I'd say she was awful to really awful.

[Lautremont]

- She totally didn't answer questions about 40% of the time

- Lamely the other 60%

- Looked like she was going to faint about ten minutes in

- Spoonerized more than the good Reverend himself

- Repeated herself

- Over-folksied by at least 50%

- Got facts blatantly wrong

- Was manifestly and self-admittedly inexperienced

- Was mildly insulting

- I think the Michelle Obama dig might be unseemly even to Republicans (I'm giving them too much credit, I know)

- Quoted Reagan twice.

More things I could mention too, I'm sure. Biden wasn't perfect either - he committed some of these same crimes, though always to a much lesser degree if at all. But he won by a Secretariat's margin.

1. I didn't see all of it but...

..what I did see - Joe Biden chewed her up and spit her out on the floor.

NO CONTEST. Joe Biden out in front by a mile.

2. So is there any backlash to Palin being condescending??? Biden behaved.....

[TankLV]

3. She did exceedingly well...wasn't at all as bad as she has been...

she didn't melt down and have another "barbie" beauty queen moment, either...

sorry to burst your bubble...or crack your obama rose colored glasses...

on the other hand, Biden did exceedingly well...made mcINSANE look like an ass - which is exactly he should have done...

4. How can you do EXCEEDINGLY well

with that empty roll of fucking incoherent bullshit.

I assume you aren't allowed to have currency or a card in fear of buying ANYTHING.

What questions did she even give a remotely adequate answer to?

Was you bar at drooling and flinging poo? Anything above that was going to be at least solid?
