VP debate observes ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ on Fast and Furious

Likewise, Ryan has gone so far as to raise funds off the issue, and RNC Chair Reince Priebus promised last December to make Fast and Furious a campaign issue.

I just spoke with him briefly and conveyed the prayers of those of you who have expressed them to me, as well as shared some personal sentiments without being maudlin about it.

UPDATE: As with last time, he's here.  And they've also diagnosed the chronic hiccups/swallowing difficulties.
