***Note, once again, the unusual time and location!***

The first, last, and only Vice-Presidential debate is tonight, from 9pm to 10:30pm. This will be your only chance to watch "Vinegar Joe" Lieberman duke it out with "Desert-Storm Dick" Cheney in a no-holds-barred battle of sound-bites.

Will moderator Bernard Shaw destroy a candidate with a single question the way he destroyed Dukakis? Will the rabbit-ear antenna I'm bringing help us get better TV reception than we had for the Tuesday night debate? Will Lieberman say "wealthiest 1%" and "lockbox" as often as Gore did? Will Cheney follow Bush's lead and recommend that we turn to Mexico to reduce our dependency on foreign energy sources? Will Lieberman steal the religion and morality vote from the GOP? Will Cheney steal the... uhm. Someone remind me what demographic he hopes to attract to the ticket; they can't possibly be aiming only for oil-barons, can they?

Join your fellow labfolk once again as we tune in, turn on, and drop pizza down our maws while mocking the debate in a pathetic attempt at detaching ourselves emotionally from the devastating possibility that a really big dummy could win this election.
