    How is she middle class? She makes a quarter mil per year in a state that's got a median income quite below that.

    She and her husband are worth more than a million together.

    Did she just say that a tax credit is budget neutral? How the hell is a tax credit budget neutral.

    Sweat of my brow LAWL

    The sound of eight hooves reaches his ears, comes from the heavenly light, two wolves howls fills his heart with fear, and he sees two ravens fly. Down from the sky a warlord rides, like fire his one eye glows, and just before the preacher dies he knows his god is false.

    I think she's laying it on easy for the beginning, so she can slam her at the end so the pubs can't say she was biased.

    Hey, Sarah - when you make $1M, you don't get to say you're "middle class".

    And on the tax credit, fuck you very much, Sarah.

    She's doing better than I expected, but her rhetoric is all about the base.

    It's tough to watch, though.

    That's right. Mock the fuck out of her.

    Rollins and Catgellanos are idiots.

    FAIRNESS, BITCHES!


    Because 9% think it's too high, and shouldn't be cut! 9% of respondents could not fully
    get their arms around the question. There should be another box you can check for, "I
    have utterly no idea what you're talking about. Please, God, don't ask for my input."

    Not if she had a backbone.

    All her questions are. "Palin what do you think about X? In specific I'll list a few things about X that you can say back to me."

    SARAH PALIN used SCARE TACTICS

    It's not very effective...

    JOE BIDEN used FACTS

    It's super-effective!!

    Hm. Ok, so she's actually answering questions.

    I'm shocked.

    I mean, I don't agree with her answers but she's actually giving them.

    Kudos, Mrs. Palin.

    ...

    Aaaaand now I'm depressed I just gave someone on a presidential ticket kudos for the ability to coherently answer a question. :(

    Their strategy is going to work. She will escape this debate without a major gaffe, and as a result look like a super hero for exceeding expectations. I told you motherfuckers.

    God damn it. God damn it.
