So tmost of the media calls it a draw or slight victory to Biden
Faux news is jacking off over how palin is the greatest human being in history.

So Im guessing Biden won, but there was no real bad moment for Palin?

2. Barbie Helps Herself, Not John McCain
Barbie probably saved her chance to be elected to the Senate someday, probably after Ted Stevens is convicted and leaves the Senate. But she didn't help McCain, since Joe Biden VERY wisely didn't take the bait, and focused his attacks on McCain instead of Barbie.

4. The whole "debate" was a bad moment for Palin
She wasnt answering the moderator's questions, just kept reciting phrases she'd been trained to repeat like a demented parrot.

5. Only FOX and Drudge call it for Palin, as they are the home of the GOP freepers.
Nearly everyone else has Biden winning it by 15% or more in the polling.

6. It's easy to sound good if
Edited on Fri Oct-03-08 12:02 AM by MrToby
you are reading prepared text. Her strategy was to ignore the question and give answers from the talking points index cards.

The abbreviated discussion time served her well because it prevented Joe from having the opportunity to draw her out.

Joe kicked ass.

Bidden debated and he effectively rebutted her on her on every point. Palin came to give a speech and she did.

Bidden answered the questions. Palin recited her prepared text regardless of the question.

Joe kept his cool and didn't come off as condescending. Palin read her speech and didn't come off as an airhead. (if you ignore her failure to match the answer to the question).

7. Biden kicked her Bushette hind end back to Alaska.
Biden could easily kick McCain back to Texas with Bush too.

11. It was Bidens to lose
And he was superb. I would have normally have favoured attack mode on that useless hooplehead Palin, and the media were just waiting for one slip from Biden to leap to Palin's defence. Biden however didn't even leave them a chink in his armour to aim at, he was a perfect gentleman and was passionate and strong.

Palin managed to not shit herself on live TV, is that a positive?

12. I did notice fluid running down her leg?
Edited on Fri Oct-03-08 12:05 AM by MrToby
She's not pregnant again is she? It's so hard to tell....

Or maybe she was just excited.
