I only listened to a few minutes of this debate. Originally I was thinking of listening more, but, what's the point. Ah politicians. I'm not usually so cynical...

So I want to watch debates in the same style of Pop Up Video with FactCheck.org. So that every time a candidate says a stupid lie or misrepresentation, there's pop and you can see the fact correctly.

That'd be awesome!

Purr to Me!

The only reason I watched for a few minutes is because it was being held at my alma mater Washington University in St. Louis. I have been in that hall before, so I just thought it would be cool to see it making history. No real value to the debate, just more of the same he said/she said, then an "oh no you di int" thrown in there too.

Or here's a novelty: what if fact-checking organizations were allowed to attend these things with buzzers, so that whenever a candidate makes a misrepresentation, the fact-checkers can chime in with an "Actually..."

Meh. I've determined that the best thing we all can do at this point is vote and pray to the Universal Deities that our fellow citizens will make the right choice on November 4th.

I don't have cable, so I didn't even get to see them. I'll do some reading on them this morning. However...that being said...I LOVE the idea of Pop-Up Video debates. That would be awesome.

I'm not a big Palin or Biden fan but I thought they both did an excellent job rhetorically. It was a good debate.
