I was planning to write up something with my reaction to tonight’s presidential debate but I didn’t get to see it. As most of you know, Nicole works nights and with two little girls to take care of I cannot just sit down and watch 90 minutes of debate at 8:00 PM. That’s bedtime. So I set up our DVR to record it. Girls are in bed by 9:00; Daddy sits down to watch the debate.
Well, that was the plan. You see, I recorded the debate on C-SPAN. I like C-SPAN because I think their coverage is usually a little more thoughtful than the pundit shoutfests you get on CNN/Fox/MSNBC. Unfortunately for me, C-SPAN apparently changed their mind about the schedule and decided to show the debate on C-SPAN2. Or maybe the cable company is to blame for not updating their listings. I don’t know. What I do know is that my recording of the debate ended up being a bunch of idiot Congressmen in an empty House reading resolutions into the Congressional Record. This is the perfect end to what has been a less-than-great week.
I know the debate is probably available online. And it will probably be shown again this weekend on at least one of the news channels. So I will get something posted eventually. But not tonight.
