I'll Drink To That!

With the election in clear sight, candidates and running mates are on their best game, right? As interviews and debates pass by, I wouldn’t be too sure with John McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin. Not only does Sarah Palin catch the public’s eye for being the first woman vice presidential candidate, but with her experience- or lack of it. How can voters feel good about a future leader when she can’t answer simple questions? To cut to the chase, Sarah seems to have an issue answering questions asked for her, and for her age she sure does repeat herself a lot. Although politicians usually play the dancing around the question game, Sarah Palin has made a name for herself by doing that. In a recent interview with Katie Couric, our possible future vice president could not list one newspaper she‘s read in Alaska, but could tell us she’s read “All of them …any of the ones put in front of me”. After the debate aired many spoofs were made about Palin. To the interest of many college students, a drinking game was created for watching the debate. From taking a chug for when she says “Thanks, but no thanks” to chugging a whole bottle if she mentions Palin Presidency (Ha Ha). This is comical - but how can you support someone who has been made into such a joke?
