Palin needs to never speak again. Or at least learn how to talk without saying "Gosh darn it" and all other things of that nature. OMFG that got annoying. And to be bipartisan (ahahaha), Biden also annoyed me with his numbering.

However, Joe Biden is my hero for calling them out on the maverick thing. Also, I hope people realize how many questions Palin dodged and/or ignored. It felt to me like she'd been taught the talking points and didn't know what to do beyond them, so she always had to bring things back to what she knew.

I think Biden won, but Palin didn't do as badly as I was hoping she would.

But in other political news, I now have a paid internship to work for a local candidate, and for Obama here. They want me ten hours a week until the election, and for that I'll get $300, which is pretty damn good--and if I want to work more hours, I'll get compensated for those, too. Good deal! I'll of course be doorbelling and phone banking and just getting out the vote, which is not my favorite thing, but it's what needs to be done, so I'm fine with doing it.

But yes. I'm very pleased. I can make some money and be politically active, which is great. :D

Now I have to do some homework, which is not so great, but I'm going to start on Saturday, and I'm looking forward to that.

Yeah, I wish she could have been more directly challenged, but at least it's the VP debate and people are more likely to make decisions based on Obama/McCain than Biden/Palin.
