Another, Less Twitterlicious Debate on Wednesday

Who'll take Mike's spot?

​Earlier, we mentioned a gubernatorial debate happening in Irvine on Wednesday evening, in which members of the public were invited to tweet in questions.

But before that debate, there'll be a "candidate forum" in Orange, featuring all five contenders in the Assembly District 72 race to replace Mike "The Dripper" Duvall.

It's being sponsored in part by the Orange Chamber of Commerce, and tickets to the luncheon start at $45. But that's a small price to pay for getting a chance to see Linda Ackerman and Chris Norby mud wrestle in person. On second thought, maybe not. The image nearly made me lose my breakfast.

It'll be at the Doubletree Hotel in Orange from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Details here.
