Presidential Debate? Too Bad It Won't Be Rained Out

Andrew Levine's insightful item in Counterpunch is worthy of one's attention. Here's a taste:

And so the fate of the world hinges on body language, “attitude” (combative or passive), and gaffes.  Could the absurdity be greater?  And could there be a more bizarre way to select the Commander-in-Chief of an overblown military empire in decline?

There is nothing to do but avert one’s gaze and cry out in despair: only in America.

It looks like game seven of the St Louis-San Francisco National League baseball contest [a real contest, unlike our Presidential Election] will be rained out.

What to do? Listen to The Devine Sarah, I guess - Sarah Lois Vaughn.
