I don't usually watch political debates because I don't think any real problems get addressed. But I won't miss the VP debate on Thursday night. Not for any political reason but more in line with my professional experience with teleprompters. During the first GW Bush debate there was clearly a small rectangular box easily seen outlined under his coat. I'm certain this was a small microwave receiver through which his handlers could transmit the 'correct' answers through an ear prompter. The giveaway was to watch Bush ramble around in answer to the questions until he got on point through the hints transmitted to him. Once on point.. away he'd go. Having watched Gov Palins pathetic non-responses to soft ball questions it should be interesting. So Gov Palin has been practicing her act in Arizona for the last few days memorizing the needed 'scripts'. During the debate watch while she flounders around in her cutesy way until she gets the right script from off stage. If it was me I'd transmit a white noise to hide any transmissions in the theater and sit back to watch the fun. It should be interesting even with the ear prompter in play. It worked for George.
Gov Palins ear prompter goes to show that we're all on this flight together.
