Forums - General Discussion - The Palin/Biden Debate Thread!

Palin isn't doing that badly. Biden is definitely a better speaker but Palin is pretty damned good at eyeballing the camera and convincing you that she has a clue what's going on - at least on a superficial level.

Yeah, Palin is doing a good job, dodging too many questions for my liking, but doing fine.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Shes dodging, shes hot but shes dodging



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

She is dodging many of these questions. BTW, Biden is really hitting his stride during the foreign policy bits.

She just got a good bitch slap in on Biden with that Washington politics line. Still, overall I think Joe is "winning". Though Palin is probably inspiring some confidence by keeping it close.

She should have pressed Biden harder on his Iraq war points. He was starting to look like a real ass with his double-talk.
