Personally i think both candidates did great, but Biden definitely beat Palin. We all saw that she doesn’t really sound like a politician and that she’s not prepared enough for the vice pres. position. come on 5 weeks? Unlike Biden who has years of experience.

No one can say that Palin won this debate. Biden wiped the floor with her, simple as that. The only reason I can imagine anyone would say she did well is because she was finally able to string coherent thoughts together. You can tell that she trained really hard for this debate because she wasn’t the blubbering idiot we saw on the Couric interviews, BUT just because she was able to talk in complete sentences this time DOES NOT mean that she did well in this debate

I’m sorry, but it is amazing to me how this so called Journalism major (Palin) does not answer a single question, makes incoherent statements, and manages not to fall of the stage, and now she is branded as credible when we saw the obvious. She was horrible. Yes, it is an improvement from the Couric interviews because at least she didn’t tell the American people, I will get back to yah. Yes, I am a Republican. I am disappointed with the fact that my party has decided to sell out everything that it has ever stood for in order to support not a Mitt Romney, not a Mike Huckabee, not a Ron Paul, but Palin/McCain. McCain wasn’t fit in 2000, and he sure as heck isn’t fit in 2008. Are we this desperate to compete with liberals that we have decided that the true creed behind our party is for sale in order to beat them? Utah Conservative, I’m sorry, but liberals are celebrating because we have sold out. They get a victory every time we pretend that this ticket is credible.

I think believe that Sarah Palin did an awesome job last night! She knew what she was talking about and blew me away. Biden just did not really impress me at all. The only thing he did a lot was smile with this really white teeth and to me, seemed to contradict what he and Obama stand for on some issues. I think Palin knows more about the many issues going on in our country and what would be good solutions, and I think this makes up for her lack of experience. I wish people would not look at the color or sex of a person and vote for them based on those reasons. I’m McCain and Palin all the way!

I agree that Joe Biden was the clear winner of this debate. It was blatantly obvious that Sarah Palin was much rehearsed and her answers truly lacked any substance. Honestly, the winking, the continual use of the word “Maverick” and the comments about being a hockey mom don’t impress me. Give me some facts and show me that you deserve to be where you are. I just don’t feel secure voting her in as Vice President with her only credentials being Mayor of a town of 7,000 and Governor of one of our least populated states. I’ve worked for companies larger than the entire city of Wasilla and my home town has a larger population than all of Alaska. This woman is just not qualified and the fact that she is literally a heartbeat away from being President scares me. She’s nothing more than McCain’s ploy to pull the women voters in. I resent the fact that McCain feels we women don’t care about substance or intelligence and will vote for her strictly based on the fact that she’s a woman.

It’s funny how truely scared you liberals are of Sarah Palin.. So, like always, you resort to personal attacks…

I’m not a hughe McCain guy… Personally I supported Alan Keyes (Not Orin Hatch) in his run against McCain and Bush.. But i think Palin is a true statesperson. Her motives to go into politics were purely out of Public Virtue..

Ron Paul For President!!!

Palin did a horrible job. She gave absolutely no specifics at all, on any details. In the beginning she kept on bringing the conversation back to things that had nothing to do with what the moderator had asked, all she kept saying was obama would raise taxes. Biden also got several stabs in that she didn’t even attempt to refute. Although she did get better towards the debate, this really means nothing. I also was really annoyed by her constant use of “hockey moms”, and “maverick”, neither of which mean anything as McCain is hardly a maverick (look it up in the dicionary please) and Palin’s children were only in hockey for two weeks before quitting, so she can’t really keep that claim to fame. I really don’t have that much of a problem with McCain, but the idea that Palin could become president…. i’d rather not think of it

Who is and what has Barack Hussein Obama DONE?? NOTHING. The Press or Main TV Networks won’t Investigate and tell us the Truth about him.

Biden said he would be sitting by Barack Hussein Obama side throughout his Presidentcy.

You will then have 1 “OLD Lawyer telling 1 YOUNG Lawyer what to do.

That is ” The NEW CHANGE ” coming. Sounds like same BULL. just like the past 40 years.

