Liveblogging the Veeps

And away we go...

Update: Sitting. Nice change. More like they're in my home, probably drinking all my liquor (or, in the case of John Edwards, a Shirley Temple perhaps).

Update 2: I prefer beer or wine myself.

Update 3: I'm sorry, what was the question?

Update 4: Cleveland is a wonderful city, except for that whole "poor people" thing. Damn dirty beggars.

Update 5: What's with Edwards and the "Clinton thumb pointing?"

Update 6: I don't much miss Southern accents. Well, I do when they're attached to hot sorority chicks on the University of Alabama campus in their ever-so-nicely-fitting shorts, but it's a whole 'nother ballgame when it's John Edwards.

Update 7: Hmmm, is this the first VP debate in which the incumbent is a euphemism for male genitals and the challenger is somewhere you pee*? Questions, questions.

Update 8: Pause for more wine.

Update 9: Kerry and Edwards trying to have it both ways? Not something I want to picture. But, if that's your thing, you go right ahead.

Update 10: Cheney has adopted the compassionate hand-clasp. Nice touch.

Update 11: Something about 54-40 or Fight... or fifty percent of something. Or whatever. Hope it wasn't important. Are we going to invade Canada or something? They have DOOR-TO-DOOR BEER DELIVERY! Woowoo!

Update 12: No one has mentioned monkeys. This really chaps my hide.

Updayte12a: So does spanking. Mmmm, spanking.

Update 13: The Democrats have a healthcare plan. Time to put a lock on my wallet. Or hide it. Maybe I can outsource my wallet.

Update 14: Cheney just demonstrated he doesn't understand "structural unemployment." Well, I'm sure he does, but saying "Hey, some folks will always be out of work for a period of time" doesn't sell a whole lot of cookies.

Update 15: Did Cheney just allude to the Gettysburg Address with his "now we find ourselves..." line? I think he did. Nice touch. Probably too subtle for most of the populace though.

Update 16: Cheney has a big ol' melon head.

Update 17: More wine. Please hold.

Update 18: Ah, hell, it's over. OK, move along.

Update 19: Looks like Zombyboy is wingin' it again with his debate coverage. Has the man no shame?

* And poop.
