You Never Forget Your First Debate, but in case you do forget it, or like, never watched it in the first place, here are the undebatably top 10 best moments from Friday Night's debate.

1. Host Jim Lehrer tries to provoke a Presidential Man Love/Hate Cat Fight:  "talk to each other about it. We've got five minutes. We can negotiate a deal right here.... " Wow! That would be the first time ever presidential nominees "sealed the deal" live and on television.
Lehrer will not let up. Turns into that persistent fratboy intent on provoking catfight long after his fellow brohams are ready to go to the next bar: "Say it directly to him.... Say it directly to him..."
2. Video cameras and television screens clearly part of vast left conspiracy: show liberal bias towards Obama. McCain made to look pasty and nervous, Obama made to look glowing and dapper.
Obama outs himself as the true swinging liberal that he is by using word "orgy."
McCain outs himself opponent of ERs for Veterans. The senator is so opposed to  funding  ER's, that he refuses to pronounce the "er" in veterans, whom he insists on calling vetrans.

This is another photo of me with Rudy Giuliani taken from the same run-in we had in Denver. I was lucky enough to see him in both Colorado AND St. Paul. I guess we're really in synch. I like to squint my eyes until Rudy's face turns into Obama. I'd much rather bask in the sunshine of change and hope with Barack than bask in the radioactivity of Rudy. Oh well. I'll let you know what happened in St Paul with Rudy soon enough. But for now, be warned...
