If this is any indication of things to come, tomorrow's Palin-Biden debate could prove the single most entertaining trainwreck in television history. And we want you to share this moment with other inebriated strangers. So, readers, would you let us know of any Bay Area bars, all of them, hosting a viewing party for the big showdown? Thanks. Oh, and you can let us know of said venues in the comments or email them......

Reader Chris writes SFist to ask the following: Do you guys know if any bars/lounges plan on broadcasting the presidential debate on Friday? Hmm. Well, we know about this one happening at the Roxie. But that has those-who-laugh-self-consciously-loud-at-Shakespearian-comedies-in-the-Embarcadero-Cinemas attendees written all over it. Does anybody (or any bar managers/employees) have word on whether or not their favorite watering hole will show Friday's Presidential debate? Let us know in the comment. Please. Then, on Friday......

Although we were much too busy with failed attempts at bit-part stardom to care about our civic duty this weekend -- a mistake we'll never make again -- we have read some interesting tidbits covering Saturday's Leno/Migden/some other candidate district 3 dance-off, or whatever. Ahem: -- San Francisco Blog claims that "Senator Carole Migden...took the high road and chose not to engage in dirty politics." Well, that's no fun. And...skewed perhaps. Also, it seems......

The airtight smiles. Awesome. For those of you somehow not tempted into becoming a part of Van Santian art -- or, you know, if you sport a vagina -- might we suggest catching round II of the Leno vs. Migden smackdown? Sponsored by the Harvey Milk Club, this meeting is sure to ruffle a few plumes and have local politicos affectedly scratching their chins for days to come. That's right, kids, it's on. It is......

In a final tip of the hat that sums up this year's (disappointing) election, Gavin Watch has celebrity candidate Chicken John's surprise Saturday night debate with San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom. Not the real mayor, mind you, but Gavin in puppet form. (Kudos to those who created the puppet, though we would've have liked to have seen Newsom sporting a signature cold-blue tie. We digress.) It's a humorous bit, one that stretches on and......
