Vice-Presidential Debate

And the “debate” didn't change a thing. Palin delivered the talking points she has memorized with her usual ah-shucks manner, but failed to impress me with any sense that she actually knows anything. Biden wasn't particularly impressive either, but he kept his cool and did not look like he was beating up on the little lady, which is what I'd bet the Rovians were hoping for.

I will never understand why so many voters want a President and Vice-President who are just like them. I want people who know more than I do, who are smarter than I am, who are better managers than I am — why are conservatives so intimidated by intelligence and so easily fooled by an act? GWB is no more a cowboy or a good ole boy than I am, but the entire middle of the country fell for the act. TWICE. Sarah Palin is acting. As the Shrub himself once said, “Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.”
