1. They're both on tonite.

Palinocchio is on the first hour and Biden is on the second hour.

Can't wait :)

[gateley]

6. Don't forget to report back for your cable-free friends --

although I'm sure there will be LOTS of opinions expressed. :7

[Muttocracy]

8. Palinocchio! Perfect! :-D

[Jennicut]

14. His will be the much better one as we all know what we need to know about her

She is crazy and a nutjob!

[gateley]

40. That about sums it up!! :-D nt

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

2. Where's the info?

Sorry, but I don't see it.

[Muttocracy]

3. probably meant this page - has a few clips up already:

[gateley]

5. Thanks, JIOOU --

I went back and gave the link.

If I had a nickel for every time I forgot to add a link, I'd be a Republican.

[Muttocracy]

7. you and me both

well, I'd probably be a Libertarian instead, but

:hug:

[jillan]

9. gateley - you could NEVER be a republican!

You're too wonderful to ever be one of them:pals:

[Muttocracy]

10. they'd have to change the party for her :)

[gateley]

4. At the link I neglected to provide!

:blush: :banghead:

I went back and inserted it -- thanks for bringing it to my attention. :hi:

[endthewar]

12. Please don't hit your head to hard

We enjoy your company on here. :-)

[gateley]

44. Awww --

Ditto! :pals:

[Muttocracy]

11. I'm trying the CNN TV audio feed to get around cable - people yelling about Palin! nt

[gateley]

13. I keep forgetting about that! Thanks for the reminder -- I'm heading over now! nt

[Muttocracy]

15. almost forgot myself! it's on the CNN home page 1/2 way down the right...

under the Palin / Biden logo.

[Muttocracy]

16. I think this is the direct link, hope it's the stream for the real show! :

http://www.cnn.com/audio/radio/cnntv.html

[Muttocracy]

17. Here we go folks! I can barely stand her voice, really can't stand to watch her

so maybe the audio-only feed will be good. Fewer moose though.

[Muttocracy]

18. Her dad was a science teacher? I thought he was a coach. Wonder which "science". nt

[gateley]

21. Sure sounds like a fuzzy, warm fluff piece thus far.

[Muttocracy]

25. yeah, I'm doing housework and half-listening. Her college story had quite a spin

about Alaskans not being able to check out other schools. Baloney. I did research on schools ahead of time, flew with one parent to visit one school, applied early, done deal.

[gateley]

30. They're alluding to the less than favorable aspects about her now -- but

still with a velvet glove.

[1corona4u]

19. I'll be tuning in at 10:00....not watching the douche....I'm sick of her.

[gateley]

22. I'm just getting the audio, and so far it's pretty sappy. nt

[Muttocracy]

26. her sisters and friends sound just like her so far (audio only)

[gateley]

46. Yeah! A couple of times I didn't know if I was listening to her or her

sister(s) until whatever they were saying cleared it up.

[my3boyz]

20. I think hers is coming on right now. You could not pay me to watch it. Can't wait to watch

Biden's special though.

[gateley]

23. Your blood pressure is probably the better for it.

I don't know if you saw a clip of Joe's appearance, but it was a tear jerker. So grab the hankies!

[my3boyz]

24. No, I did not see the previews. I had a feeling it was going

to be a tear jerker because of what he went through after his first wife died. Then also when he almost died. I can't wait to learn more about his life though.

[gateley]

27. NOTE: The difference is that he sat down to take questions from CNN --

and he got choked up (hankie time). Palin's bit only has people talking ABOUT her or old clips of her -- she didn't agree to be interviewed.

[stray cat]

28. Know your enemy particularly the way they spin reality

[Muttocracy]

29. 24 minutes in, and we're just getting to mayor - mix of fluff and scandal. nt

[jenmito]

31. I just tuned in about 5 min. ago `and saw that she was accused of wanting to ban books and refused

an interview. THAT'S something we can use. Then they talked about earmarks, how she took them, and how McCain said he'd "make them (those who take earmarks) famous." But it's also a fluff piece.

[Muttocracy]

35. yeah, they did find some critics up there. All politics so far, little accomplishment IMHO. nt

[jenmito]

38. But they ARE portraying her as a "tough mother" and all that. I'm sure they'll show it a million

more times so I can catch the first 25 min.

[Muttocracy]

39. I hope people actually watch Joe's segment - I hope they show it first on Sunday. nt

[jenmito]

41. I'LL be watching it. But I'm not sure everyone will stay tuned, sadly. And I DOUBT

they'll change the order tomorrow.

[gateley]

47. Yeah -- Cenk did a spot on that and said "Here's your name, McCain -- Sarah Palin!" nt

[gateley]

32. Yeah - and we can expect them to highlight Joe's negatives, too --

but IMO, they're nothing compared to hers. He didn't plunge his State into debt, for example. AND, he can answer them PERSONALLY because he hasn't been sequestered. :eyes:

Gotta give CNN credit, thought -- they're showcasing them both, rather than just Palin.

[jenmito]

34. But they never would've shown both of them unless one of them was Palin. n/t

[gateley]

36. You're probably right. The VP doesn't usually warrant this much attention. nt

[jenmito]

42. And "fair and balanced" Faux isn't even TRYING to look fair. They don't HAVE a show about Biden...

just Palin, "An American Woman" or something. :eyes:

[jenmito]

33. "Rising star." Sound familiar?

:eyes:

[Muttocracy]

37. yeah, some absurd thing about rocketing from mom to PTA to mayor

which doesn't seem that radical to me - I know several people who have been professors or other professionals who also served as town justices, village mayors, etc. Big whoop.

[jenmito]

43. Yup. Especially when it's mayor then governor in ALASKA. n/t

[jenmito]

45. They're really glossing over some parts...

IF the part about her throwing her pregnant daughter is true, she's in trouble. Why WAS her daughter taken out of school for several months? The story is that her mother threw her out of her house and made her live with her sister 25 miles away.

[gateley]

48. Nice. They BEGIN by dissing Joe - at length! nt

[Muttocracy]

49. I liked hearing his lifelong friends and some of the info about him in high school

not because they're important but because I already know most of the rest of it ;)
