Jeralyn has already noted that our own Tom Tancredo didn’t have a great showing at last night’s GOP Presidential debate. Things were so bad, as M.E.

But Tancredo did have at least one highlight, if you want to call it that. You can see him on the far right of this video from last night’s debate, where he was one of three candidates (Sen. Sam Brownback and Gov. Mike Huckabee were the others) in response to the question, “Who here does not believe in evolution?”
