VEEP Debate

October 8, 2008 · Leave a Comment

A bit late, but hopefully its still fresh in your mind. While VP debate was hardly a game-changer, it was excellent fodder for comedy. Gaffe-avoidance was high on both candidates’ agenda, and ultimately both kept it safe – boring stuff. Palin provided the most material, what with her folksy language, cheeky winks, and her tangential and at times irrelevant arguments.

Here is a debate flowchart that popped up:

And here’s Tina Fey and Joe Sudeikis(another funnyman) re-enactment of the debate – and props to Queen Latifah for an excellent impression of Gwen Ifil.
Watch out for how ‘Palin’ blatantly (and politely) avoids a question she cannot answer.
