1. I hope that Obama tells Palin that since she campaigned so hard
against pork and earmarks, and bragged about not needing anything for the state of Alaska, then he would assume that she is just there to socialize. And ask her to give back the Bridge to Nowhere money, since she said "Thanks, but no thanks".

7. I think we couldn't see it her because of the camera angle...
.... but at one point, there seemed to be a flurry of cameras going off.

If they shook hands SOMEONE got it. And it would REALLY surprise me that Dr. Concilliatory wouldn't GIVE the press that photo op.

16. Love Joe
I liked when he said he understands that most states aren't allowed to run deficits. He then said that he hopes they don't criticize the federal govt. for running up the deficit while trying to help states out.

27. And Barack called him Joe back. I wonder if its weird to call each other Mr. President elect
and Mr. Vice President elect. I would laugh everytime I had to say that. Its very strange to go from being a normal person to being Mr. President and Mr. Vice President

19. "I want to send a special message to my Republican colleagues..."
Edited on Tue Dec-02-08 10:42 AM by Clio the Leo
"There is a time for campaigning and a time for working .... we are not going to be hampered by ideology, we want to figure out what works. If you can show me what's working in your state, you will have a ready ear." (paraphrased)

I LOVE this man!!!!

29. I love him too. He is such a smart fellow and so darn likable
I think the Repub governors will have a hard time not liking/trusting him. He is offering help that Bush never did and he is such a good guy on top of it. I love our VP too. We are darn lucky to have these two guys right now.
