rate the debates

Free Press has launched Rate the Debates, which they’re describing as “a citizen-driven guide to better media coverage of the issues that matter most.” It’s an interesting experiment.

I’ve signed up, although this will interfere with my plan to turn the Vice-Presidential debate into a drinking game wherein one takes a drink every time Palin or Biden start an answer with the word “look.” It’s for the best, did you watch Biden’s last visit to Meet the Press? He said “look” so many times I couldn’t stop laughing. Not good, Joe, not good at all. (page 4 alone of the transcript has 11 looks!)

    “Ladies and Gentlemen” is also Biden’s goto phrase. I counted the number of times he used in a speach last week. 34. It kept me awake driving across Alligator Alley.

    I’m sure Palin has one too but I don’t think I’ve heard her unscripted except at the World Trade Center site this morning where she babbled nonsense.

    Oh, and I don’t think she has a CLUE about flights from Moscow to the US, since I seriously doubt they’d go the long way across Alaska to get from the Kremlin to the WH.
