Presidential Debate Tonight in Nashville!

First it was ESPN CollegeDay on Saturday, and now Nashville is hosting the presidential debate tonight. Belmont College's Curb Center is beautiful with its red, white, and blue drapes and special floodlights. What a boon for Belmont University and Nashville! When I went home today for lunch, I got caught in traffic that was stopped for the Obama motorcade. I sat in my car for a good 20 minutes and thought about turning around and finding another way to work. But the excitement grabbed me, and I stayed. Soon, the motorcade came by with all of the police escorts. There was a string of SUVs, a small bus, and a big bus, and you could not tell had Obama in it. It almost brought tears to my eyes. I thought--Obama is a celebrity! But that is a good thing. MSNBC is broadcasting all of its shows today and tonight from Belmont. It has been raining off and on all day, so I hope it holds off for the rest of the night.
