Eric Alterman Arrested at Debate

I’m amused to learn that The Nation columnist Eric Alterman got arrested at tonight’s Democratic debate after he crashed a closed party and raided the open bar. Considering how boring these early crowded debates are I can’t say I blame Alterman. But, still, I would have stayed home and watched The Sopranos. Bobby got killed, Silvio’s in a coma. Tony’s in hiding. Good stuff. Speaking of which, my local news reported that a man woke up today after a 19 year coma. I guess that means he missed the end of Reagan’s presidency and every thing since. Someone is going to have to explain this current President to him. I have a feeling that he won’t be pleased.
