Ray Lutz and
Michael Benoit definitely raise the bar.

Water, diluted apple juice and vitamins. Too bad. Apple juice doesn't agree with me. ...
Of course, in the 52nd district, Lutz and Benoit could debate Hunter 24 hours a day till Nov. 2 and still lose big-time. Such are the demographics of the district. ...
