Do we have to wait until he dies to find out what kind of skeletons are in Bill Kristol’s closet? I’m like a kid on Christmas morning around 6:30AM - I want to see it now!

I’m watching this thing on Saturday morning due to some sort of “rehearsal dinner” last night, whatever that’s about. Jim Leher is explaining the rules and it already sounds like a 21st century version of dodge ball, set up so nobody’s feelings or asses will get hurt. Here we go…
