Joe Biden/Sarah Palin Debate Conversation Thread

[jillian]

He is, you're right. But so is Palin.

I don't think she's connecting here... she's holding her own, but I don't see that...

And Biden's eviscerating her right now on the whole "maverick" thing.

 

[clane1987]

Biden's comment on McCains "maverick" personality was gold! He had some great facts to go with it!

 

[MichaelCollins]

BIden said he has been in public office for 35 years...and

"hasn't changed in that time".

Is that a positive quality... not to have changed in 35 years?

Joe's story is touching....but no one who has been in Washington for as long as he has is "one of us" anymore, I'm sorry.

He's been a US Senator since he was 29 years old...he's as out-of-touch with mainstream America as they come.

I'm not saying that Sarah the Moosehunter is down-to-earth and one of us...but Biden certainly isn't either.

Sarah Palin's family makes almost as much as his family does a year.

And nice job by Biden on dispelling the Maverick Myth.

 

[Gem]

Yeah...the Democrats were all about McCain the Maverick...until they realized they had to run against him.

 

[MichaelCollins]

If the hillbilly says MAVERICK again... i am going to shove James Garner up her ....

Sarah the moosehunter is so very down to earth.

Because having a tanning bed in your home and owning a Piper PA-18 is middle class.

Biden is a career politician. He's a lawyer turned politician who cares only about politics. Palin was a stay-at-home mom who didn't like where her city was headed and stepped up to change that. She propelled herself into the governor's mansion because of her passion for change in the state of Alaska. I'm more like her than I'll ever be like Biden.

I had 'change' for a drinking word tonight.

I am so drunk!

The girl who had 'Maverick' just passed out...

Yeah, shes a governor and her husband works fairly dangerous jobs. So what?
As I said, I'm not saying that shes Mrs. Main Street...but to say that a man who has spent the vast majority of his entire career as a Washington insider is the height of naivete...no one, on the left or right who is in the Senate for that long is "one of the people..." Its not what our founding fathers intended...and its not what we should have happen...but thats a discussion for another time.

You're not going to do anything.

no. it's because he ISN'T one anymore. He was 8 years ago, though. i don't think he's ever been the same since he got push-polled by Karl Rove.

Tanning beds can run as low as $1,500. Yes, I'd definitely say that's middle class.

I have had the pleasure of owning two airplanes. Bought and paid for with middle class wages. What's yer point?

LMAO

I had Ahmadinejad.... and i was so sober until Palin learnt his name.... then i had to drink 48 double vodkas in 11 and half seconds.

 

[eots]

OK so clearly Obama has the election in the bag...so at least we only have to worry about global socialism..and don't have to fear the crazy lady and the old midget ushering in the armageddon..that's something...,the bright side if you will

 

[clane1987]

She's happy she got embarrassed? Strange indeed!

Might not want to bring Ben Franklin into that discussion at a later point.
