“To a large extent, we won,” he said. …

That doesn’t sound like much of a victory to me.

Glad to hear they think they won. This is like Obama jumping in front of a parade going by and declaring that it is his parade.

Yeah - Fox regularly outdraws the opposition CNN and MSNBC combined by about 2 to 1 - fantasyland, and the living is easy.....
