The countdown is on, as chaos reigns throughout the financial markets and the nation awaits the third and final presidential debate. I'm here on Long Island where thousands of reporters have descended upon Hofstra University where Obama and McCain go head-to-head tonight.
The massive sell off on wall street today serves up plenty of reason to target the economy in the debate tonight. But don't forget the story - behind the story. It's not just about the economy, it's about jobs, and how we're going to juggle excelling at work while taking care of our families.
Tonight I'm watching for Obama and McCain to give more attention to the issues associated with working families. There are plenty of other bloggers, writers and bi-partisan organizations watching through the work life lens tonight. Here are some links to check out, if your vote is riding on what the candidates have to say on the current state of our working and living experience in America.
