I stopped the channel for a few minutes when I saw the Democratic candidates lined up on MSNBC for a debate. Surprisingly, our son asked if he could watch along for a little while.  Oh, you sweet, perfect little freak, you.

Here are a few of his remarks:

Are they going to talk about Iraq? I want to know who will stop the  fighting and bring the soldiers back safe.

I’m trying to decide between that one guy and Hillary Clinton.

I think I like that one man…the man…who..with the darker skin. He seems pretty good.

I’m kinda rooting for all of them. I might decide later who I want to pick.

Okay, I’m done now. Can we watch something else? Like the Phillies?

Ze applez, ze fall not so far from ze tree, no?
