TWITTER WINS THE FINAL DEBATE

Ain't no debate party like a Twitter debate party.
By Melissa Presti (Book Publisher)

I had every intention of presenting a clear and logical reflection on the final Presidential debate last night but I hit two road blocks:

1. I underestimated my plan (sobriety) to prep for the debate by taking a drink for every Facebook friend of mine that "liked" the Mitt Romney fan page (read: 28 friends...though as an Ohioan that number is actually optimistic)
2. Twitter is HILARIOUS. I follow educated, well-informed citizens who are completely capable of a well-placed misogynistic, unpatriotic, sarcastic tweet without offending. So I was distracted, to say the least.

Obama would have my vote even if he sat in the debates as a mute. He defends my rights as a woman, the rights of my gay friends, and he ended a war that killed my friend. So, Mittens, whatever.

You can judge my twitter feed for yourself, but I was stock-piling some gems throughout the 90 minute game of Battleship:

Biden out.

Definitely in favor of candidates who defend our rights as women, and ditto for gays. Why can't the republicans get off these subjects and onto the things that matter to the American people?
