Feed from CBS.

Don't underestimate the level of interest in American politics overseas.

Ex-pats around the world will be watching, I'm sure.

And I posted a variety of major outlets airing the debate live for those that don't have cable - or even TV - or prefer to watch online. And I know that DUers have preferences. I'm just wondering how many of these outlets would be available overseas?

3. Your C-SPAN links should be accessible to anyone around the world with an internet connection.

Works for me anyway.

Plus whatever local FTA stations take the CBS feed.

Showing here on 4 different FTA stations.

4. Thank you for the information - I know that a lot of DUers prefer C-SPAN, so posted that one first.

And I wasn't sure what was available outside the U.S. - I know that a fellow DUer in Canada couldn't see the videos I posted from Saturday Night Live.

But there are ways around that. (VPN)

A good debate though, shows what a political debate can be like if Trump's insanity isn't involved.

First chance for people to see Coach in action, and he came over very well.

Vance . . . yeah, nah.
Seemed to be on the defensive most of the time.
Lost me when he hinted Trump wanted to continue the good works from his presidency.

Some fact checking happened.

And it did send me over the edge tonight that Vance lied so often - Walz couldn't even get him to admit that TFG lost the last election!
