“Palin wins. Easily. Everyone thought she would an idiot. Brilliant public speaker.”
Thursday at 7:37 pm - Link
Ummm... which debate were you watching. Or did you take a hit of acid first. She recited every word she said from a script for half of the debate. - Stephan Miller
she's a trained reporter, of course she did a good job on camera. that does NOT MAKE HER A QUALIFIED CANDIDATE! - Jeremy Toeman
@Jeremy Good point. - Stephan Miller
Heh, your ability to deliver this joke with a straight face is awe inspiring. - Matt Hamilton
She won. People connected with her. She won this debate. - loren feldman
What people. The one's in trailers that use phrases like "bring em to ya" - Stephan Miller
I'd say she covered the point spread... - Michael Turro via twhirl
but Biden was giving 56. - Michael Turro via twhirl
Did anyone else notice the fact she was petrified when she started, and probably just shy of tears? - Jaemi Kehoe
Loren: Palin showed up, finally. She didn't win the debate, BUT she proved that she was capable of answering questions. I wasn't personally impressed by her answers, but she definetly wasn't giving Katie Couric answers. If the bar to winning for Palin was to show that she wasn't clueless, then perhaps she won. But from an analytical standpoint she didn't win based on her responses, in my opinion. - Jim McCusker
Sir you're missing, at least, one word or more likely two... Add a "not" to your send. - Prolific Programmer
@Jim 1) she had cue cards 2) she clearly read from them, as there were several phrases repeated multiple times 3) the moderator let her off easy 4) so did Biden 5) most importantly - don't you want MORE in your elected officials than "capable of answering questions"??!?!?! - Jeremy Toeman
@Jeremy - I agree. I totally saw that she was reading some kind of cue cards..although we'll know for sure when the photographs are published tomorrow (that's what the black window was behind the VP candidates). If you READ my comments you'll clearly see that I thought Biden won. - Jim McCusker
@Jim ah, there it is at the end - sorry about that! - Jeremy Toeman
What debate were you watching. She did better then most thought but she only answered one question, appeared nervous most of the time, spewed a large amount of BS, need I go on? - Mathew Ballard
There are no cue cards. - loren feldman
@Jeremy - Read again... I gave the win in my 2nd sentence. Sorry... I'm fired up... people just hear (and read) what they want to I guess.... - Jim McCusker
@Loren - I was watching the debate in HD... she was definitely reading SOMETHING. maybe notes.. the photographers behind them will show the truth tomorrow if she had cue cards. But you can not say for sure that she didn't have cue cards. It simply looked like she was reading from something. I personally never saw her writing anything down.. but I'll go back on my TiVo to verify. Just don't be too difinitive until you know for sure. - Jim McCusker
Thankfully not everyone in America is a puppet. Palin won the puppet vote, I think is what Loren Feldman is saying. - Robert Scoble
She doesn't need to read anything. She was coached for days. Anyone can memorize. Even someone who replaces you with ya'. - Stephan Miller
Well then it's fair. She was coached for days, and he's been coached by insider politics for decades. - Ed Shaz/NextInstinct
I don't know if I'd go with brilliant. How many times did she say 'nucular'? - Aaron Krug
@all: Read all your comments to Loren's assertion, and none of them even try to aggressively turn back the tide of the assertion, you had your chance, times up, so it looks like she won. who'dathunkit? thanks for voting. - Morgan Warstler
@Stephan - I have it Tivo'd and she definitely was reading from something for some of her responses. Eyes lowered, moving left to right...clearly reading something. - Jim McCusker
@Morgan America has made it's choice. It likes stupid and phrases like "dog gone it". Yes, I must move away from Idiocracy. Our education system shows it. Happy in stupidity. What bliss. - Stephan Miller
@Stephan, glad you finally found some happiness. - Morgan Warstler
“There are no cue cards at debates. She was looking right into your eyes and your not used to it. Not since JFK has their been since a compelling performance. She rocked.” - loren feldman
The polls I've seen so far say Biden won. So, Loren again proves he's an expert on puppet feelings, not those of real America. - Robert Scoble
rofl - Shawn Farner
Performance is right, why couldn't she answer the questions offered by the moderator but instead brought up her own topic. Shows to me she was only prepared to answer her bulleted list rather than engage in a debate, the reason for being there - Bryan
I'm thinking Biden walked off the stage and chugged bottle of scotch. He didn't even know what hit him. - Peter Simard
I'm going to assume that that was complete utter sarcasm. - Alex "Maverick" Scoble
puppet feelings? OMG that was funny! - Susan Beebe
Loren - Do I need to clip the video where she was clearly reading something for you to believe me? Seriously, try to take your partisan hat off and look at this objectively - Jim McCusker
Yes, she was reading something. Her own hand written notes that she took during the debate! They all have paper and pen in front of them. It's always been that way. - Dawn

