Hey guys and gals -

Right after the debate, Joe is flying back to DE.
Beau is deploying the next day

Between you and me, I hope this comes up at the debate only because
mooseprincess has gotten alot of press about her son going over there.

Poor Joe. He must be under an unbelievable amount of stress. Not only does he have to
sit on eggshells during this debate, because godforbid he looks at her the wrong way, he must have such a heavy heart.

1. 'Heavy heart' about lots of things,

but somehow I don't think he's concerned about 'eggshells' during the debate. But maybe that's just me?

2. I was just watching -- again -- the video of Joe becoming emotional when

he talked about his boys getting the footballs when they were hospitalized. I was thinking that you never see warmth coming out of Palin. I would love (this sounds awful) but I would love the topic to come up and have him get a little choked up. People would love him.

I bet he'll be crying like a baby when he sees Beau off -- good Irishman that he is! :)

I already emailed Gwen Ilfil. Had the same thoughts as you about the debate ;)
