Please, god, let this footage be released BEFORE the election.
This just shows that ratings for a television station is more important than informing the American public about how stupid a potential VP of the entire country is. There is absolutely no integrity in journalism any more.
got that right. there are still these anchors on CNN who claim she’ll be a formidible debater, because she did well in debates in alaska. huh? there are 49 more states and a big bad world out there which is gonna take a whole lotta brain power and analysis from our future VP. (hey, maybe she doesn’t know there’s 50 states in the union)?
It was bad enough knowing that she couldn’t name a supreme court decision besides Roe V Wade but knowing she graduated with a Poli Sci degree [pirate] disgusting!!! boy that’s a negative commercial for her college if I’ve ever heard one!
Late,

didn’t she go to three or four colleges? bet the first couple of schools are breathing sighs of relief right about now…
She got big cheers at the RNC for reading a script written by experienced campaign writers, then laid an egg in her 1-on-1 with that overpaid tool of a telepromteress Katie Couric. Not surprised at all. Wait, what am I doing in a political thread? Ugh.

Someone who says she has knowledge on foreign affairs because she can see another country from hers should… well, stick to the beauty pageants I guess.
Why? She fails at those, too.
after further expert analysis (by yours truly), all this talk about biden treating her with kid gloves is bullshit. he didn’t do that with hillary nor did she do that with biden. what’s the difference with miss moose hunter? NOTHING. i say biden don’t bite your tongue, be polite, and then go in for the kill.
who knows how stupid this will be. but i’ll be watching, and hoping palin makes no sense at all beyond the talking points.

Supposedly she is a bad ass debater and analysts think that Palin will put Biden on the defensive quickly so he’s defending his record rather than promoting his talking points, which is supposed to give her the win…I can tell you right now how it going to end, Repubs will be bragging about how Palin knocked biden out and DEms will be talking about how Biden knocked her out tactfully!

she did well. Crazy seeing her the next Vice & probably soon to be President.
she did well.
I wouldn’t go that far but perhaps i’m biased

“wir sind die roboter.”
I think Palin did as well as could be expected. At the end of the day it still felt like a really good (best in the school) high school debate student going up against a well-seasoned trial lawyer.
i saw my favorite checkout clerk today in the grocery store who is a black lady who’s in her sixties probably. she said she was almost crying when biden started talking about his family and the loss of his wife and daughter.
i kept my mouth to a minimum b/c it was clear that this lady had paid attention to the debate and she thought biden did his job.
Here’s a great piece of Sarah Palin inspired poetry that I found in the comments section of www.edentropy.blogspot.com
Oh Sarah Palin,
Beautiful as a garbage dump in full bloom
More wise than the wisest of Orchids
You have taken my intestines
and wrapped them around your neck like a boa
I would hit you like a limited edition Pog
You are the only one for a nebulous blob like me
Sarah Palin

Harris makes some important points about Republicans in general: the shunning of anyone who has a whiff of intelligence about them or the “stubborness of the ignorant” as I call it.
