* The embedded video below will go live tonight at 7 o’clock when 12th Congressional District candidates Bill Enyart (D-Belleville), Jason Plummber (R-Fairview Heights), and Paula Bradshaw (Green Party-Carbondale) square off for their second debate. Click here or here if there’s a problem with the video…
* Plummer’s staff will be live-Tweeting the event here. The Belleville News Democrat says they’ll be doing some live stuff as well.
You can watch the first debate the candidates had by clicking here.
I have to be away tonight, so I won’t get to watch it. Be helpful, if you can, and live-blog it in comments.
(I think I just destroyed any plans Oswego Willy might have had for the evening.)
*** UPDATE *** The Southern Illinoisan Scribble-Lived the event. You can read the play-by-play by clicking here.

Why …Why …WHY?!?!?!?
There goes my Giants-Panthers Game plans …
The re-tweeting of the Plummer Staff … question … who will be more confusing, Plummer’s answers … or Plummer’s Staff explaining Plummer’s answwers?
Something to consider …
1 for every Nancy Pelosi reference
1 for every “Business Experience”
1 for every “liberal”
1 for “tax” reference
Just sayin’, if you are going to watch, you can help your local economy by purchasing something to …”get ya thru”

Wonder if they will discuss the really important issue, i.e. Kenny Williams kicked upstairs.
No, they will probably just talk about the economy.

Fortunately JP is only able to speak in 140 character phrases, so they should be verbatim.

Plummer’s Opening Remark …
“Uh, first … Go Navy, beat Army …”

Cards already won so a lot of folks will have a lot of time to see Jason Romney-Plummer in full expose. Should be a laugh riot

plummer reminds me of augustus galoop-the german from willy wonka and the chocolate factory. Also sounds like a high school debater.

Has anyone been following the debate?

Jason has looked a lil
whine-y” …

Closing for Plummer was full of talking points, and not much more. Kinda felt he felt unsure, but lots of “Southern Illinois, Southern Illinois, and Southern Illinois”.
Dunno if he got many independents. Lots or Red Meat… missed an opportunity to grow.

Enyart - Quicker on his feet on his feet and combatitive than he was before. Got off a few haymakers.
Plummer - Mostly passionless GOP talking points. Boilerplate combat against Obama, Quinn, Pelosi.
Bradshaw - Good for comic relief, at least when they remembered to include her.
