It’s too bad there’s only one VP debate this year. I figure a drinking game would be a great addition to any rematch. Every time Biden quotes a McCain vote that contradicts McCain’s rhetoric, drink. Every time Palin drops the trailing “g” on any “ing” word, drink. Every time Palin says “maverick” – shot! Any time either candidate fully answers the question posed without wandering into completely unrelated territory – everyone drinks! Fortunately, there’s not much chance of that last one…
Has there been an actual debate, as we would know the event from high school or college debating teams, in the history of televised Presidential debates? You know, where there are rules that the debaters can violate, such as “not answering the question posed?” Without procedural rules and the voting from a group of disinterested people, the term “debate” becomes a bit silly. Both sides can claim to win, and depending on how low we set the bar, we can all agree that both sides “won” a contest that has no score. *sigh*
