They’re not interested in Iran. The trick with foreign policy, as everybody from Lincoln Chafee to Bernie Sanders demonstrated, foreign policy as a subject is something that a successful Democrat candidate wants to steer as far clear of as he can. And in a way, that’s for the best. I mean, if you look at where the Fetching Mrs. Hewitt is at the moment in Jerusalem, where they have this epidemic of random stabbings, and the United States government has had absolutely nothing useful to say about that.
