Letter: Democratic vs Republican debates

While listening to the AM radio “gurus” rant and scream about how the Democratic presidential debate was so horrific, so pointless, so ... et cetera, et cetera ...

I had to wonder if they actually watched it, because I did with a friend and I thought it was rather good.

Now it occurred to me that if comparing the two Republican debates and the first of six Democratic debates to a national newsstand magazine title, I would have to say that the Democratic debate compares to Time magazine and the Republican debates to Mad magazine.

Just telling it like it is.
