Sarah Palin is the hungover guy in a discussion section

The Vice Presidential Debate analysis is unnecessarily extensive when it is clear that Sarah Palin is in no place to be the second most powerful public official in the country.  Enough of this, “she wasn’t as bad as expected, so she was good,” nonsense.

This treatment is akin to if the hungover guy in a college discussion section who had done none of the reading for the semester got accolades from an otherwise embittered grad student for “being full of crap but not as full of crap as we expected.”  It would not and should not happen.

That is my only comment about this debate, other than I thought Joe Biden was genuine, knowledgeable, and to my relief did not insist on talking down to “Joe Sixpack.”

    On an unrelated note, what’s the name of the theme you’re using for your blog? I really like it!

    Abdul, oddly enough, it’s called Contempt. I don’t think it exudes it, though..
