As we predicted, we didn't make it home in time to watch tonight's Boston mayoral debate on Channel 25, which was helpfully scheduled for rush hour. Luckily for us, Adam Gaffin was available to liveblog it. The highlights? Michael Flaherty doesn't know how much it costs to ride the T. Yoon explained why there are four candidates in the race. The moderator asked Menino if he thought he spoke like an imbecile. McCrea yelled a lot. [Universal Hub]

Fox Channel 25 will be broadcasting a Boston mayoral debate this afternoon beginning at 5 p.m., when many still-employed Bostonians will be at work or commuting home from it. We won't be live blogging this one because they don't have televisions on the T, so you're on your own. We guess that we'll read about the debate on some Web site or another after we get home, when Fox will be showing Malcolm in the Middle and Simpsons re-runs.

The Globe covers last night's "candidates forum," an untelevised debate between the four mayoral candidates held at the Reggie Lewis Center in Roxbury. Tempers flared as the candidates tore into Menino over issues including the city's minority hiring record, housing spending, and the Boston school system. [Globe]

"Power," "Corruption," "Lies." Throw in "Blue Monday," and the Boston mayoral debate could have been a New Order album. So, you watched the debate on WBZTV, or, at the very least, you read our marginally coherent live blog. What did you think? Who won the debate?

The Boston mayoral debate, which was postponed earlier today, has been rescheduled for next Wednesday, September 2, according to Sam Yoon spokesman Jordan Newman.
