He could be taking drugs to stay awake and drugs to sleep or whatever. He was definitely very Palinesque today. He got onto the Star of David and it really got surreal - he could not stop going round and round - repeating himself. Twice in his bizzaro rambling he said it was a sheriff's star, then he starting talking about his son and stars - stars, stars, stars - to me it sounded like speed, speed, speed. A crazy person on speed.

I remember when Bush was debating Gore (their last debate) and saliva was oozing in the corners of Bush's mouth the entire debate. Central nervous system drugs can cause this.

I felt that they were implying that something was up. He was even worse than usual.

Having worked with Adderall users in the past to get clean, he shows all the symptoms other than the weight loss.

he's just "trumped" up on "Trust-Fund Kid White Privilege"
