What’s more fun than watching Sarah Palin stumble her way through nonsensical answers to serious political questions? Beating your friends at a game of Palin Bingo while watching it happen, that’s what. Get your game cards now, just in time for tonight’s debate!
One rule I think the creators should have added: Special bonus points if you can get bingo from the answer to a single question by Palin. With the way she bounces around and spews out the buzz words, it might just be possible.
In all seriousness, my fingers are crossed for tonight’s debate. As long as Palin is forced to actually cite specifics, she’s toast. If she’s allowed to dance around and provide no real information, it may be seen as something of a win. (Substitute the word “may” with “will definitely” in the previous sentence if you watch Fox News)
I will say this, however: If she tanks tonight and has anything close to a performance similar to that of the Couric interviews, it’s game over for the McCain/Palin ticket. Being well behind in every poll out there, they desperately need a BIG win tonight. Biden just needs to stick to the issues, not get overly emotional and stay away from coming across as condescending.
Thanks to a couple of friends for pointing me to this McCain video shot earlier this year. I’m not sure I can do justice to the comments that need to be made about this video, other than to question why it still exists in the video archives on McCain’s website (which it does). What could he possibly hoped to have gained from doing this that would have outweighed the potential ridicule? Then again, he is now the Republican presidential nominee and the video was targeted toward WWE viewers who live in South Carolina. No offense if you fall within that demographic, but I think you know what I’m saying.
I can smell what The Mac is cooking and it smells like ass.
Thanks to Brian for sending this one my way.
