I read today on the Web that the number of Blogs written in the past 24 hours number in the tens of thousands. I guess that they are being read and probably will generate even more replies and controversy. Even though, I have not received much of a response, I am determined to continue.
Along with countless millions in the USA and throughout the World, I watched the debate between the two candidates for Vice-president. Normally the Veep debate does not gather huge audiences but this election certainly has elicited a huge response since the nomination of Governor Sarah Palin by the Republican Party. There were many who questioned the wisdom of her selection and obvious inexperience, including yours truly yet I was surprised today by performance and style. I still think it won't work.
Senator Biden has more experience it is true but I was put off a little by coming across as a professional politician. Biden has more seniority than Obama yet he came across as being deferential to him. However I think the Obama-Biden ticket would govern better than McCain-Palin. I think the American voters are going to severely punish the Republicans for getting into the current financial mess. That is how this Tasmanian sees the situation as it is currently panning out. I think Americans want change and an end to the current mess and they are looking for scapegoats. I also think the financial mess is too deep to be solved with a bailout package, which is apparently deeply unpopular with ordinary voters
