Politics overload.

So far this week I have been out canvassing twice, went to the candidates’ debate on Wednesday, tonight and Saturday I am out canvassing again, then delivering leaflets on Sunday.

Last night was a bit different; I watched the “Leaders debate” on TV and used Tweetdeck to follow the #leadersdebate stream.

Both the debate and the stream were very lively. Twitter has yet to be been colonised by party hacks (with the possible exception of me). It was refreshing, genuine and amusing. There were lots of sharp comments and observations.

The main complaint was that with so many tweets being sent, Tweetdeck was not updating fast enough.

The big news is that Nick Clegg didn’t fall on his face, so the momentum he generated in the first debate will continue. I had to get this song in at some point. This version is a cover by Chelsea Staub and Jake Johnson.

Not the orriginal, but that is the whole point really.
