  • Lots of traffic. Didn’t make it home in time. I have c-span radio on in the car though. 01:04:47
  • For the record, at this second I am parked to pick up Alex at his school. I am not tweeting while driving down the highway. 01:05:34
  • First comment: Nooooooo! NOT LARRY KING!!!! Noooooooo! 01:06:11
  • Home now. Switching to TV. First question about top 2 primaries. They don’t like it. Surprise! Some say leave to states. Like that better. 01:25:45
  • Larry King forgot about opening statements. They are going back to do that now. Too funny. 01:27:39
  • For some reason my twitter feed is not spinning out of control with debate comments on the 3rd party debate like it was on the others. :-/ 01:29:19
  • Johnson giving opening statement. So far hasn’t said a single thing I disagree with. 01:31:47
  • OK, now he has. Balanced budget in 2013 would be irresponsible I think. 01:32:04
  • Larry King sucked before he retired. He still sucks. 01:33:07
  • I really knew nothing about any of these guys except Johnson before tonight. Trying to learn about them. 01:33:35
  • RT @indecision: Whoever answers this war on drugs question by firing up a massive blunt wins. #thirdpartydebate 01:34:04
  • I’d never heard of Anderson at all. Kinda like him. 01:34:36
  • RT @kgosztola: “We don’t just need to legalize marijuana. We need to end drug prohibition.” Treat as public health issue @RockyAnderson … 01:34:57
  • RT @dccommonsense: I like all these people. I guess I am “easy” when it comes to these 3d Party/Indie types…

    #debates 01:35:43
  • Johnson looks mad. Why is he so mad? 01:37:10
  • I like Stein too. Didn’t expect to. 01:40:10
  • Not particularly liking Goode though. 01:40:28
  • RT @daveweigel: I was going to watch the third party debate, but then I realize that I’ll be dead one day and don’t want to waste my life. 01:40:36
  • Larry King is such an ass. 01:42:14
  • I generally agree with these guys on the drug war stuff, but it makes them seem like whack jobs when they yell about it. 01:43:42
  • Brandy is complaining about Goode’s accent. 01:44:00
  • RT @indecision: Now imagining Gary Johnson sitting at home, smoking a joint and listening to “How Will I Know” #thirdpartydebate 01:44:45
  • RT @indecision: Foreign policy suggestion: send Virgil Goode overseas, have him negotiate with al Qaeda until they plead for mercy. #thi … 01:45:28
  • Johnson on balanced budget in one year thing again. Too fast. Would tank economy. 01:46:04
  • OK with some of the reductions, just change that is too sudden would cause damage. 01:46:59
  • Alex wants me to pause the debate so I can play trains. “PAUSE THAT DADDY! PAUSE NOW!” 01:49:55
  • “MAKE IT STOP!” – Alex on 3rd party debate 01:50:31
  • RT @declanm: I’m enjoying the third party presidential debate much more than I thought I would. Tune in: http://t.co/QUbCKiO1 #thirdpart … 01:51:18

  • Larry King would like the question to be rebuttal. 01:53:03
  • Not sure I agree with Johnson on government role in student loans. Perhaps has a point on long term price adjustments, but in mean time… 01:55:28
  • RT @dccommonsense: College loan question will divide the 2 progressive debaters from the 2 conservative ones
    #ore2012
    #NowThatsADebate
    … 01:55:36
  • So far my take away from 3P debate: Johnson good, but I disagree more than I thought. Meanwhile, need 2 learn more about Stein & Anderson. 02:00:01
  • I generally lean against govt involvement where it doesn’t need to be. But I think education & healthcare may be two places it is needed. 02:02:33
  • All of these guys are going to be against NDAA / Indefinite detention, etc. Good. Biggest argument against Obama for me. 02:05:19
  • Alex just hit me in the head with a basketball several times. Headache now. 02:05:54

  • Goode wants amendment for term limits. 02:12:12
  • Johnson also wants term limits. 02:13:12
  • RT @lapetiteradical: The position “the president shouldn’t be able to indefinitely detain and assassinate U.S. citizens” is relegated to … 02:14:32
  • Stein wants an amendment to declare money not speech and corporations not people. 02:15:31
  • Closing statements! 02:17:08
  • RT @daveweigel: If you’re not an idiot, you notice that term limits in the states have greatly enhanced the power of unions, lobbyists. 02:17:38
  • Goode is very anti-immigrant, ain’t he? 02:18:18
  • Johnson emphasizing resume. I think I like several of these guys, but Johnson only one with basic prerequisites to be President. 02:19:46
  • Meaning Governor, Senator or VP. Long time since someone not one of those became president. 02:21:11
  • RT @kgosztola: “Wasting your vote is voting for someone you don’t believe in.” -@GovGaryJohnson #thirdpartydebate 02:21:17

  • RT @dccommonsense: Stein and Johnson have a strident tone that sounds a bit desperate (not that it’s not warranted).Anderson has a good … 02:24:08
  • This was actually a fun debate to watch. Too bad they don’t get to debate Obama and Romney directly. 02:25:27
  • Some idiot puts a Johnson sign behind Larry King. 02:25:53
  • There will be a second third party debate? OK, I liked this, but not sure we need two. 02:29:48
  • Ah, it will only be the top two after an Internet poll. :-/ 02:30:33
  • And we’re done. 02:30:51
  • RT @kgosztola: At no point during this event was I disgusted or offended entirely. What a great democratic experience #thirdpartydebate 02:31:49
  • RT @indecision: Nobody name-checked Sesame Street characters, office supplies or archaic weapons. They all lose. #thirdpartydebate 02:31:55

  • Home. Online search told me unplug all USB etc and reboot with one button press rather than hold to reset. 03:45:49
  • iMac now showing odd slow grey progress bar. Some sort of firmware reset? Anyway, signs of life. 03:46:27
  • At current rate seems like this progress bar will take 30-40 minutes to finish. Maybe up to an hour. 03:47:51
  • Has been going 30 minutes now. Progress bar about 25%. Guess it will end up more like two hours. Wonder what will happen when it hits 100%. 04:11:35
  • After about 90 minutes, it is just under a third of the way now. This will take forever. Wonder what it is doing. Wonder if it will help. 05:06:23
  • Went to sleep before iMac was done. Seems to now be working. Will have to wait for after work to run through paces. 13:15:20
  • I will make sure this week’s Curmudgeon’s Corner gets out tonight iMac or no. I pulled the needed files off @backblaze yesterday. 13:25:40
  • Crossing my fingers though. IMac looks like it may be back and working normally. 13:26:07

  • Spoiler: Romney’s lead in Montana went over 10% in my five poll average. No actual impact to race. 17:43:19

  • RT @ThoughtnDesign: @abulsme @wellred70 If Candy Crowley does a good job, I say we give up on male moderators and let the ladies reign. 01:04:50
  • So far Romney solid again. And relating to the questioner. 01:05:17
  • I like the color coded countdown clock. 01:05:49

  • RT @dandrezner: BREAKING: it is NOT the job of the Energy Department to keep gas prices low. 01:12:49
  • Just 15 minutes in but barring major change in the rest of the debate, this should be enough to halt Romney gains. Which is enuf for O win. 01:14:43
  • RT @ThoughtnDesign: @abulsme Not Preezy-dential. 01:14:53

  • I actually wish Crowley wouldn’t take control and “move on”. The back and forth is much more interesting. 01:24:23
  • I’m all for completely free form. Just let the two of them talk for two hours and manage the back & forth themselves. No mod. No audience. 01:25:18

  • RT @LarrySabato: Another Bill Clinton reference. Obama is building a bridge to the 20th century. 01:30:18
