The Nose: Presidential Debates, Death Of Print, & Puppies!

http://cptv.vo.llnwd.net/o2/ypmwebcontent/Commodore%20Skahill/Colin%20McEnroe%20Show%2010-19-2012.mp3

Here are a few things that happened this week in the presidential campaign.

Binders full of women went viral. Bruce Springsteen endorsed Obama and went on the road for him. Hillary Clinton made a pretty emphatic case for the idea that she will never run for anything again. Candy Crowley had such a moment that there may, henceforth, be something called a Candy Crowley moment. 
 
Meanwhile, the polls are so screwy that even Nate Silver, who knows everything, seems to have moments of uncertainty.
 
On the Nose this week, we'll run through this week's peaks and valleys. In our second segment, we'll talk about the death knells for and persistence of paper. Is there some reading or record-keeping activity you refuse to transfer to the digital world?
