So who won the VP debate?

Forget about including the VP nominees. The CPD should include a third party candidate to make things more interesting.

Hey I'm all for that too.. provided of course that said 3rd party candidate can manage to garner more than 1% of the vote for a change (hey there's that word again... whaddayakno!)

Last time a 3rd party candidate was featured on the debates was in '92 when Ross Perot helped swing the election for the Democrats.  That's really all third parties are good for... Nader did it to Gore in 2000 as well.  I'd love to meet someone who voted for Perot though, just to ask them what the fuck were they thinking.

Unfortunately, there really is no room for any of the third parties on the ballot this election, because all the would-be Nader/Kucinich/far left voters have flocked to Obama's camp so they have nothing, and Bob Barr and that other right wing dude who's name escapes me at the moment have pretty much been marginalized due to the Republican/conservative base being energized by Sarah Palin.  Then of course there's Ron Paul, who had a cult following of his own that made the O-bots look tame in comparison.  I'd also love to meet someone who writes in Ron Paul this election, just to ask them what the fuck they were thinking.
