Great job Governor! A couple of mistakes but not bad, not bad at all. Way to end it with my signature quote from Ronald Regan, Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. [Beer] She done good!

Only a couple of things bugged me. I was hoping that "nuke-u-ler" would go out with W. I also would like to also hear the word "also" a few times less, also.

Other than that, I thought she did an outstanding job. She's just a "real" person when compared to the political puppet that is Joe Biden.

The McCain folks need to just let Sarah be Sarah.

I thought the debate went well. Gov. Palin held her own against Joe Biden but she does tend to ramble on a bit when asked a pretty black and white question. Somtimes less is more. This debate was not a struggle for Sen. Biden. He had more specifics and for sure won hearts and minds when he talked about the death of his first wife and his daughter, and having to raise two sons on his own. Also, despite some crying from both sides, I thought the moderator was fair and even and kept things moving along.

I'm with Gman, although I think it was more like "nuke-e-ler".

Well nothing could have been as bad as Biden referring to them as "Bosniacs."

Did Biden actually say that judges should be able to adjust the PRINCIPLE owed on delinquent mortgages?

The Dems say Biden won because he was more "substantive" and "factual". Biden is so smooth with the BS that I also missed a number of his statements that were flat-out wrong. In watching the follow-up on Fox News, Karl Rove had at least ten of Biden's statements that were factually incorrect and he had the historical record to back it up. One of the worst was Biden mis-stating that Article I of the Constitution refers to the Executive branch. McCain also never voted for a tax increase on people with an income of $42K, never voted to withhold funding of the troops, etc.

Sarah did a great job...

And was it me, or did Biden say Iran was closer to Obama during the greater threat question?

I only caught about the first 15-20 of it, but was VERY impressed by Sarah! Her points were more towards, "we plan to do(*explaination*)..." than Biden who answered every question with, "Obama will change(with a circle answer that bring you back to the same or doesnt explain anything "changing")..."

BRAVO! This is definately putting the nail in the electoral coffin that is Obama/Biden for me! [Beer]

I think she did fine. She stated that she had only been at this 5 weeks (national stuff) and that her main expereince was running a town and then a state. I beleive some women are intimidated by her and then some are real admirers.
Joltin Joe kept grinning like a tree full of monkeys, and some wanted to know where he came up wih his figures..
He said prolly 20x's that McCain voted 20x's blah blah... I think he was debating Bush..

Who needs a 4/5 times loser for the #2 spot anyway.....

what we have is 2 old guys and 2 noobs,, so take the babe, and the old guy...
