WAKING-UP TO watch the debates is throwing my sleep pattern into circles. And as usual with presidential and vice-presidential debates, they're a bit disappointing -- in the sense that they have become far too predictable. Perhaps it's the 24-hour news channels and the internet, but I'm struck by the fact that these debates rarely (never?) reveal anything new. Instead it boils down to things like: why didn't McCain look directly at Obama? Why did Palin wink at the camera like a Hooters waitress? Why did McCain call Obama "that one"? Is Obama being disrespectful to McCain by calling him "John"?
Just under four weeks to go. My absentee ballot is coming soon and I can't wait to tick the box for Obama -- for a lot of reasons which I won't go into now. But you can bet I will before Nov. 4.
