There's battle lines being drawn.
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong.
Young people speaking their minds
getting so much resistance from behind

Sherman set the Wayback Machine to 1984

Holy frack. I'm listening to the VP debate. I don't even know where to begin except to say Sarah Palin certainly knows the poll questions and positive words. Unfortunately she also is a walking example of doublethink in action. So many contradictory points held at the same time (which happens when all you study are the positive poll words without understanding the trade offs). And she still thinks that being gay is a choice, even with having friends who are gay. Plus, wow, just so clueless about Afghanistan. And a minor point, she says "nuc-ular".

Over all she is doing better than I expected. But at least for me I can see the training and see on her face the replaying of her handlers' instructions (including looking directly at the camera).
