    I was drinking a lot of wine the other night and think I heard on the news that McCain was withdrawing from the debates to fix some crap? But he didn’t?

    An add on the WaPo (or was it the WSJ) told me that Mc Cain won the debate. He’s just that amazing.

    Back on topic: Anywhere can we go OUT to watch the debate in town? Like they do in DC on the big screen TVs?

    I’m in no way an apathetic voter, having researched voting records, past speeches, etc of the candidates, but I’d have an easier time trying to wipe a bobcat’s ass with sandpaper in a telephone booth than getting myself to watch yet another car on the tracks in the train wreck that has become politics in this country.

    I cringe listening to either one.

    /I swear I’m not anarchical but goddamn if it doesn’t kill me to watch people who essentially work for us bend us over and we gladly take it up the tail pipe. It’s our country, damn it. Not theirs.

    //I’m also a fan of metaphors and cliches, btw.

    my strategy so far has been to drink plenty of anchor steam and periodically catch myself staring at the floor, instead of listening to skeletor and the chosen one.
