Palin vs Biden Debate

I loved how Biden totally smashed her face when she was first to speak about VP powers, and how much power they should have in legislative branch.

She was talking about how she would like some more power for the VP to "help" out the legislative branch, and Biden totally owns her by just reading to her what the constitution (that's the bible for politicians) says about how much power the VP SHOULD have and only vote when there is a tie, and nothing else.

She did better there, then in the interview.

I can handle someone stumbling over words (besides, Biden had a terrible stuttering problem from growing up to early 20's), but what I can't handle is someone blatantly trying to override the constitution to give themselves more power. That's a move out of the Cheney/Bush playbook.

I could give 2 shits about McCain, Obama, or Palin.... but Biden.... he actually seems like a guy I can actually vote for, even if hes not the president, the VP still has a lot of say.

Did anyone catch what Palin said about Biden's deceased wife? about her being in heaven while she had her dumb smile/giggle face going? That is like me telling a stranger I hope their dead father is in heaven..... so ruthless

Biden did almost choke when he was talking about raising his children on his own (I don't think he did it for sympathy) and it really touched my heart for some reasons I can't explain (normally when that shit goes down, I just say, "BOO HOO"), but it really touched my heart.

That debate really changed my mind on who I am pulling for. Before I didn't care for either canidate for VP or Pres.(Why would I? I was and still are a Ron Paul supporter) but seeing Biden debate, what he had to say, a little internet reading, and his pretty decent common sense logic (Palin is in the negitives on that one) I would like to give him a shot at being my VP.

I wish they would debate more on how much the wars overseas are draining the government and the us dollar value.

I did like it how Biden talked about the cost Iraq war is, compared to the Afghanistan efforts (something like 3 weeks in Iraq was equal cost to 6 1/2 years in Afghanistan)

One of the best debates I've watched so far, if not the best.

Oh and did anyone count how many times Palin called McCain a "maverick"

...jeez...anyway debate totally goes to Biden...though Palin did do well, better than expected...Biden wiped the floor with her. When the question arose about what would happen if the president died, Biden really gave a good answer and made you believe he can lead...but when Palin started answering...I cringed :D

A term that means absolutly fucking NOTHING..... being a maverick can be good and bad.

I could go on all day about how faulty Palin is in everything she says.... I dont know why, but I hate that woman with all my power...

she keeps on bringing up her "experience" with executive powers being a mayor of a town less than 8000. 8000 > 300million...

sounds kinda like the age of the earth... you know.... 6000years and 4billion

Remember people, dinosaurs and people "co-existed".... people would just be out picking berries when a t-rex would come and ask if they needed help with said berry picking. T-rex was very humble and kind... today's scientists have it all wrong..... . .. . . giggle, smirk, laugh, grin, smile, clap, .... face in palms, shakes head.

^ Yep she's pretty much an idiot...what kind of world, or country rather, do we live in when wisdom and intelligence means nothing to leaders...when people such as her can even be considered a leader!? They keep spewing experience this...experience that...that's not enough to be a leader. I guess that's the kind of product you get from democracy after a certain while. Man seriously...gone is the age when there were great leaders...now we have people like bush, McCain...kerry...jeez

i think this is a product of religious idiots to be honest...

but it all boils down to that 1500page book that was a fictional story that somehow got turned into the truth.

whats the name of that again? B.. .b.....bi.... bib...bible! thats it....

Dr. Seuss could make a more believable story involving greens eggs and ham.

I was there man.

You know why they were green?

Sam-I-Am was the biggest stoner I ever knew and a dab hand at cooking with weed.

Amazing what you can do with a bit of alcohol and a jell-o mold.

Anyway, On the surface, the debate looked like a tie. On closer inspection, you'll see that Palin was HARDLY a participant. Sounded to me like she memorized a series of speeches to use at her discretion, because every time she was asked directly about something, she'd go off on something completely different (a great debating strategy, FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW JACK ABOUT THE ISSUES) or stumble around after giving a one-line answer. As someone who really tries to stand objectively, she insulted my intelligence. If I wanted to hear the bs she pushed on us tonight, I would have looked up her GOP Convention speech.

Sorry for the anger but Palin makes me want to cry some days, and other days she makes me extremely angry.

This is one of the latter.

I think Sarah Palin did a really good job on the debate good for her i say....I still think she is an idiot and even idiots sometimes have their day......

Seemed the only thing she knows is energy. Did anyone notice when the subject of energy came up she was all smiles, but when asked about gay marriage, the economy, VP powers she looked extremely nervous, and stumbled thru them.

IMO Palin did better than expected but was no match for Biden.
