A skilled debater versus a skilled legislator

My quick take from the debate (after getting a chance to watch it) is simple. A good debater (Palin) battled a good legislator (Joe Biden). In that case, it was probably a draw. What Palin was able to do last night was essentially reassure base supporters that she isn’t a moron, that their faith is [...]

VP Debate

Tonight my lovely fiance and I had the rehearsal dinner for our wedding (!) and thusly were not able to watch the infamous VP debate. So my fellow thinkPoppers, as I study up the tape, the comment section awaits for your opinions, takes, etc….

Palin=Painful to watch

Katie Couric should send Sarah Palin a Christmas Card this year. Palin is the gift that keeps on giving for the CBS evening news. In this latest segment, Couric asks Joe Biden and Sarah Palin (separately) what their takes were on Roe V. Wade. and if there were any other supreme court rulings they disagreed [...]

Palin makes an Age Joke

Let me tell you who is NOT getting an invitation to Christmas dinner this year from Sarah Palin. That would be Katie Couric. Palin made a very mild joke at the expense of Joe Biden’s age, she mentioned having heard speeches of his since the”second grade.” Katie Couric asked her if it might be a [...]

Hello my fellow thinkPoppers. I know what you’ve been thinking…you’ve longed for video entries to thinkPOP. You’d like to see the gorgeous faces behind the words and pictures you see daily here on the blog. Well wait no more! The first of what I hope to be many video entries is [...]

Obama Must React This Week

There may be no other opportunity quite like this this election year. The deepening financial insecurity penetrating the nation is a crisis of yet unknown magnitude. It is also an opportunity that Obama cannot pass up to convince the American people that he can lead not just on hope and rhetoric, but through a crisis [...]

Obama Needs to Stop With All of The Same

Just read an excellent article on AdAge that makes an equally excellent point. Though Obama/Biden like to keep pounding us over the head with it, McCain is NOT Bush. He may think like Bush…vote for Bush…eat birthday cake with Bush. But at the end of the day, the campaign isn’t against Bush or Palin. I [...]

Palin/Biden Deathmatch?

Here’s one I don’t understand…why every pundit in Washington says Joe Biden will need to be very careful in attacking Sarah Palin in their VP debate. To me its the most sexist thing anyone could say about her candidacy. 
I thought Sarah Palin was the tough-girl, Moose-Killer, Hockey Mom? If she is ready to be commander [...]

Obama Chooses Biden

Barack Obama has tapped Joe Biden to be his running mate. Looks like David Brooks and I both got our wish!
I’ve like Biden as a candidate for a long time, I am thrilled and shocked that Obama actually picked the guy I wanted take a look at this taken from a post back in our [...]
