"Conservatives must be breathing a little easier tonight because Sarah Palin passed a test," Donna Brazile said on ABC. "She did her homework. ... Overall, there were no moose in the headlight moments."

Funny, I heard a lot of pundits say it was a game changer and Luntz said it will definitely change the polls over the next few days.

We’ll see about that. This phony was a staunch Hillary supporter until the chosen one pulled ahead — then she jumped on the O bandwagon like everyone else.

It’s shameless propoganda under the ruse of journalism.

Immediately after the debate, a number of pundits predicted that this debate would be out of the news cycle in 24 hrs. It wasn't interesting enough. Just a VP debate, after all, these things never amount to much. We'll all just move along then, shall we?

Translation: Palin won, so let's push this down the memory hole.

Ratings for the VP debate were 33% higher than for the Presidential candidate debate. Which means one of two things, either Sarah Palin generates a helluva lot of buzz or Biden does.

Seems to be a no brainer. Palin will bring out voters, Biden will bring out bs.

Does this matter in the race for POTUS? Absolutely it does no matter what the idiot talking heads on the left or right declare from on high.

MSM translation: Had Sarah stumbled, it would have definitely put the last nail in the coffin for McCain, but since she won, there’s nothing to see here, folks.

I’m not buying the “polls” of “independent” voters who either voted on line or were handpicked by CNN or MSNBC.

Do we Bail them out when they Fail?

Donna don’t know moose. They are not deer in the headlights. They could care less about your puny car. They will charge you if they feel threatened, not flee. And against most (liberal) cars, they will win.

Not quite, you have to understand these things!

Biden win = knock out punch/definite "game changer".

Palin win = nothing to talk about. Met minimum expectations.

Yeah , Joe is the gift that will keep on giving for a month.

Ratings alot higher than Nobama's ratings in the debates.

" Biden: Number with regards to bankruptcy now, Gwen, What we should be doing now........and Barack and I support it--- we should allow bankruptcy courts to be able to re-adjust not just the the interest rate your paying on your mortgage to be able to stay in your home , but to be able to adjust your principal that you owe , the principal that you owe.

" Plus at least 14 mistatements

They’ll play it down, because when McCain/Palin win, it has to be because of race.

I hate to be the “thread police” but I thought we were restricted to only four words of an AP lead?

What? They couldn't get a hold of James Carville for an unbiased opinion?

Overall, there were no moose in the headlight moments

Cute, although anyone who knows anything about moose knows that if there is a moose in your headlights, the moose is more likely to survive the impact than you.

Brazile is a leftist flamethrower. Nothing she says has any value at all. She should keep her biased, liberal, mean-spirited mouth shut.
