Need sum wood?

I'm in the camp who think the Presidential debates won't have a big impact on the outcome of the election. A good debate got people more excited about Kerry in '04, but Democrats already know Obama. Obama will probably get Democrats fired up. It's an opportunity for Romney, except that it's Mitt Romney. He looks out of place anywhere outside the JC Penny catalog.

Mostly, it's hard to believe a debate can hurt an incumbent too much after the trainwreck performances of George W. Bush. Remember, "need some wood?"


So, I'm mostly watching tonight for the entertainment value. Also, to hang out with a fun crowd at the Liberty Brew & View watch party. I'll most likely tweet during the debate because that's what good political blogger nerds do these days.
