re: #336 Boxy_brown

Sure, but in this case it wasn’t even wrong, stretching it maybe but not incorrect. (I am not a Palin zombie, in full disclosure, I would not have nominated her for VP. But come on as VP… compared to Joe Biden she is a rocket-scientist.)

Ok- I admit it- I was more vested in this election because while I have always been proud of being an American, I never really felt represented in any election. I never ONCE believed in Clinton and his “feel your pain” and time after time after time I voted by party and well, that was that- then this election of the perfect storm broke- and there was a MOM with a kid with special needs, one who had scrapped her way through school I did it waiting tables, I am not ugly, but not beauty pagent material, she got through too- and I finaly felt represented.

She told the truth, as far as I knew, during the debate, and she said what I was thinking about government, Israel, and well a lot of things I believed in…so yeah, I idenitfied with her, which was a far cry from the usual.
