CNN did not ask a question about abortion

Am I the only one who found this surprising?  CNN did not ask a question about abortion during the two debates.
In fact, even Planned Parenthood complained about it, according to this tweet:    
In nearly 3 hours, there was not one question on abortion access or reproductive health care — despite the fact that the Trump administration is actively trying to dismantle our nation’s program for affordable birth control with a gag rule.
No question about “reproductive rights”?   Wonder why?
I would have expected, as the tweet suggests, for the candidates to unleash a fierce attack against President Trump.
But no question was asked!
I cannot read the minds of the moderators but this could not be an honest oversight.  My guess is that they avoided this issue to keep former VP Biden from getting into another fight with the left wing.
Or did the moderators ran out of time or had too much to talk about?  
Sorry, but it’s hard to believe that Democrats would have a debate and not have an opportunity to tell us about “reproductive rights.”   Or maybe they have internal polling that tells them that later term abortion is not playing well between the coasts.
P.S.  You can listen to my show (Canto Talk) and follow me on Twitter.

Remembering Skeeter Davis and the saddest of all sad pop songs!


It started out as a country hit but quickly went to the pop charts too.  It continues to get a lot of airplay on the radio even though it was recorded in 1962.    In fact, there are new versions of the song constantly.

Skeeter Davis died in 2004.  

It was her biggest hit and still resonates with the "brokenhearted".  

This is my "vote" for the saddest song ever recorded:



"Why does the sun go on shining? Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world,

'Cause you don't love me any more?

Why do the birds go on singing? Why do the stars glow above?

Don't they know it's the end of the world.

It ended when I lost your love.

I wake up in the morning and I wonder,

Why everything's the same as it was.
I can't understand. No, I can't understand,

How life goes on the way it does.

Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry?

Don't they know it's the end of the world.

It ended when you said goodbye.

Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry?

Don't they know it's the end of the world.

It ended when you said goodbye."
