Vice Presidential Debate

Dude. Wow. I completely and totally heart Palin. She's totally my new hero :) She's brilliant! I love how she's totally grinning like she's got this ace up her sleeve. Biden's sitting here going "Uh, no, I didn't vote for that..." and she says "Um... yeah you did, I saw that debate."

And I loved that bit with her going "Uh... yeah, I'm just an idiot, I don't know how things work in Washington... so I don't understand how you can be completely for the war, and then as soon as this race starts, you change your mind." Good shot, girl.

I think she's a Mandalorian in disguise.

You know, I haven't watched her in action before. I really haven't! Everyone's been talking about her, how great her speech was at the RepCon (my new name for Republican Convention), and I didn't see any of it, because I was watching House. But I see why everyone is going nuts about Palin, now! I think she rocks. I can see how she'd completely frazzle the Democrats though. Wow, they must HATE her. That makes me like her even more :)

Ooh, she's got the people laughing, now... that's always a good sign. She's even got Biden laughing! I like it when they can laugh at stuff and they're not right at each other's throats.

Ooh! Nice callback to the founding fathers. I like it when people pay attention to where we come from, not just where we're gonig.

Of course he's the most dangerous Vice President we've had. He shot someone.

Experience.... discipline.... experience.... discipline. Sorry, but I'm going with the soccer mom! Discipline with no experience can work out just fine. Experience with no discipline? I think I've seen that episode of 24... it doesn't turn out well for the VP.

Was that a callback to Reagan? Oh, the Liberals will like that one...

I like that she keeps up on McCain, too. She's actually standing behind him. Biden is kinda... ME ME ME ME ME! Obama chose ME! 'cause I'M awesome!

Now, how come Biden's sitting here going "McCain's an idiot. He's stupid. He voted for this and against that and blah blah blah..." but Palin is totally... she's not bashing Obama. She's just calling out Biden's bluffs.

Not going to question other people's motives? Stupid move. Sorry, but to quote Karen Traviss quoting EA Games... "Challenge everything." Examine people's motives. Find out why they're doing what they're doing. Healthy caution, padawan... 100 journo points.

Closing statements! Ooh. She rocks a lot. I like average. I'm average :) OH. I like that "we're blessed" and "I'm proud to be American" thing. People don't do that anymore.

And from Biden... top that. It IS the most important election I've ever voted in. I've never voted. I hate CEOs. Ooh. Mentioning the troopers. That's a good shot. He's going after the average American again. Let's see how many times we can say God. That'll earn votes. I do like that bit about God bless the troops as well, but it seemed kinda... slimy. I mean, not like "God bless our troops", more like "Vote for me because I can say 'God' and 'Troops'."

Oh, and by the way. I nearly deleted that WHOLE blog because I got distracted by 24. I went to Fox.com to check out when 24 will be on, but I forgot to publish my blog. Then I closed the tab. Crap. So, I'd like to thank Firefox for the "Recently closed tabs" feature, and Blogger for the "Autosave" feature. You saved my blog. I thank you.
