My high school speech and debate coach..

would throttle Sarah Palin.

She has nothing! Every answer wanders off into a nightmarish melange of soundbites, half-formed sentences, and odd attempts at being folksy.

Biden, on the other hand, looks and sounds like someone who could step into the Presidency.

Seriously, if I was facing Sarah in LD, I'd leave her broken on the floor. and still be ready to cruise the El Camino and go to Rocky.

OMG, she just said that Darfur should be handled by the local authorities.

Note to Sarah Palin.

The word is pronounced...

NUCLEAR

why not?

no less a sage than Jimmy Carter said that there was no genocide occurring there, so what pressing national interest do we have in the region?

you and your coach are missing the point:

she's not talking to you, or interested in your grading of her performance.

she's talking to Middle America, which, as much as i like you, you have to admit you have few, if any, points of congruity.

ergo, your judgment in the matter, albeit valid in it's own sense, is utterly meaningless in the larger picture. y'all have had 5 weeks to dredge up every lie, bullshit story and flat out slander you could (since there were no valid complaints) to drag her down and make her go away, and yet, when all is said and done, she's still the bright, vivacious and well spoken woman that scares the beejeebers out of all y'all.

it's kinda like the boogie(wo)man showed up for Halloween early.

"you better wash your hands and set the table or Sarah will get you....."

Red, I am middle America. I'm a blue collar, pick-up truck driving, baseball loving veteran.

I'm also someone who wants the Vice President of the United States to be able to answer a question. Well spoken? Don't make me laugh.

You're intelligent, informed, and back up opinions with facts. You are NOT "Middle America" as I know it, or as the Republicans count on it being.

then you both ruled out Joey Botox
