In a lot of ways, tonight’s Republican debate looks like the lowest-stakes of the three debates so far. We know what the candidates all look like in a debate setting; we know which lanes they’re each slotted into. And while there will be ten candidates on stage, the field really isn’t that big anymore-a few of these are zombie campaigns, just waiting for the candidate to put them down.

And on top of everything else, the show is up against the World Series. So reasonable Americans should be watching baseball instead of politics.
