Debate tonight

she did well. I agree…probably even tonight. Crazy to think she will be our vice and soon to be President.

Thanks, Nostradamus!

maverick…maverick…surge…drill…maverick…surge…surge…drill…surge… that was the gist of Palin’s points. That she managed to put soccer mom into the first answer was predictably sad.

i watched the entire “debate” which for me was not a debate, but an exercise in restraint. they both did what they were coached to do. palin threw out a lot of facts. biden did as well, only once going into the territory of how the senate works (and i was too tired to write it down). but anyway, all in all i think biden was the more prepared to analyze and respond from a well informed knowledge of history. palin kept going back to her idea of energy policy. non sequiter gets a new pair of eyeglasses on half the responses she made.
i was glad biden countered all her family this family that shit with his own story of being a single dad after his first wife and daughter died. that will win him points with a lot of people who are church-goers.
i think biden was the winner in this, altho palin proved to her party she could stand up and recite the lines.
and i think a lot of people were cringing with palin’s folksy language and the shout out to the third graders. WTF? go back to being a member of the PTA.

re: ed.'s points

I’m glad someone else sees all this as I tend to. Puppets.

I heard she made a few remarks of ‘hockey moms’ and ‘joe six packs’ and the like.

bah. she’s still going something hot about her.

double bah. It’s Friday and I need to leave work soon…
