As I said here, everyone got their own question and therefore, no "piling on" for answers. Sure, they got the chance to figure out their answers a couple of days ahead of time as Moderator Nancy Stiles said at the beginning. Personally, I wish the questions had just been sprung on them rather than the chance to wordsmith / memorize / and deliver. Still, it was easy to figure out, for me, who has said similar stuff in the past (and not) and who spoke as they normally would (or didn’t).
Your mileage will vary, especially if you do NOT search the ‘Grok for past performances – the ENTIRE reason why I am spending so much time doing these videos and traveling all over the State. Effectively:
I record (w/out comment) – YOU watch, YOU decide.
And decide based on information rather than only "Feelings" (nice for a song, not for elections).
I do want to say "THANKS" to Diane Bitter of the Seacoast Republican Women who invited the ‘Grok!
