Gratuitous Post-Nashville Observation
Debate? Debate?
I spent a cool, crisp, glorious October evening yesterday watching the eldest Llama-ette's softball team (and hemi-demi-semi-coaching it) play with pure joy and verve, whaling on their rival like a pack of ten year old Sawx.
I certainly wasn't going to go home after that and kill the buzz.
So if you want gen-u-ine post-debate reax, you're going to need to ask LMC or Gary or even, if you're feeling lucky, Steve-O.

Otherwise, I flipped on the TV long enough to make sure I didn't see anyone I knew and then turned it back off so that I could read a book. I want to see a real debate some day, these media productions certainly aren't that and the "town hall" is the worst of all.
