    More importantly, game one of the NLCS and game two of the ACLS have started!! The debates offer me nothing new - just scripted responses from both parties. The baseball games are proving pretty exciting though.

    While it was a joke I think Salon.com did a brief comment on it today in the Fix and interviewed a tailor who stated that there was no way that the buldge could've been a wrinkle or what have you in the fabric of his jacket. Whether this is used as any type of way to "coach" him i'm unsure. but i wouldn't put it past either candidate. Sorry the two major contenders are both ... shall we say... eh not great choices. I wont' vote for bush so this really doesn't bother me, but i'm debating whether i should vote for kerry now too... the third debate didn't give me much other than it's easy to push bushes buttons ;) I know this was a bit off topic but. ah well.. no real reliable source can confirm it.. but read the little blurb on salon.com and maybe it'll be worth the extra bit of info...
