in 25 minutes. I'm central time so 8pm

I can hear Bret Baher in another booth on the C-SPAN feed.

...Actually, I can hear a bunch of other reporters in other booths on the C-SPAN feed.

I am already in bed (long day) however, it will be interesting to read how the debate goes!!!!

Just a reminder before we start:

I've already downed half a drink in preparation. Hi-o!

Hi, all! And here we go!

Here we go - Libya

Libya is the first question? Wow. NEVER SAW THAT ONE COMING!!!

I know it was a coin-toss, but it's so weird for this question to get Romney responding first.

Damn, why do they spend so much time thanking people instead of giving their points?

On the plus side, better Romney get the Bin Laden football spiking out of the way before we go further.

I almost expect Obama to put Bin Laden's skull on the desk.

Evening everyone!

Whoa, first question's about the Middle East.

Obama's poker face is going to make me crack up in a minute. It's a lot less annoying than Biden's laugh-at-everything strategy, but I don't think he made one single expression the whole time Romney answered that.

Same old BS, Barrack

24 seconds in, and Obama's lying about his foreign policy. Shocking...not.

Dangerous drinking game - a shot every time Obama says "I".

We'd all die of cirrhosis before the end of the night.

Wait a minute, wasn't this the same administration that said the attack in Libya was the result of a "spontaneous protest"? Now there are people gathering in the streets saying we're their friends? What?

Cold War may be over, but Russia seems pretty active in helping give our other enemies a leg up and blocking action in the Security Council...

MTE....things are brewing in Russia...have been for years. I always know something big is going down when LJ has problems....no joke.

... and Romney's been interrupted so Obama can respond.

And then Romney used his time to give Obama more time...

On the plus side, nice to know Obama thinks the policies of the 80's, 50's and 20's are wrong. "It's wrong!!!"

And Obama acting confident... er. Whee?

Wait, ROMNEY was sending mixed messages to our troops? Funny, didn't think he was the one delivering the messages lately...

*sigh* I gotta say he's not coming out well on this question. Hope he pulls it together better as we continue.

...The moderator just made sure to give Romney fair time? What?

*blink, blink, blink*

After the botch-jobs of Raddatz and Crowley, yeah, he kinda in a box, here...

"Damnit."

YES!!!! Flexibility zinger!!!

Ooh, ZING on Putin!

The CNN undecided voters don't like the bickering. I can't stand it, either.

My TV just went on the fritz and made me miss most of Obama's comment just now. Even electronics are turning against him?

Erm, you'll have to get rid of the Muslim Brotherhood and Sharia Law before you can protect women in some of these Middle Eastern countries, Barack. You gonna speak out against them anytime soon?

Not just spilling into Lebanon, it's spilled into Turkey, too! *sigh*
