Yes she did. Is she a complete fucking retard? We knew she was stupid, but come on.
But remember that for the people she's targeting this is a positive thing.

Especially when all I've heard lately are McDouche ads insisting that Obama and his "liberal allies" still want more taxes on everything. Just the same old thing, they claim and that McDouche is the real choice for change.

Probably the current one. The latest rhetoric that I've heard is that the war is one and that if the Dems get control that they'll throw that victory away.

Ok, my computer TV is screwing up majorly, but was she reffering to McCain when she said he wanted a focused debate? Did she watch the Pres debate at all?

Aside from the fact that I'm glad he didn't hit her on "McCain knows how to win the war" (the media may no longer have POW stars in their eye but the hammer that fell on Clarke is proof enough that it isn't a winning argument no matter the truth) the whole exchange was just a very neat dichotomy between "I have a plan" and "name drop, buzzword drop, buzzword drop, name drop, rinse and repeat."

All that being said I think Biden is striking the tone he needs, answering directly and honestly, calling Palin out but not everytime, pivoting to McCain as a means of hitting her when a direct attack would look like overkill. A few more memoable lines fom him and a few more pauses from her and I will call it a 40-30-30 B/P/N and no movement in the polls.

She is indeed. And the debate runner is wisely choosing to move on.

Holy crap, she's promising to be Cheney MkII.

Way to answer that question Palin. Will Biden? I'm skeptical.

Biden sure is pushing this "alternative judgement" thing. It sure is a contrast to Palin's view which is basically "The President's Bitch".

Damnit he walked right into the counter-sexism charge and that could be a killer if taken the wrong way.

He recovered quickly. Not sure where the polls will put that one.
