So it’s been a crazy week for presidential politics. McCain continues his dysfunctional campaign and Congress continues to work on a bailout. I’ve been away from the internet for the past week, but have had access to cable. So I watched the cable news shows and discovered that their explicit editorializing was a nice change of pace. (To contrast, last night I watched the presidential debate at home, limited to the major networks, and all I got were platitudes of how both candidates performed “well.”)

I won’t bother to retroactively post responses to events like Palin’s third disastrous interview or McCain’s farcical “suspension” of his campaign. Anyone unaware of the news still won’t be interested, and anyone keeping track is already informed.

Let’s go back to staring at the polls. We should see the first debate changing things in these coming days. And then it’s the VP debate(!)
