Looks like local dive bars won't be the only place New Yorkers will be head-banging to the all time sing-a-long rock anthem "Livin' on a Prayer."

Doesn't that seem a really long time ago?) But it's no easy task with all the chaos of the campaign trail: Helen's quote in favor of ex-con voting, the congressman's inability to get any info on the Kazakhstan situation and their poor kid yakking all over his Harry Potter costume. It looks like the entire Santos family is livin' on a prayer... oh, and caffeine.
