I’m seriously wanting to know who this Joe Six Pack person is… Is that what rich people w/ a net worth of 1.2 million call working class people? Seriously who refers to themselves as Joe Six Pack? Working class don’t sit around calling themselves Joe Six Packand pat themselves on the back as to say, I’m the American working class because they are too busy trying to make the rent.
Sarah Palin brought a knife to a gun fight, and she ducked more questions than goose. That may be okay for some, but for people who actually prefer a well thought out plan as to what their going to do about situations instead of a smart ass answer that isn’t even on topic, it simply won’t do. We’ve had a “regular Joe” [who came from a family that's wealthier than most in America] in office for the past 8 years. Yes, that’s been a lot of fun – 2 wars, terrorist attacks on US soil, and an economic meltdown among other things. Abraham Lincoln once said – “You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”
Well, it seems as if Sarah Palin held her own in the VP Debates, however, distractions and being elusive when answering questions can get you 8 years in office. Eventually American voters will see through the bullsh#t we’ve been sold for the past 8 years, but you never know because maybe people like sh#t sandwiches and want more but maybe they’ve grown tired of the stink juuust maybe.
She don’t represent me!

One can neither win, nor lose a debate. What they can do however, is express to their respective consituents whether or not they logically make sense to them and make them feel as though they are truly fighting for them. They can connect with them, and hit home with the diverse modes that reflect the worldviews of their constituent base. Apparently, judging by the nature of the reaction from both sides, both sides are claiming victory, when this is actually incalculable. It is simply a reflection that both candidates followed through with the hypothesis stated above.
So… no one “won” or “lost” the debate. The prevailing views of either opponent will logically come through as the representative majority in the end on voting day. And of course from the Republican view it will stop the bleeding, which is a turn around from the commonly held views of the formerly “incompetent” Sarah Palin. If having Sarah Palin avoid any gaffes was the objective, then yes… they won. Same goes for Biden.. no gaffes or mysoginist attacks = a win. Pretty low standards for both, but c’est l’avis.
My vote still went to Obama. That’s the most elated I’ve ever felt in my entire life for ever having cast a vote for a candidate to high public office.
