Sixty or so members of the Drinking Liberally, Charlotte chapter along with various others converged last night to watch the much heralded debate.

Our expectations: a mixed bag, given the tumult surrounding McCain's fake suspension of his campaign.

Our hopes: that Obama would show that he is presidential and knowledgeable.

Our fears: McCain would defy logic and somehow pull out a win.

Our reality: Below the fold.

This diary does not contain links to any published reports. This diary will not explain how McCain and Palin are liars. (Although I wish the Obama team would create an add that shows a Palin lie followed by a black screen with the word Liar in either bold Red or White. Then a McCain lie video clip followed by the same Liar screen. Repeat until you run out of add time or lies).

This diary is about my frustration with the Republican party, the Media; both television and print, and polling.

I ran into a friend of mine tonight at a reception for Harvey Gantt and Mel Watt in Charlotte, NC. She is a community organizer with Working Families Win. During our brief conversation, she told me about about her recent trip to Alaska.

It turns out that there is about 1 meth house for every 100 residents in Wasilla. She is forwading additional details to me along with links to her source material. Once I get it I will update this diary.

My point with this diary is not that I want to stoop to Palin's level and launch attacks. But instead, I want to figure out how the mayor of a small town with a huge meth problem becomes governer. And why this part of the story is not yet being told.
