2012 presidential debate schedule is released


Here's an exciting bit of news for all you political junkies out there: The Commission on Presidential Debates announced on Monday where the four debates will take place.

Be still my heart.

For the presidential debates, the three meetings will be in Colorado, New York and Florida. The vice presidential debate will take place in Kentucky.

As the New York Times reports:
The first presidential debate will be Oct. 3 at the University of Denver, followed by one on Oct. 16 at Hofstra University in Hempstead, N.Y. The final debate is scheduled for Oct. 22 at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida. The vice presidential debate is set for Oct. 11 at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky.

I am still having a very hard time imagining that the Republican nominee will be anyone but Mitt Romney. Democrats everywhere can certainly hope that some damn fool like Rick Perry or Herman Cain will be going up against President Obama. Even I don't think Republicans are that stupid, but stranger things have happened.

Hey, it's actually starting to get a little exciting, for those of us who get excited about stuff like this.
