My favorite (off-topic) quote of the day comes from a Wonkette roundup of candidate news:

Sharpton: Scores major points for disabusing Brokaw of the notion that the war on terrorism is being conducted against a bunch of black men in bow ties: "I assume when you say 'the Nation of Islam' you're talking about Islamic nations."

Could that have actually happened? Seems almost too funny to be true. But, thanks to the Washington Post's handy debate transcript, you can see for yourself.
