Poll: Will You Watch Tomorrow Night's Mayoral Debates?

Despite the sweet t-shirts, YouTube channels, rock band endorsements, and shiny new presents from the city, the 2009 Boston mayoral race has been kind of a snoozer. Sure, Menino's opponents have dogged his record on development, education, and crime, painting him as a dictatorial autocrat with his hands on every municipal project. But, when you open up the dictionary to "Mayor of Boston," the entry reads "dictatorial autocrat with his hands on every municipal project." Menino's most polemical opponent, the South End developer Kevin McCrea hasn't gotten much traction outside of the Boston wonk corner of the internet.

But, as Adrian Walker opines today, the debates might change the tenor of the campaign, giving Menino's opponents a choice opportunity to tear down the noted hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobe. But, will you—or anybody—watch the debates? Let us know. The show gets started at 7 p.m. on WBZTV.
