Doh!

channel ten news in tampa just reran parts of the piece and wendy ryan was bantering with her co anchor walt maciborski when the anchor called kevin "stupid" for saying he'd go out again in a TS. I can just see this repeated at all ABC stations around the country tonite

thank goodness the DNC starts today....
