          Democrats scheduled six separate responses to the president's address - the official response, the Spanish-language response, the Sen. Bernie Sanders response, the socialist response, the Rep. Maxine Waters response and the celebrity response.

          The only one I'm interested in is the one tonight by "Auntie" Mad Maxine Waters. It oughta be a hoot.

                Mr. Rogers thinks it's because the party doesn't currently have the unity to get behind a single response.

                  That's interesting, because it's always been a problem that the liberals marched in lockstep together WAY better than the conservatives.

                  THIS Mr Rogers?
