Pennsylvania Democratic Debate Tonight on ABC

If we include last Sunday's Compassion Forum, this will be the 22nd time Senators Obama and Clinton have squared off in a debate for the Democratic nomination. ABC is hosting tonight's 90 minute debate at the National Constitution Center--starting at 8 p.m.--in the "Virtue, Liberty and Independence" state.

No word yet if there's a drinking game--akin to Clinton's recent shot and a beer--for every reference of "out of touch," "elitist," "bitter," "win-at-all-costs," "kitchen sink strategy," "Bush Republican," "beer and guns," "chose my words badly," "Bosnian sniper fire," and "small town America."

Hillary vs Obama

FYI. There is additional pre-debate analysis by Carla Marinucci and Beth Fouhy as well as a breakdown of the Indiana and Pennsylvania primaries by Janet Hook.

This "shot and a beer" thing just might catch on and even spread to local politics.

Next time our amoral mayor runs for office his opponents may feel they need to match his "slap and a tickle" machismo bullspit just to stay in the game.

There is a photo of the mayor chugging one, but with Robert DeNito at Nobu. Not too populist, typical of all the liberal Dems. Hillary's at least trying to "fit in," before she gets back on her private jet and Chardonnay or a nice Pinot. Obama's got one chugging a pint -- he's more natural at basketball than bowling and a beer.
