The Vice Presidential Debate

in

Since last night was the vice presidential debate between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin, I thought I'd add one more vice presidential voice to your listening. Matt Gonzalez, Ralph Nader's vice presidential running mate. Have I mentioned that he's my favorite vice presidential candidate? ...

Both Rosa Clemente of the Green Party and Matt Gonzalez got a chance to speak about the debate on this morning's edition of Democracy Now!

If you missed the debate here it is compliments of hulu:

Too Good To Not Post

As I was watching some of last weeks episodes of "The Daily Show" that I had missed. I could not help but laugh out loud at a couple of bits. Here is a great one on the differences of opinion around the same issue when people are talking about someone they don't want to support and someone they do.
...

However, nothing made me laugh harder than the bit at about 4:20 in this section that compared John McCain's acceptance speech to George W. Bush's 2000 acceptance speech.

I just love how this shows speaking to what people want to hear more than anything of substance. I would love to see how Democratic candidate acceptance speeches are similar, if they are.
