Horsefeathers

Perhaps I watched a different race.

Not only did Philip Klein place the loss on Big Brown's lack of stamina, the son of the owner of Affirmed did the same -- with three examples.

In the race I watched (admittedly on television, which could explain the discrepancy), Big Brown seemed to come out of the gate in last place and ended up there at the end.

In order to accept the notion that he lost because of a lack of stamina, I have to accept that that lack of stamina manifested itself in the first 50 yards.

They continue to reelect the very people whose policies keep them in poverty. No debate presence is going to change that. The MSM.
