And the bids have been cast

As we head to the polls today and vote for the candidate that we like the best it should be noted that the eBay polls, for our candidates Cabbage Patch kids, have already closed; and the winner is. . .

Sarah Palin @ $19,000

I'm speechless at the cost of this doll. I mean I could use that to continue my college education. Maybe I should put myself on eBay and see who wants to bid on paying for my college education! Don't get me wrong, the money did go to a good cause (Toy's for Tots). I just think that my education would be a better one;)

The rest of the dolls rankings are as follows. . .

#2 Barrack Obama @ $8,400
#3 John McCain @ $6,000
#4 Joe Biden @ $3,550.01

Post #100

For my 100th post I decided to show off these great collectors items from eBay! Seriously if I had thousands of dollars I would totally be bidding on the Sarah Palin Cabbage Patch Doll. How much fun would it be to own that?!

I remember in the 80's mothers getting into throwdowns in the isle of Toys'R'Us just to make sure that the doll was under the Christmas tree for their daughters. I did get one a few years after that debacle thanks to my Grandma:) Now they're representing 4 of the most important people in immediate history.

Here's the bidding as it last stood:

Sarah Palin: $3,100.00
John McCain: $1,025.00
Barack Obama: $955.89
Joe Biden: $610.00

If only our votes counted like an eBay bid!

More Biden one liners

OK, the first one I posted was funny and generally Biden is always good for a laugh. However, the esteemed VP candidate has done it again except this time it's not so funny and no one (thanks to the wonderful mainstream media) is covering it.

This past weekend Joe Biden was in Seattle to stump for our incumbent Governor and raise more money for Obama (because for some reason the party thinks he doesn't have enough). Anyway, someone in the audience had a microphone and was recording his speech when he said that within 6 mo. of Obama becoming president that there would be an international crisis. There was no follow up, no explaination, and like I said no one is calling him on it! GRRR! It's one thing to put your foot in your mouth when telling a man that's confined to a wheel chair to stand up. But it's a completely different thing to offer up irresponsible rhetoric in such a public fashion.

If Palin or McCain had said this you know it would have been the lead story on every news network, but there hasn't even been a blip of anything on the radar where he's concerned. Now I do know, and I think we all do, that a new President is always tested. Something always comes up for them, but the way it was offered up was completely irreponsible. Why has the media been more scrutinising to Joe "the plumber" then these to people wanting to lead our country?! In my ever humble opinion he needs to answer up and be held accountable. Not that any one in any kind of power reads my blog, but I was just perturbed when I heard this on my radio show this afternoon.

Joes best one liners

Joe Biden (VP candidate for the Dems) has some really great one liners. In Presidential race that's been this tense it's nice to have some comic relief. Below is a youtube clip that is just a compilation of some of his best one liners. Maybe after the race he can go back to 1st grade and learn how to count. What's even scarier than his counting abilities is the fact that his audience doesn't catch it. They just clap for his comment like a bunch of monkeys, and these people are voters?!
