Ramblings

At the risk of giving an initial opinion while needing to get to sleep, I think Joe Biden most certainly won the debate. To my surprise, Palin didn't faint or fall down, though her voice sounded pretty shaky until the debate was well under way. Will it affect the race? I don't think it will, and now we can get back to concentrating on the presidential candidates. More tomorrow.

Taking a moment from working, in less than two hours Joe Biden and Sarah Palin will begin their long-awaited debate, and I'm hoping this will help seal the deal for Senator Obama. Palin will not likely fall completely flat, but I expect her to provide enough evidence to further convince those who seem to still need convincing that she is NOT the person for the job. Not now, anyway. I expect her to pop up somewhere else on the national scene in time.

My "YES WE CAN" shirt finally arrived in the mail today from DemocraticStuff.com! I ordered buttons for the family, a football fan one for me (as seen in the icon), one that says "Vegetarians for Obama" for DD, and one that says "Hippies for Obama" for DH, who can't seem to leave the '60s behind. The shirt, of course, is way too big, but you can never tell how these things will run. I'll shrink it some in the washer and dryer and wear it with jeans over the weekend. Ha, I should wear it while walking down the street I saw yesterday with all the McCain-Palin signs in their yards!

Well, back to work. I'm hoping for an interesting show at 9 p.m....
