Here We Go Again

The mayoral candidates get together tonight for another debate, the last throwdown before next Tuesday's election.

This one isn't on live TV, which might mean a few things:

First, we'll be covering it live again tonight at the Fitchburg Pride website. We'll let you know when we're up and humming. We'll try to stay away from a dry re-telling of comments -- we expect they'll be similar to last week -- and try to do a better job capturing mood and atmospher. Should be fun. Another 3,100 words anyone?

Second, with the TV cameras gone, will these guys loosen up a little bit? There were a lot of nerves last Thursday. With the second go-around and no cameras, perhaps there will be some more energy. We'll see.

Finally, word is the candidates will get the chance to ask each other a question. I like that. Gee, who will Donnelly ask a question of?

We expect minimal changes in answers and messages tonight, so we'll be looking for tone and, well, performance. So, join us live on the internets a little before 7, and for Pete's sake, enjoy it.