Now Microsoft, these rock. Finally great marketing. - Robert Scoble
agreed - Shey
Saw it tonight. Good ad. Look, I do actual stuff on a PC. Apple made it seem like you couldn't open a program without Vista crashing. Ridiculous. - Eric @ CS Techcast
I like these news ads, but I also liked the Gates/Seinfeld ads. The I'm a PC ads really have a message though. - David Ward
Awesome awesome awesome ads. The mac ads won't be that funny anymore. I'm a mac and a pc :) - Metta (Kamath)
I think the ads were great! - Giancarlo Angulo
Last time I used Windows, that's how it felt. If I installed the wrong app, it would bork my registry and force me to reinstall the whole os. I hear XP is not as bad as that anymore, but first impressions can be scarring. - Victor Ganata
Now, aren't Macs really PC's since they're running Intel chips, just without Windows?!?! - David Ward
MJC mention. :) - Andrew Trinh
These ads are the natural follow on from the Seinfeld ads, so I wonder where they were heading. These new ads are a good start but I think they need to go further - we know lots of people use them, they are the number 1 operating system in the world. What we need to know is why we should switch/not switch. - CJPhoto
Well, uh, PC stands for personal computer. My Commodore 64 was considered a PC in its day and age, as was my school's Apple IIe. So yeah, I'd say a Mac was a PC as well, but not necessarily because it uses x86 tech. - Victor Ganata
an advert is not going to make decide to switch or not switch. waste of money microsoft. spend some of this wasted money on fixing more bugs. - Joe Breen
i can hear the meeting now ... hey, you know that dancing guy, that went around the world? let's do something like that, only we'll have a bunch of people talk about a pc, like, you know, show that everybody uses it. cool, eh? that should got the yokels talking. - Gregory Lent
...these are actually pretty good. - JA Castillo
I was in the minority appreciating the last set. But these are pretty compelling. - Chris Baskind
I liked the last ads and I think these are dreaful. What's more they feel so patronising, like some kind of Government ad that makes its obvious point in a silly, clunky 'inclusive' isn't this clever way - PaulJohnson
Absolutely genius. This is so true, and hits the point. - Ryo
Microsoft have done a really good job with these ads... trying to break away from "that" stereotype and not really going head on with the Apple ads - James Cooper
Brilliant stuff, totally accurate. - Iain Baker
Good commercial (finally) but, http://beta.friendfeed.com/e/8... - Mathew Ballard
Really? You like that? What about a better product? Something with WOW factor? - Christopher Welle
I'm a Mac fan, but this ad is actually pretty good. Saw it on TV last night. Was impressed. - Kate
2 more on the site now. And they're really good. - steplow is Steve
These are pretty good, I like them. Nice to see a graffiti artist in there :) - Thomas Hawk
I was sort of disappointed. It definitely has a clearer message, but I'm still waiting for them to show me: a) why I should love PCs or b) why I WILL love PCs ... not why I have to use PCs. - Tim Hoeck
1st I'm a 'both' but... Where is the one "I'm PC and I just use it for spreadsheets" or "I'm a PC and I use it to send emails to my grandkids" or "I'm a PC and I play videogames"... The Mac ads worked because they talked to how I use the computer, not how others do... Interesting start though :) - John Worthington
The show a little imagination. I liked Seinfeld including the extended version. Will we get the directors cut and unrated versions soon? - Michael VanDervort
I like the ads, but I'm still afraid of Vista. - Jill Howard Allen
These aren't great, but they are by far better than the other ads. - Bryan
Great Ad... except my Windows doesn't boot any faster or run any more reliably. This warm and fuzzy won't last. You know, You can put lipstick on a pig... - Phil Yanov
night and day. gates/seinfeld = disaster. "i'm a pc" = almost good, suprisingly - cjmart
Excellent. Making Mac look mean for saying the rest of us (most of the world) aren't cool. Good marketing can make anything cool. The election has shown us that. - Roadgoer
not a bad ad for a flexible "it's OK to be just OK" hardware platform, but what does it have to do with Microsoft? Nothing. Fail. The "I am GNU/Linux" comment makes a good point, too. - Kevin Williams
I'm a Mac, and I like these ads. - Veronica
I'm a Mutt, and I like these ads - Socom
The PC is a lie. - Victor Ganata
good point regarding the elections. seems everyone is concerned with how well an "entity" presents itself rather than what it actually does. i could give a shit less how awesome any mac or pc ad is or how well obama speaks. just let me compute and fix the economy. - Todd Kitta via twhirl
I refuse to accept the definition that a PC specifies only Windows/Intel machines. I can't believe Microsoft bought Apple's lie. - Victor Ganata
Really really good ads! - Tin Kos

Does not deter people throwing out your sandwich... - Ben Jackson via twhirl
And encourages people to puke on your sandwich. - Chester
I needs me a box of these! - BuBBy Oxide
That sandwich would most definitely be thrown away. - Kenya
To all of the nay sayers, I think most people *WOULD NOT TOUCH IT* so they couldn't throw it away or anything else. They would just leave it there for someone else to deal with. - Andrew Baron
@Andrew it's a possibility, but I toss stuff out in the office fridge because I don't want mold to somehow get involved with my food... - Ben Jackson via twhirl
It's the future! - Larry Hudson
@ben, you should be careful, you are the most likely to be exposed to unsuspecting growth, a total biohazard. Please leave that stuff alone and let someone else deal with it, you could be seriously injured. - Andrew Baron
Brilliant! - Mike Lewis
Actually, these bags make me never want to bag a lunch again. yuk! - Chris Conway
SUCH a good idea! - Geoff K

I did in California. I haven't here in Arizona yet. Maybe because of the concealed carry laws, or maybe just because I haven't found the need to as much yet. I should make up a handful and put them in my car though. I have been tempted a few times. - Jason Shultz via twhirl
