| Palin didn't answer at least 7-8 of the questions...instead saying "but first I'd like to go back to energy..blah blah blah" then repeating her talking points. It is obvious she didn't want to answer (or couldn't answer) some of the non-rehearsed questions thrown at her. |

To be honest, I really think it's a lot more than that this time. It's not just ulterior motives, it's genuine inadequacy - and far more blatant a case than even George W. Bush was (a true milestone).
She personifies the trend toward denial and against intellectualism, not qualities I'm looking for in a grocery bagger, much less a politician. |

| quote: | Early Snap Polls: Biden Won Handily
By Greg Sargent - October 2, 2008, 11:14PM
The first round of snap polls give the debate to Joe Biden, by sizable margins.
CBS polled 473 uncommitted debate-watchers, and found that 46% say Biden won, 21% say Palin won, and 33% say it was a tie.
While both candidates saw their images improve, 98% saw Biden as "knowledgeable" after the debate, while only 66% saw Palin as knowledgeable, an admittedly high number, given what folks thought of her before tonight.
Meanwhile, CNN's poll of debate-watchers found that far more thought Biden did the best job in the debate (51%) than Palin did (36%).
And here's a really key number from CNN. While a startling 84% said Palin did better than expected, it still wasn't enough for her to clear her basic hurdle tonight: Only 46% said she's qualified to serve as president, up only four points from before the debate. And a clear majority, 53%, say she is not qualified.
It's not wise to put too much stock in snap polls. But if this bears out, it'll confirm our earlier argument: Palin's disastrous interviews raised expectations for her tonight, in the sense that the pressure on her to prove she's ready for the job was even higher than it otherwise might have been. And she didn't prove it, at least according to these early numbers. |

I do hope that IF McCain wins - he lives long enough to be president all 4 years. She'll make a great - hot looking assistant.
God forbid something happens.. I just hope she's been around his shoes long enough to do the right things.
I think when my 80 year old boss dies - I could totally take over his business and kick ass in it too. Something I wouldn't say 1year+ ago. Especially since it's just him and I in the company. :stongue: |

Does anyone else notice how much Joe Biden's voice sounds like George Carlin's? :p |

Outstanding, not only is it hilarious because of the Palin quotes, but it really goes a long way towards proving you could be the next deadmau5 with little to no effort.
Armin would play it, guaranteed. :stongue: |
