I gotta learn to read — I thought the debate was tonight. Oh well, guess I’ll see the highlights or lowlights tonight.

I’m hoping somebody hogties Chris Matthews and Matthews impersonator Daryl Hammond replaces him. ;-)

I think the odds are extremely good that more than 1 candidate will push back against a question from Matthews. He’s been asking for it and it will play well with the base.

The debate is tonight if you're watching live from France, for instance. :)

Hmmm. I suppose they want to dominate the nightly talks shows, beginning with Hume at 6 PM EST.

Thanks.

LOL

Seriously, I wonder if any of the debate will show up on international news. I get the English version of DW from Germany — I believe for the last debate, the news did a story on it. Kind of surprised me, since the station is somewhat anti-American and pro-Democratic party.

Well, the markets close at 4 pm Eastern, and my guess is Maria is usually home by 6:30.

Here’s hoping Keith Doldrums isn’t doing the play by play or “color commentary.” :)

I don’t get the facination with Maria. She’s exceedingly average, and isn’t nearly as much fun to look at as the babes on Fox.
