Okay, tell me what's happening on the television screen people, if you want and if convenient.

Now, I'm not expecting--and far from demanding--that others keep me (and others not in front of a television set) 100% informed; just to comment only if they feel like it.

I, on the other hand, as host of this "live" thread, am voluntarily obligated to hang around it, to keep it moving.

Still no 1 on stage yet, Fox News is partnering with Twitter tonight. I'm also on Twitter so I'll post things from the debate that are posted there.

I was watching Cavuto. I absolutely abhor O'Reilley.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

Jim Lehrer still babbling, the audience isn't allowed to boo or cheer.

Polite applause from the audience.

Romney with the red aggressive tie and Obama with the blue passive tie, I think we can see where this is going.

Segment 1 on the economy, talking about jobs.

Obama goes 1st, mentions his wedding anniversary, avoiding discussion about jobs so far.

Now Obama is talking about 4 years ago and mentions the auto industry, says 5 million jobs have been created.

Oh now, guys, I don't expect you to baby-sit me.

Just pop in once in a while to say something, that's all.

OMG!  I noticed that too.  About 15 seconds into his "blah blah blah" I checked with my husband to make sure I also heard the moderator ask a question about jobs.

Romney talking about his plan, talking about small business start-up. BTW Romney is very soft spoken.

Oh, he mentions Obama's trickle down Government not working.

Lehrer asks Obama to explain trickle down that Romney mentioned.

Obama again talks about schools (BTW we pay over $13,000 per student how the heck much more are we supposed to pay)
