I had to take off work early due to the high ragweed count in Oklahoma and a cold so I have had CNN HD on since I got home about 12:30 CDT.  I've even got Debate Night in America from 7-8 to record on my DVR, as well as the debate itself, plus Debate Night in America from 10-11 all on DVR tonight.

He was admitted briefly this afternoon for a mild seizure due to a change in medication.  He is back home now watching the debate.

I know. So McCain screwed up, basically.

He probably didn't have the latest information, so I give him a pass on that.

I don't understand these charts at the bottom of CNN...I mean, if I'm voting, I'm putting Obama at the very top and McCain at the very bottom.

I've got CNN HD, so I'm able to see the pundits scorecard on the side of the screen, two democrat, two republican, and two supposedly neutral.  Castellanos (Rep) and Begala (Dem) are lighting up their scorecard while Gloria Borger (neutral) has nothing on hers, yet.

Alright, this is what I like!!  As Paul Begala said on an article on CNN.com earlier this week, tonight is supposed to be partisan, and it definitely is!!!

Borger still has nothing on her scorecard.  Castellanos has hit his 15 times 6 positive, 2 neg for McCain and 5 pos, 2 neg on Obama

why does mccain keep giggling like a moron?

I noticed that, too, and I bet it won't set to well with the undecided voters.  Remember, facial and bodily gestures during a debate can kill campaigns, just ask GHWB in 1992 and Al Gore in 2000.
