JenVMember“A team of mavericks, we’re not going to agree on everything,”
…is anyone else thinking A-Team?

HunterGParticipantGood lord…Maverick…maverick…maverick.
What really does that mean, sure it sounds good, but what exactly is behind it?
And where are the hard questions? Abortion? Um….Women’s rights?
Memorizing and reading note cards wont win an election.
It is ironic that a woman could be so demeaning to women.

JenVMemberthis made me LOL, from the Fark.com forum: “She’s all over the place! She dodges questions to talk about energy, poorly! One response she’s the Party Of Personal Responsibility, and the next, she’s Party Of Goin’ Git Those Wall Street East Coast *spit* Sharks Who Screwed Normal Folk! She’s hardly had a coherent train of thought all night. And she just looks so PLEASED with herself while she does it! It’s a little sad.”

CaitParticipantI didn’t expect that Joe Biden to be SO likeable!

HunterGParticipantMy husband was watching some website where it monitored the women vs. the men’s reactions to Gov. Palin’s responses and good ol Joey really appealed to the women.

TheHouseMemberBoth VP candidates displayed balls tonight, but I predict an uptick in McCain numbers in the next week. Palin held her ground with one of the most senior politicians in our country.
Biden should have made her look silly, but she stood her ground.
You better start getting used to her voice.

JiggersMemberPalin was effing awesome!! She held her own and more so. Too bad she’s not Obama’s V.P. or it would be a shoe in. She’s still looking pretty hot too. She came on strong near the end. I can’t believe she was a runner up for Miss Alaska. I wished she would have torn up Biden. Biden went on too long at times. She has some hot legs I noticed…lol

JanSParticipantI wonder sometimes if some of these pundits are watching the same thing I am. Pat Buchanan (yeah, I know) says that she was wonderful, that she won this debate hands down, that Joe Biden was boring. I didn’t see any need for Gwen Ifill, as far as Palin is concerned…she simply went about her agenda, and what she had practiced…at least, that’s what it seemed to me.
When she said she had only been at this for 5 weeks, so……….that was a defining moment for me..she’s not ready.
OK…let’s hear from the more conservative members now. Pat Buchanan wants to father her future kids, how about the rest of you? ;-)

JanSParticipanthehehe…House…the voice is like my old home ec teacher’s fingernails on the blackboard…but, then, John McCain’s voice doesn’t exactly turn me on either.
jiggers…there are a lot of good looking women in the world…I certainly hope that’s not what you base your vote on.

CountingCoupMemberBiden Won,
Palin was elusive, unfocused on the questions, and clearly out of her league for a Vice Presidential position.
She didn’t feel like answering the moderators questions or even specific Biden responses that were posed and decided to instead speak to the American people…
Well, this American clearly sees that her political knowledge on issues outside of her prepared rhetoric and John McCain
“Rah Rah” is that of a small town mayor but not one who is asking to be in the 2nd highest position in the US.
The fact checks tomorrow will be interesting…
Biden won, hands down!
And by the way, I believe he was 100% on! I wish he would have indirectly brought more attention to the Supreme court which will be greatly affected by the next administration.

JanSParticipantso..someone refresh my memory…when is the next Prez debate? Next week?
October 3, 2008 at 3:00 am #641808
guidosmomMemberDid you guys hear her call Biden O’Biden? LOL. For any of you who haven’t watched it yet (or are going to watch it again). Here is a Palin bingo card for you:
BINGO!

AnonymousInactiveShe never answered the actual question being asked. She gave 2 minute mini-speeches saying whatever she felt like. I’m sure her fans are ecstatic because she sounded like she knew what she was talking about. But what exactly is that? I can’t think of anything she stands for other than “we’re gonna fix it”.
October 3, 2008 at 3:07 am #641811
JanSParticipantThanks, Jen..
guidosmom..I won bingo a few times.
did anyone notice that she got the name of the commander in Afghanistan wrong, and that she got the # of troops in Iraq wrong…
October 3, 2008 at 3:08 am #641812
acemotelParticipantha ha ha someone wants to chose VP based on looks. You deserve what you get, then.
Palin’s favorite word: also.
October 3, 2008 at 3:08 am #641813
wsteeMemberOh, I can’t believe I am even going to comment, being one of seven Republicans in Seattle proper… I think she rocked it. I don’t agree with every item on the Repub ticket but I am also probably more liberal than most Dems on issues like gay marriage or abortion. And I think Mr. Biden did well. But he should have slammed her and he didn’t. I love both their patriotism. I appreciate the sacrifice both families are making for our country. I look forward to seeing how our country turns with our new president, whoever it may be.
Oh. And she did overuse maverick. For sure. You betcha. Gosh darn.
October 3, 2008 at 3:10 am #641814
villagegreenMemberI love it how she says ‘too’ and ‘also’ in almost every sentence. I give her credit that she was able to complete the debate without answering a single question. She did the best she could, but it wasn’t even close to good enough.
Any uptick in McCain’s numbers due to this pathetic performance will immediate vanish after next Tuesday. Luckily she’ll be locked up by the McCain camp again so we won’t have to listen to her voice much – except for Tina Fey.

JanSParticipantOctober 3, 2008 at 3:17 am #641816
JanSParticipantdid anyone see the Tina Fey ’08 sign? :)
October 3, 2008 at 3:23 am #641817
CaitParticipantI did! I thought I was watching her a few times tonight. “Say it ain’t so Joe!” More than the debate tonight I am now looking forward to SNL… The hits just keep on comin’.

AnonymousInactiveJan, I haven’t seen that, but for a couple weeks now the phone pole on my street has a Palin for President poster, with a picture of Michael Palin (Monty Python) in a priest outfit.
Makes me laugh every time I see it.
October 3, 2008 at 3:27 am #641819
AnonymousInactiveConvince yourselves to the contrary all you want….. she did great.
Wasn’t everybody talking about her being destroyed by Biden? Doesn’t look like it quite happened, does it?
October 3, 2008 at 3:30 am #641820
MrJTMemberShe did great doing what showing her “Maverick” side and not ansering a question posed to her? OH YEA, she talked about energy. And smiled a lot.
