Best answer of the night from Mayor Pete on why the SBPD didn't fix their diversity problem:

"Because I couldn't get it done."

Honesty, to a degree not common among run-of-the-mill politicians, is so damn refreshing.

Get your schedule cleared and your vacation requests in!

David Axelrod sums up Biden's boy gaffe in a nutshell on Cuomo tonight.

It wasn't a window into his feelings about race. It was a window into his ability to say the wrong thing at the wrong time.

Nailed it.

Well, Lindsey Graham came out and poo-pooed Biden's latest gaffe.

That should make everyone feel better.
