Debate night - I can't look

I can't look for a couple of reasons. One, I know what's going to happen. Two, no matter what happens, it's not going to change my vote, it's just going to piss me off.

Here's a sneak peek:

Lehrer: Mr. Bush, why do you enjoy killing Iraqi children for sport?
Bush: [Insert bumbling malaprop here]
Lehrer: Senator Kerry, why do you think Mr. Bush enjoys killing children, drinking their blood and drilling for oil where their carcasses lay?
Kerry: Well... [Insert condescending haughty long-winded prevarication disguised as policytalk]
Thank you gentlemen...

Now do you see why I can't watch?

Plenty of folks are live blogging in varying states of inebriation. (I'm taking it nice and slow with some bourbon whiskey while I avoid the debate.) Enjoy these roundups:

Blogs of War - stone cold sober
Johnny Walker Red - not live blogging, but probably drinking Budweiser and chain smoking
Ace of Spades - Ace has a hilarious drinking game in which you must participate
The Commissar - he doesn't appear to be drinking, but hard to say
Spoons - updating so quickly he must be sober
Martinipundit - Martini - shaken - but not sure if it's Gin or Vodka
Powerline - apparently it's getting pretty wild over there - well, as wild as bloggers can get
Armies of Liberation - finds good news with a snap bus stop poll

10/1 UPDATE:

The question on everyone's mind this morning is who won the debate?

From what I can tell, it depends on which way you're already leaning. I've been sampling the right-leaning bloggers mainly, and they're calling it a wash or a slight Bush victory. If you sample the lefties, it was a blowout for Lurch - he mopped the floor with Bush. What does this add up to? 6 1/2 tons of nothing.

If you're an elitist, internationalist, bedwetting NY-Times-reading surrender socialist, then you got all the multi-lateral U.N.-loving "Bush lied people died" garbage you wanted out of the debate. All the while, you enjoyed watching President Junior stumble while trying to remember his words.

If you are a Bush supporter, you may have done a lot of cringing, but you got a reminder that Bush is about substance, character and leadership in the global war on islamofascism. That's the only issue that matters this campaign.

I'm not voting for Bush to go win intellectual bullshit debates against the world's tin-pot dictators and Al Qaeda leadership. I'm voting for Bush so that all that's left of these tyrants and islamofascists is a greasy stain in the desert.

No debate is going to change the fact that Bush is willing to fight the war and Lurch is willing to hoist the white flag of surrender. And that's the bottom line, bitches.
