VEEP Debate
« on: October 02, 2008, 10:46:19 PM »
Well, overall I would say she did slightly better than he, but neither one is any better than their partners....none of which are fit to run this country!

Didn't watch it.  Not a dime's worth of difference between the two sides of the duopolies coin.

I only watched it to find out more about her. Other than the night she was nominated for VP, I haven't watched BS election coverage since the railroading of RP was completed.

She didn't seem to answer the questions, or if she did, she missed their point. Her answer about Cheney's claim to sovereignity as VP was wayward at best, while Biden nailed it. (He's evil. Evil, I tell you! EEEEVVVIIIIILLLL!) She seemed to have a limited range of knowledge in far too many areas that somebody who would be in her position should possess of at the deepest level. Any time she seemed to be out of her depth, she'd return to some other point rather than answer the question. I felt she was very evasive in many areas.
As far as debates go, both of them were well behaved and did not attack even though there were many instances when they could have.  Very civil overall, I felt.

She does have personality and a nice homespun charm. But then so does Bush.

That's politicians for you! The way you can tell when they're lying is when you see their lips move.
It was well said that anyone can become (Vice-) President of the USofA and (viewed from outside) it seems that they do.

Mind you, I did rather like the speech by him, whatever he's called (Bidon, Biden, can't remember), that they found somewhere in which he told his audience that at the time of the Wall Street Crash, President F.D. Roosevelt went on television to calm things down.

I watched it.

Most you can say for her is that the didn't screw up.  Which was a win for McCain because he didn't have to clean up any huge mess the next day.  As far as addressing any particular plan, she bailed faster than a sinking ship and avoided any type of answer. 

Unfortunately, Biden's responses while they did contain context for a plans (health care, the war, economy), the precepts for the plans are still wrong.
