Biden V. Palin watch-along thread

Ooooooo Biden playing the personal story card. I like it. My story can beat your story.

Biden just nailed that whole “I understand what it’s like to be a single dad” thing.

I can’t be objective about Cheney as I think he is the most corrupt VP ever, but that sounds like a solid slam Biden got off.

I was explaining to someone today about how VPs get picked and they are normally compromises but that Cheney was actually in charge of committee to pick Bush’s running mate and he picked himself. The people I was explaining this to were shocked.
Maverick, Maverick, Maverick. I’m glad I am not drinking, I would be throwing up by now.

since we’re almost out of time, here’s my $.02

Palin did not make a complete ass out of herself. So she scores 1 point for rote memory recitation.

Biden did not score any of the several slam dunks that were open, so he loses 2 points.

This still leaves Biden up by about 10,000,000 points.
bottom line: Palin comes across as someone that I would not want to be my mom, and if she was my friend’s mom, we would spend our time hanging out at someone else’s house. Too often I can see the shrew peeking out from behind those glasses.

Biden comes across as someone who I would want for my father or grandfather. He is quiet, knowledgeable, reflective and genial. He would positively affect my life.

Joe understands.

Biden choking up: Ploy, or legit?

Did I miss it, or is there a “maverick” drinking game up yet?

“John McCain has been the consummate maverick. He’s taking shots left and right.” Him and everyone playing drinking games, I suppose…

God. It’s completely cynical, but that little choke up about his late wife and daughter and his two sons probably made the night.

And her response is completely inane.

Perfect.

Too bad I’m going to hell.

Did Biden just almost start to cry when he was talking about his family?

The maverick thing. Please stop with it. Consummate maverick just killed me.

“McCain is the man we need to leave” That was a great misspeak!

It may be the vodka talking, but pretend you had watched this 8 years ago and you wouldn’t believe your eyes:

What bizzaro universe do we live in that the old white guy is on the democratic side and the woman is on the republican side?

Ah, thank God; a direct response to this “maverick” bullshit.

How many effing times is she going to say “greedy and corrupt Wall Street”??

John McCain American Kamikaze!*

OMG she just dissed 6 years of Republican rule.

Well it certainly spiked the woman graph on CNN.

Who’s Lingle?

Nice response to the Maverick crap!
