Not only did Biden look upset afterward, he was poking Palin in the shoulder while he was talking to her. Geez.

Last audible words from Gwen Ifill (spoken to Joe Biden)

“You did great! You and Obama are doing great!”

Unbiased my @$$

Yep... it was a moment like that when Sadam Hussein was stroking the head of that young German boy during Gulf War I.

"I think Governor Palin did alright... but Biden walked all over her, and got away with too much BS without any rebuttal from Palin. "

Unfortunately, she only had 90 seconds to respond. In that time you want to get out the strong points of your team, let them know what the oppositions faults have been, and what you plan to do if elected. She could have gone off and pushed the blame game, but frankly, I doubt that would have gone over very well. And by the time you're done bad-mouthing the other party, you don't have any time left to talk about the points you want to get across to the American people.

That CNN leftist shill didn’t even bother to turn around to count the hands for Palin. Pitiful and absolutely obvious.

Am I getting this right?

Chris Matthews tingled with Obama.

He felt nothing with Sarah Palin.

Hmmm...

Not that there’s anything wrong with that...

I have a family full of Dems to argue with. If you think a couple of people here calling me ‘troll’ will make me run away. Stick around and get to know me better. I’m not going anywhere.

And, um, one of you witch hunters want to show my trollishness? Where is it? Where? You’re wrong. And I’m calling you on it.

I think Sarah could have come across stronger. Biden got things in and even interrupted her to make his points and she should have grabbed him by the nads and said, “Just a second, mister.”. But I suppose that I was looking for a different level of intensity than others on this thread.

Sara had a Huge amount of pressure on her tonight. She’s one of us....could you imagine having to do what she did. Yeah, she started out too fast and scripted but once she became herself and talked to the average American, she rocked.

Can you imagine what she will be like with some more time under her belt?

My prayer was answered.

—Our Father in Heaven, as we go into battle with the enemy, every one of us who loves this country, who believe our freedoms and our divinely inspired constitution must be protected at all cost, will approach you each in his own way, - our enemies too, according to their own understanding and will ask for protection and victory tonight. And so we bow before your infinite wisdom. We offer our prayers as best we can. Yes, and one more thing, dear Lord. About our enemies — ignore their heathen prayers and help Palin beat the snot out of Biden and have him running away with his tail between his legs. Amen.

Well as for me I think Biden did well. He did his job and attacked McCain not Palin. He did not go after her. It would only make him look small if he did. For this reason I think he did better. It was unlike Biden to look like a gentlemen and human being.

It wasn’t Palin’s fault that she couldn’t go after a her opponent. McCain has been such a liberal in the Senate that if she attacks Biden and Obama’s liberal stance she attacks McCain as well.

She was fighting a duel with both hands tied behind her back.

Sorry, I had to look it up as I had no idea, but Bosniac or Bosniak is a proper term for Muslim Bosnians.

Listen folks, if I turn the TV on in the morning and the consensus is that Palin won big tonight, then I’ll eat crow. I got no problem with admitting if I’m wrong. Let’s see how this plays out.


I love mushrooms, I hope you do too....Lutz just did a survey and says we’ll see a huge shift tomorrow.

Greta Van Sustern says she’s a midwesterner and likes her plain talk...

of course if you watch CNN tomorro...I’m sure they’ll be having a parade with Obamalamadingdong and Biden in a ticker tape open top limo ride with Gwen Ifill hobbling along behind on her broken leg trying to get her book autographed.
