I think she must have spent so much time studying and practicing on not fucking up that she kinda neglected selling mccain for president.

I have an eidetic memory. I recall all . One thing I've learned about fl is that you shouldn't count on them.Poseidon wrote:

Yes I've seen you repeat fl is blue over the last couple of days (lol). RCP is up to the minute and they take from a variety of polls. When they say Fl is blue I'll buy it. A 3 point difference or less is a toss up.Poseidon wrote:
And add in the fact that VA, NC, NV and FL are now blue...
VA and FL moreso than NC and NV though.
In it's current status it's a tossup, yes. It's not so much the fact that it's a tossup, but the fact that McCain has gone down substantially in states like that (and is still going down) what leads me to believe FL will be blue this November.
Well, Southern FL anyways.
Yeah, how about her reply when asked about disagreeing w/ McCain....."What do you expect? We're a bunch of mavericks."Hurricane2k9 wrote:

She didn't say that. That was just the start of her answer.ATG wrote:

All the lenders fault.

Do you really think she's never heard of Time, Newsweek, etc.? Come on...while I agree it came off horribly for her...I don't think she's THAT far out of touch but rather just vapor locked. Not the best trait to show and if you're on the liberal ticket....you've got to play that card. Same as the conservatives play Biden as arrogant and belligerent. He proved tonight that he can be very Presidential and I think she proved she's not a complete idiot. But both have a bit of it in them, make no mistake but they executed their plans well.Hurricane2k9 wrote:

Dont think Biden meant it to ever become a bloodbath, that could have hurt the dems more than the reps to make Palin a victim ...TrueMusou wrote:
Here's the jist of it, it wasn't a spectacular debate. Joe Biden went there to do what he wanted to do. That was sell Obama, and he did so by practically debating over Palin's head and went after McCain. The ONLY thing that Palin can get credit for is not falling on her face completely. However, if you look at the debate as a whole, Joe Biden won hands down. He held a much more professional, state's man composure. Palin looked WAY out of her league and what the hell was that part where she gave a shout out to a 3rd grade class? I think Biden had SEVERAL chances where he could have crushed Palin but failed to do so...Pity, cause it could have easily been a blood bath.
Don't play coy Kmarion. We all know which side is pushing the "maverick reformer" appellation.Kmarion wrote:

Edit: Just for you
Just for you.But the McCain campaign touted Palin, 44, who spent most of the debate looking straight into the camera as she spoke and occasionally winking, as "direct, forceful and a breath of fresh air," said communications director Jill Hazelbaker.
"Tonight, Governor Palin proved beyond any doubt that she is ready to lead as Vice President of the United States. She won this debate, putting Joe Biden on defence on energy, foreign policy, taxes and the definition of change," she said.
"The American people saw stark contrasts in style and worldview. They saw Joe Biden, a Washington insider and a 36-year Senator, and Governor Palin, a Washington outsider and a maverick reformer.”
I'm sure it would have hurt the Dems for making her a victim. If Palin had a Y chromosome instead, do you think Biden would have went for the jugular? (not trying to incite argument, just a question). I personally would have liked to see a blood bath, would have been entertaining.Varegg wrote:

That is to me why she succeeds. I am sick of my government being full of lawyers and corrupt politicians. She is neither. She was brought in as an outsider by McCain. If McCain dies we may have a person that expresses American veiws and acts upon our behalf. What a fucking concept.Braddock wrote:
Well I have to say Palin has not changed my opinion of her after her performance last night. Fair enough, she did not cry, she did not freeze up and she did not do anywhere near as bad as anyone expected but she still came across as a complete greenhorn... only a greenhorn who had been heavily briefed in the last couple of days.
Biden went pretty soft on her in my opinion, he came across as a very patriarchal figure because of the dynamic between the two and I have to say he seemed to come across as a pretty safe pair of hands too. He was much more rigorous in picking Palin up on points she was making, in comparison Palin was pretty poor and when she did succeed in picking Joe up on something she managed to come across as a little bitchy and acerbic (but that's neither here nor there really).
Basically Palin is an inexperienced, one-trick pony. She is on the ticket because she is a pretty, God fearing, small town, middle-class, hockey mom... that's all she's bringing to the table (in other words "fuck all").
