YES! Send me a free issue of Seed.
If I like what I see, I'll receive 5 more issues (6 in all) for just $14.95. That's 50% off the cover price! If I'm not completely satisfied, I'll simply write "cancel" on the invoice and owe nothing. The free issue is mine to keep.

It's a stark contrast. But why compare these two? Biden is on the ticket and Fred is not. Surely there was another speaker on the DNC side you could have compared Fred too besides Biden. It would make more sense to compare Biden to Palin. But of course you paired her up with Hillary. I think I agree with all your matches except this one.
BTW, I was gobsmacked when Fred said "However, in flight school in Pensacola, he did drive a Corvette and date a girl who worked in a bar as an exotic dancer under the name of Marie, the Flame of Florida." How is that relevant or appropriate? Of course very little of Fred's speech was relevant or appropriate.
