In case anyone missed it, here is the Full Vice Presidential Debate.

I think my feelings on the debate were best expressed by the analyst I read this morning who said that while Palin played an excellent AA game, Biden played a great big league game.

There's this function on Twitter where you can see what people are saying about the elections. It's a constant scroll of what people are saying about the debates last night. It's fascinating watching what people are tweeting about.
A lot of it is funny. There are a lot of people in this country with a sense of humor. That makes me happy.

FYI, I believe the "Disney Movie" joke came from Matt Damon, and now it's the go-to line. He may just be a Hollywood blowhard, but he's right on the money here.

Webster may allow "nu-cu-lar" but I'm with Heidi- I can't respect someone when I hear that level of wrong fall from their lips.

I don't like Palin's mannerisms, but it's not the end of the world. I just wish she'd actually *say* something when she says something.

We're going to be affected by the substance of whoever we elect in November, but the campaign is being waged largely on style at this point and that bothers me immensely.

I'm sure she's a nice lady, but I really don't want her in the VP seat. I was looking for something to like about her, in case we get stuck with her, and I can't find anything.

I think she's pretty.

For what that's worth.

We could have a "pretty" president. Wouldn't that be swell?

You betcha!

You know, I was expecting her to say "boy howdy" at some point in the debate. She didn't. Thank goodness.

WHAT A *bleep* INSULT TO WOMEN!!!! I'M *bleep* INSULTED!!! (I'm a man; a father who never lets his teenage daughter get away with behaving like that to get attention and what she wants. Great role model Sara Six-Pack.)
Why didn't she just hike her skirt up a couple of more inches along with her winking at the camera? She displayed all the worst female stereotypes with regard to affecting male attraction. She was behaving like she just got pulled over by a cop and was trying to use the suggestion of sex to get out of a ticket.
"Can I call you Joe?" Joe Biden is U.S. Senator who has served this country for 36 years; you uneducated small minded snotty prom queen!!!
