Much better speech than Palin.  Not about how she ran her relatively obscure state or her completely unknown town.  He talks about the current issues and not some attempt to say "hey I have some experience, lemme talk about the little I have done for 10 minutes".

"McCain... is now openly endorsing the policies endorsed by the white house and promising to continue them.  Those policies?  The same policies?  I believe in recycling but thats ridiculous" - Al Gore

Palin was introducing herself to the country, so she had to explain what she's done.

Alaska isn't obscure either, it's got an 11 billion dollar budget.  Obama's never managed anything close.

Gore's speech was pretty good (I watched it live), but it put the minority crowd to sleep when he went captain planet for like 20 minutes talking about global warming.

She governed 9,000 people, BIG WHOOP.

And if her speech actually talked more about the issues instead of trying to trash Obama, maybe it would have been a good speech.

She governed 650,000 people.

Obama organized like 20 people on his block as a community organizer.

VP speeches are traditionally attack speeches.  The VP serves as an attack dog (Hence her line about the pit bull with lipstick)

You're comparing the recent feats of a political career to the beginning of another.

Fair comparison if you ask me.

I've trolled thousands of people, and I don't even get paid for it.  Pretty much the same thing, no?

I should be president.

Yeah, its unfortunate.  However, it should help swing some of the younger college educated voters to Obama's side.  No need to appeal to the minority crowd who are going to vote based on principle.

My only objection to Palin's speech were the blatant lies involving the Bridge to Nowhere. :P

Also Crispy, the best speech of the DNC was Dennis Kucinich.  Did you see it?  If not you should.

"Change is not a destination. Hope is not a strategy". Maybe obama should listen to rudy, since thats almost what his entire campaign is based off of.

Or we can follow the same policies that have gotten into this mess.  If Rudy really believes that Obama's plan is to hope and just change things randomly, hes ****n' insane.  Hes just trying to play a word game with the hopes of confusing people, you were a victim.

Last time I checked democrats focused on being victims just ask hilary. Oh and if I remember correctly Bill Clinton was the governer OF ARKANSAS because arkansas is SO MUCH BIGGER AND MORE RESPECTABLE THAN ALASKA and he was one of favored democratic presidents.

In regards to the OP. AL GORE ISNT GOING TO BE THE REPUBLICAN/DEMOCRATIC VICE PRESIDENT. You cant ******* compare the two speaches they're coming from two entirely different positions. Give me a break.

Vote obama if you want the goverment to wipe your ass for you.

I can and I did, deal with that hard logic.  Did I imply Al Gore would be a better VP (although he definitely would)?  No.  I said his speech was better though and it was.  QQ more pls.

Its funny how you're going to generalize Hillary as being THE democrat who speaks for everyone. Because in that case under Bush and a republican controlled congress broke a U.N. Charter which stated that nations "shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state...*" which was ratified and signed by the Truman - the President of the United States in 1945.  Treaties signed and ratified by the U.S. Congress pursuant to Article 5 of the United States Constitution become "supreme law of the land".  So not only does that make the war Unconstitutional, it shows Bush is a liar for breaking his vow to uphold the constitution.  I guess all Republicans are THAT way, right?  Because one person was?

* there were two exceptions which were not met

There are also many other things the Bush Administration did which violated the Constitution.

I dont care enough about politics to actually have this debate with you, and im sure you're going to respond with something like "because im right an you're wrong" or "because i used hard logic". You still cant compare two speeches that are completly different. Everyone knows who al gore is, nobody knows who Sarah Palin is. That being says she has to start from square one and cant just dive in.
Im right you're wrong. Accept that hard logic. Cry about it.

I said the logic was hard, sarcastically, it was preety ******* simple. lol

You can compare two person's speech giving abilities.  That is simple.   "Much better speech than Palin."

I also compared their topics.  That is simple.  "He talks about the current issues and not some attempt to say "hey I
have some experience, lemme talk about the little I have done for 10
minutes"."

If you're going to keep saying that my arguments are simply "it is because it is", you've got to accept the fact that you're saying "it isn't because it isn't".  The relative notoriety of the two speakers doesn't have to deal with their speech giving abilities.  You can point out a good speaker without having known them previously.

You're imbecile response is fitting though, of the average nerdrager on GR.  Get trolt more.

Hey, on the contrary barack obama's outstanding record of past accomplishments IS ASTONISHING.
I thought you're arguement was based on the speeches delivery not on the content. Every one in the country, including her politcal oppenets have indicated it was a brilliant speech delivered perfectly. "A star was born on the national political scene". Al gore has been on the politcal scene for over 25 years. Funny how i've never heard star and al gore in the same sentence.

You're insulting palin's speech and comparing it to al gores. what is wrong with you. The post was just as much about palin as it is about al gore.

You're opening sentence was "Much better speech than Palin." And you're saying that nobody should disagree or have a different opinion BECAUSE THATS NOT WHATS IN THE VIDEO. Welcome to debate class 101.

And this is completly civil. If you expect well formatted and writen responses im pretty sure gameriot isnt the place to find it. Do you live under a rock?

You're making a pointless argument about my opinion that Palin's speech was not as good as Al Gore's.  Good Going.

Al Gore's speech was much better than Palin's.  Wheres the comparisson?  I compared how good his was to hers.  If that is a point to argue over, it just shows the level of intolerance GR users have.  I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're a troll.
