C-SPAN will air the debate between Bob Barr, Ralph Nader and Chuck Baldwin tonight at 7pm and again on Sunday, November 2nd, at 10:30am.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer was on hand to cover the debate:

The candidates repeatedly veered from the debate&#8217;s central theme - &#8220;The Economy: Where Do We Go from Here?&#8221; - to take swipes at the Democratic and Republican parties and their presidential nominees, Democratic Sen. Barack Obama and Republican Sen. John McCain.

Barr called Obama and McCain indistinguishable on policy positions. The former Republican congressman from Georgia accused them of practicing &#8220;sound-bite politics&#8221; and showing &#8220;no leadership whatsoever.&#8221;
[...]
Barr found it curious that the Department of Justice has been absent during the nation&#8217;s financial crisis.

&#8220;There have been no prosecutions, not even apparently a significant investigation of what appears to be historic fraud,&#8221; Barr said.
