Obama/Biden vs. McCain/Palin

[ghostrunner]

Her voice definitely isn't the best, and she looks a little pissed every so often. But on the whole, not as bad as I thought she might be.

Probably the opposite of Obama - bad in speeches, better in conversational formats.

I have a baby.

Look how relate able I am.

Let's hear something about actual issues.

You may want to hear something about the issues, but what you just said at the top of that small paragraph is what she's doing to a lot of people right now

Don't take the dumbing down of society too lightly

I think anyone who served in war is a better "American" than those who didn't. That doesn't mean I think they would make a better president.

O.K. Nathan Bedford Forrest is a better "American" than me.

/sheesh

I see what you did there. (you know what I mean, I hope)

Nothing, but he was comparing it to the whole POW thing and who is a better "American."

Who is the better American?

I'm just gonna leave that one alone.

Go ahead. Try to argue the opposite. You will never convince me no matter what you say.

That's why I'm going to leave it alone. I guess I don't see how someone who serves in war is any more American than my police officer grandfather, my cousin who is a county commissioner, Lee Greenwood or anyone else in America.

Absolutly 100% agree with you

I will disagree with you. I work with several Iraq Vets and I am definitely a better American than some of them.

It's her first major speech. It's not at all uncommon to introduce family members, especially in the case of a newcomer. Obama brought his kids on stage.

Well I fully appreciate what every soldier does by serving this country so my big wussy ass doesn't have to..

I know I'd be a complete wuss about joining the service, which is why I have the opinion I do..

Not saying you have to share it
