Politics Watch the Debates with Us, Why Don'tcha?
Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Tue, Oct 7, 2008 at 4:10 PM
Fine, the presidential debates don't have the same smack of sexiness and danger we were expecting from the V.P. debates -- but tonight's Obama vs. McCain throw-down is still gonna be a corker! Presented in the "town hall-style" format, Obama and McCain will field questions from the audience. And while McCain swears that this is the format in which he excels, if he tries some of the lying bullshit he's been pulling out of his ass for the past few days (and weeks), he could easily get called on it and humiliated.
YAY HUMILIATION!
Join the Mercury tonight as we revel in every potentially humiliating moment of the debates, at either the Clinton Street Theater (2522 SE Clinton, in high def on the big screen) or Roots Organic Brewery (1520 SE 7th, they've opened up the big room). Both are guaranteed to get huge crowds, so show up early (5:30 at the latest!) to grab a beer and the best seats!
AND! If you absolutely can't make it, you can still join us live online as we LIVE BLOG THE SHIT OUT OF THIS PUPPY. Check back in with Blogtown at 5:30 pm, and throw in your comments as well!
Tonight, somebody's gettin' an ass whuppin'.
