Hard to decide which one is more amateur, huh?
Not really.
Let’s do this methodically. Palin wins, 99 to 1.
That is, Palin remembers about 99% of her speech, with 1% scribbled on her hand.
Obama’s speeches are 100% teleprompter, which leaves 0% memorized. We’ll give him 1% as a handicap. Even if you give him a really large advantage like 10%, Palin still wins 99 to 10.
