These Days: Tuesday, March 8th, 2016

The Race For The Presidency: Former New York Mayor Michael Bloom proved New York City was a governable city, something our current Mayor can’t seem to get right. Unfortunately, with Clinton surging in the polls, Bloomberg isn’t finding the space between the two candidates he needs for an independent run for the presidency. Why? Because the US is in any one but Trump mode and anything and Mike is too smart to hurt Clinton’s chances by siphoning off her votes.

Live: Were you in Havana last night? If you were you were perhaps you were among the 450,000 fans outside the US Embassy not trying to get here but partying like crazy to Diplo-Major Lazer. The sound of young Cuba is apparently an 808.

Recorded: Yes, it is that part of the week again, where Friday seems like a million miles away and you just can’t listen to that Wussy album one more time while you think the “B+” might well have been an overreach. And that Kenrick “A-“? When does it get actually, you know, catchy.

Sports: “Sharapova, who has battled injuries in recent years, said that at the Australian Open, she tested positive for the drug meldonium, which aids oxygen flow.” It sure hits me as though there should be a better way to keep cheats away from enhancers than jeopardizing drugs that should be entirely legal.