What’s Better.. More Lawyers Controlling us.. or Regular People who have Common Sense and have cleaned up Corrupt Politicians in the Past….
We need MORE Smart Regular Citizens Running for Office, from Local Govt. to Washington….

Hope when Palin/McCain win, this will spur Everyone to take action against Corruption, at all levels…I am sure SICK of it.

I think that Palin did WAY better than I expected, HOWEVER, my expectations were lower than low….they didnt even exist. So, as a registered independent and a once confused voter, I certainly have jumped on the Obama/Biden (…or Obiden according to Palin) train.

I am not surprised by her excellent delivery and speech techniques considering she has had previous experience speaking in front of audiences as a sports reporter, beauty queen, etc…..I was however surprised by her lack of respect for the debating process. To outright acknowledge her intentional disregard of the questions asked of her was astonishing!!!! How dare Palin take it upon herself to bring every answer back to energy and Alaska!!!!! Wake up Palin, we dont all live in Alaska!!!!

If you can not clearly answer questions such as the cause of the state of our enviornment, our exit strategy for the war, our ever failing economy or even the names of 1 national publication or worst yet have the ability to name more than 1 supreme court case, how will you be able to answer tough questions when you take office???

How can I feel comfortable knowing this woman will be our president if the unthinkable were to happen to McCain? And speakin of McCain, how dare you pick Palin only to gain the votes of women? I am offended at the notion that as a woman, I would vote for an unexperienced and certainly unqualified woman just for the sake of having a woman. Palin is by no means the type of woman I want to go down in history as a pioneer for women in executive power!!!!

In conclusion, I would like to say God bless this election and the future of our country.

Dealing w/ the public for several years in sales and meeting every economic class of people from extreme upper class to the homeless. If you are a democrat and Bidon fumbled all over himself and admitted he didn’t have enough sense to pour piss out of a boot and didn’t know a damn thing about politics, you would still say he won the debte and vote for him b/c he’s a democrat. And I will say the same exact thing about if you were a republican and Palin admitted the same thing, republicans would say she won and vote b/c shes a republican. The difference is though that there are some VERY EXTREMELY COMMON SENSE issues in this country that the republican party, the conservatives see that is so elementary and gin clear, it makes you wonder how others can’t see the simple logic. After going door to door selling supplemental insurance for 14 years, I told my Dad that I was either born w/ an uncanny amount of common sense or the average person in this world was stupid. He assured me I had no more common sense than anyone else. If you think Obama knows what he’s doing as a president of the USA, then you fall in that rest of the world group. The only way he can address issues is when he has a script written for him. He don’t have a clue on his on. If it’s not written for him to rehearse, he couldn’t answer the question, What does the president of the United States of America do? It takes a repub. pres. 12 years to fix what a democ. pres screws up in 4 years.

Also,

Whats with the moderator, she is writing a book about Obama !!

She was pretty fair, except that she gave Biden the last word most of the time.

Still yet they should have chosen a non-biased person…oh, but wait, that would have been dificult to find in the main stream media.

Biden made so many factual mistakes, at least 10. He lied about all of the “votes” he claimed McCain made. Although, Palin should have caught them and called him on them.

Manhattaner…where do you think the world came from?

The fact that this woman could soon be one 72 year old heartbeat away from being President of the United States scares the living bejesus out of me….

Would somebody please teach Ms. Palin the correct pronunciation of the word “nuclear”? And that it would make her appear more intelligent if she did not drop the “g” at the end of words which end in “ing”?

Libs are so transparent.
Only one person talked about the future….Palin

You think the economy is a mess now, wait till obama raises taxes on business, not to mention doubling the cap gains. Taxes need to be left where they are at. There is more money coming in now than ever. Obama will need all of it for the extra trillion he is going to spend.

Use your head, there is something called the natural business curve, it is inevetable, NO political party can stop it, they can only make it worse.

And Obama’s plan will make it worse.

You people need to stop hating business. Again, use your head….where do you think jobs come from? Business is not evil, they create our jobs.

Obama may cut the middle class taxes, but it will not make a difference, you won’t have a job to pay them.

idiots
