The Great Debate

As I type, I am watching or listening to McCain and Obama debate their views. I don't like to discuss politics so this is going to be lighthearted. You may be surprised that this is the first presidential debate I have ever watched (at least I'm planning to watch the entire thing). I've seen bits and pieces of previous debates. I especially enjoy the Saturday Night Live skits...check this one out...

The news will without a doubt cover the highlights over and over and over...

I'm actually cracking up because the two of them going at it reminds me of my kids fighting. "I want to do this, but she did this. No, I didn't. He did this. That's not true. Remember when she did this to me? Well, she did it again."

If you didn't notice, Todd Smith from the Christian group Selah is sitting in the front row of spectators. Click here to check out his wife's blog.

I have to pay more attention to the debate, but I'll be back...

O.K. The last question was my favorite. If you missed it, here it is. "What don't you know and how will you learn it?"

The part that made me laugh so hard I almost cried was the very end when both candidates were in the way of Tom Brokaw being able to see his script that was projected on the wall. Too bad we won't see that played over and over and over...
