Yes. I know. I'm sorry I haven't written lately. You are going to be jealous of my life when I tell you this...last week I watched the Office and Simpsons in my popular media class. Then in my government and ethics class our professor bought the class pizza, breadsticks, and drinks. We have over 40 students, so that definitally equates to me having the best professor out of all of yours and mine combined;0 be jealous. I got a letter from Chase the other day. He is sick of cleaning up the Hurricane...that would really suck. I went on a date to Olive Garden last Thursday with a guy from England. He is pretty hillarious. We watched pushing daisies at his house after that, do you watch that show? It is my all time favorite.
Sooo....what did you think of the vp debate?
I’m not going to lie, this was a tough one. Considering I’m not completely siding with either one of the candidates even after they verbally fought it out, I would have to say they both showed their strengths and weaknesses. Sarah Palin seemed very open and able to relate with the American people. In my opinion she is definitely a people person, I believe that was one of her greatest strengths during this debate. However, her lack of experience showed as she kept referring to “What I did in Alaska….”. I understand she did many incredible things for the state of Alaska but I also believe the United States is bigger than just in Alaska. Someone running our country will need to know how to govern a nation rather than just a state.
But she brought a whole new look too politics. She has already turned many heads as a woman VP candidate, and I believe that is what McCain was aiming to do. But just the way she talks, dresses, acts, and lives, are all new to the political world. She kept saying that she wanted to bring something fresh to Washington. I believe she will do that, the only thing I am wondering, is if a hockey mom and Governor of Alaska has the skills to govern our nation. Joe Biden was definitely not a people person. He seemed very dry and I found myself almost falling asleep when he was talking. But I thought he had some good arguments and some good points. He looks like the typical VP candidate and has the experience from the senate. It is a tough choice but I think I’m slowly siding with Palin. Anyway mom loves Palin, so don't say anything bad about her around mom. She will chew your ear off.
Anyway...THANK YOU FOR THE GERBER DAISY AND HOW TO LOOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS. IT MADE MY DAY! You are the best sister in the world!!!! All my roomates are jealous;)
