Leigh Hornbeck, of the Times Union, was rightly complaining that watching on the TV is like watching it on TV is like watching it at home. BUT, I don't have a TV at home, so for me, this is a treat!

A funny feature of this debate is a "red card," which either candidate can hold up at any time, and it allows them to interject a 90-second rebuttal at any time. Tedisco was the first to pull his, and used the time to point out that Murphy was dodging the issue of whether or not he knowingly supported a bill that allowed AIG bonuses, etc..
