But Palin, so far, look like she will be a complete 'yes man' or uh, yes woman and will basically just follow. I personnally dont mind this in the since her views scares the hell out of me lol, BUT, one thing I liked about Clinton and Gore is that they seem to have more of a partnership than anything, NOT perfect (read George Stephanopolis--crap I messed that up lol--book, "All too human") but a good relationship. Cheney seems to have TOO much power in this one and it looks like once McCain and Palin get in, she will be more ceremonial in the role than an active participant and policy maker and not someone to truly challenge him on the bigger stuff. But we'll see I guess.

I'm glad Biden criticized the computer ad - he's starting to grow on me. While there might be a point in there somewhere, it's just seemed really childish.
