I debate better when I've had a few

I think Biden won pretty handily. However, since Palin was held to a standard that allowed her to win provided she didn't just show up and drool, she did "better than expected."

Mostly, I spent the entire time with our former roommate and her boyfriend and feiran doing terrible impressions of an Irish accent after Palin flubbed and called her opponent "O'Biden." There really wasn't a prayer of us taking her seriously before the debate, let alone after that.

"Auch, Oi think I'll stop 'round the pub after this to forget I ever had to debate this silly bint. Oi'm not sayin' she ain't ready to be president. Oi just don't think she's qualified to be in charge of a PTA bake sale, Oi don't."

I got home after the debate ended, so was trying to catch highlights by flipping through different networks. And it literally is one network saying, "Palin was a firecracker. She shone," and another saying, "I've never seen a poorer showing as I did from Palin tonight." Ridic.

She would seem to shine if you only compared her against her interviews among the press. It's all relative. Except when you come down to substance. Then they all pretty much agree that Biden cleaned her clock.

I just couldn't believe the way she kept referring to herself as middle class. You have to figure that when Biden was chuckling while she spoke he was thinking "What an effing dumbass"

I've actually seen T-shirts that were a green Celtic font on a black background and said O'Biden. Perhaps she had seen one of those and thought it was his actual name. LOL.

Our former roommate said that some suggested campaigning with a purposeful misspelling of Obama to be "O'bama" in the heartland so they'd be less intimidated by his name.

Best part about pretending to be Joe O'Biden: he's Catholic! It works!
