... Starts at 8 p.m.

I'll try and blog from there, if technical difficulties don't get me down.

UPDATE:
Whew. The wireless connection is working. I'm in the studio waiting for the debate to start. The audience is mostly here, everyone's being told to get their bathroom breaks in and turn off their cells.
AP reporter Matt Volz is sitting in the folding chair to my left. Cynthia Toohey is on the right.
7:52 p.m.

haven't there been enough debates

Enough already. We know where all three stand on everything that matters and also know more than enough about their competence and their character.

Plus I'm tired of seeing Palin stare at the camera with her I have no clue what I'm talking about but vote for me anyway smile.

Might as well reduce the suffering by voting absentee tomorrow and checking back in on Tuesday night.

Please do what's best for the future of Alaska and vote Knowles and No on 2!

I have all ready early vote for Sarah and yes on one and two.

Well...

I guess we'll be cancelling each other out.

Signwaver: it's you and

turdball.

ps Kyle: Can you do something about this tasteless stuff. If these republican Palin supporters want to go to a porn site, they need to call Mark Foley- not post here,

Hey bro,

I have nothing to do with your side sending nude pic representations of the Princess
out in emails.

Or dividing emails by Geogiana Cadillac.

I can say whatever I want.

None of my stuff is rude, sick, or pornographic.

Just killer insightful....unlike your long drawnout boring wiseacreings.

Think Velcro.

And stuff it.

in front of the mirror.
