To call it the great debate is to besmirch the memory of Lincoln and Douglas, particularly now that the level of mud-slinging has accelerated to epic proportions on both sides. But just like the train-wreck you see coming, you can't take your eyes off the track. Here's hoping Obama shows some real passion and that McCain comes completely unhinged (there's only about two screws left in those hinges, and they look pretty rusty). Whatever happens, tonight's dust-up in Nashville should prove interesting.
Will Obama come out warm fully locked-on to the voters, and ready to do battle (as opposed to a more staid parry and thrust)? Or will he play the cool detached professor again? Will John McCain come out as the folksy "maverick," or the deranged Captain Queeg? Will they stick close to their established personas and leave us scratching our heads at one more snooze-fest, or will one of them take a real shot at either the issues or their opponent?
