Ive been in Hawaii for the week and we spent the better part of an hour looking for a public venue to watch the debates. We asked out concierge where to go and he was flummoxed. We asked at a number of hotel bars, but they didnt have tv. We went to a sports bar which had 12 tv screens, but they were unwilling to put the debates on even one screen. We went back to our place and watched it there.
It was fine. I think J would have liked a little more yelling at the screen, but mainly it was rather boring. J continues to say that he is waiting for some alien to reach out of McCain's face. I dont feel like that. To me he looked a little like the pillsbury doughboy gone a little stale. Obama had his beautiful smile and wholesome good looks.
In re substance - I didnt learn a lot that I didnt already know. However, I will continue to watch the debates. I look forward to each of them.
