getting all worked up...

and along comes this extremely competent word smith and sums up all that I feel on the subject: Mrs. Palin.

So, you don't care for Palin either eh?
I watched the debate she had with Biden and I have to say, neither of them struck me as any good, but Biden easily was the lesser of two evils.

BTW Congrats on meeting your running goal for August. I didn't think you were going to make it!

Couldn't agree more..

Biden seemed to know the figures on his finger tips (but lack in clear, snappy communication) and Palin didn't know anything and tried flirting her way through.. (and I think she was particularly flirting with soccermoms and other gullible women, sorry to say).

She is such a disgrace that I haven't even remotely - and I was raised by a declared feminist! - considered voting for her. One comment on an article at huffington Post was by a Republican woman who had voted for Hillary because of her gender (!) and who was now voting Obama as she deemed McCain/Palin an obnoxious idea!

At least we can agree that a couple of people who seem to get the picture a bit are more important than gender, or even party colour. And don't even get me started on that old, foolish sidekick of hers!

Yeah - thanks! I'm rather proud to have made the running. It was frustrating to be ill most of September when I had just got into it. But now I'm back, and it's amazing how fast I have actually felt a difference in my conditioning. Very cool. I'm on target for my 80km October!
