Monday’s clue was a toughie. It’s one thing to say memorize the Presidents before you go on Jeopardy! It’s another to remember who won in a given election year on the fly. Wednesday’s was no walk in the park either unless you already knew it. We thought that one was hardest. Tuesday’s military movie was one of the easy ones and Friday’s was obviously the easiest.
