First two quick observations on last night's WWL debate.
- Tom Watson was more articulate and on-point than he has been in previous episodes. Watson's campaign is, above all else, a missed opportunity. In a campaign populated by ineffectual yuppie do-gooders like Boulet, gleeful ethnic cleansers like Forman and Couhig, total whack jobs like Wilson and Butler, and opportunistic clowns like Nagin, Watson could have been the soldier for justice that the campaign needed. Over all he has failed to do this.
- The mayor's closing statement included the phrase, (when Katrina came)"I stayed, and I fussed." Some day I'll get to run someone's campaign. And when that day comes, the world will see bumper stickers that say things like "Stay and fuss with Ray" Unfortunately for Nagin, he made no move to hire me.

Update: Some sites whose opinions we respect (although not always agree with) do endorsements. Read them yourself.
