The American VP debate was pretty interesting. I figured Palin would be more embarrassing than she was. Even still I think this summarizes (dead link removed - Jan/24) most of her responses all night. She sounded a lot like a high school kid running for some student representative position, NOT VP of the Worldโs most powerful nation. That in itself is disturbing, but how she ducked the questions with non-answers only confirmed my suspensions that she has no business anywhere outside of Alaska. But then again she is a maverick. Did I mention she is a maverick? So is McCain? Right? Sigh. Vote Democrat!
At home we also has a debate. As is typically Canadian all the leaders gained up on the incumbent Mr.Harper. The Green leader was surprisingly well versed on all of the issues. Iโm sure the Greens will pick up some support. Dionโฆ. wellโฆ I like the party and hate the leader. Could they find someone more vanilla? Unlike Duceppe, who I love but hate his party. Anywayโฆ Iโm hoping Canadians will come to their senses and avoid a Conservative majority. That would be disturbing. Unfortunately I think the left has too many options and the % each party will get will leave the Blues in power again. Gah.
