( spoilers within )

I watched a little bit of the debate. It's too cringe worthy for me to be able to watch much of (akin to people not being able to watch themselves on video, or worried about jinxing their team by tuning into a game). Pretty even draw which kind of sucks and goes to show that Rove had his hand in the past week of Palin's hideous stupid interviews as a tactic. Cause now they can say, "ooh, look what she was able to do w/ 2 weeks of studying. Imagine what she'll be able to do once she's vice president and has some time to read the constitution for once". Or some such. Not like the important question of how her religious beliefs might inform her policies if she does get called up to the big leagues.

One thing I did find interesting is that she seems to have taken Bush Jr's tactic of smirking and making different facial tics in response to things that Biden says. Very disrespectful, especially given that he's been in the business a bit longer and is actually a congressman and all that. Just rubs the wrong damn way. Which goes along with the question that won't be asked above. The smugness that comes with knowing you'll win because "god wills it" has never ceased to infuriate me.
