Good morning. Here's what you need to know for Thursday, Sept. 17, 2015:
Did you watch last night’s GOP presidential debate and play the drinking game we suggested yesterday morning?
If you did, and chose Gov. John Kasich as your candidate, you might be having a rough morning.
Take an ibuprofen, guzzle down some water and read up on the results from debatedrinking.com.
Viewers who chose to imbibe after Kasich’s keywords “Ohio” and “budget” tallied 71 drinks during the more than three-hour debate.
At the pace Kasich was going, and depending on your measurement units, you might’ve killed three beers even before the event’s halfway point.
