“Can I Call You Joe?”

Posted in: American Politics, Sarah Palin

She didn’t seem to make any major gaffes, (although seemed a bit confused about the VP’s role) and she sounded lucid, but is it me, or did she evade every single question apart from the energy one? She just seemed to dig her heels in and stick to her rehearsed talking points, regardless of the questions asked.

I really wish the format had been more like that of the McCain/Obama debate.

Also, was that a pop at the mainstream media right at the end of her closing statement?

I hadn’t been too sure about Joe Biden, prior to seeing this debate, but I have to say, I was impressed with him.

What did you guys think?

Oooh I Like This…

Taken from Lori over at Let’s Gab:

So, people, go and register to vote! It’s your country, and your future.

Oh, and don’t forget to post this on your blog too. If every blogger in Romanceland posts this on their blog, then the message should reach lots more people, many who may not have registered yet.
