Okay, folks. Let's keep an eye on this debate and see if Sarah can beat down hairplug.

No, he probably won’t, but, I think she needs to follow his lead. I don’t want her sticking her neck out, by herself and McCain leaving her dangling alone. McCain should have spoken of thee things a long time ago, or maybe not. Maybe he will wat until a week or so before the election so that they won’t fade too soon from the voters minds, though the time for Fannie and Freddie is now.

But that would contradict her assertion of McCain valuing her opinion and agreeing to disagree. The fact that Palin is for Carbon caps gives me pause. The entire Anthropological Climate Change (ACC) argument is totally discredited by scientists who are IN THE RELEVANT FIELDS OF STUDY. Only political hacks and global socialists believe the nonsense. The fact the Palin is pushing ACC makes me ill. It is a disingenuous argument coming from one we are supposed to believe in as being the real deal. Sorry, I like Sarah Palin... a lot, but I must point this rubbish out.

You know your gal is the winner when deranged lefties like Overbite and Maddow say, "she held her own."

Translation: "She kicked our asses tonight. Waaah!"

Sarah is to this campaign as Reggie Jackson was to the playoffs. Mrs. October is going to catapult McCain to victory.

And I love how she even comes across as nice when she critiques someone. Instead of feeling dejected a person would think she just served them a slice of warm apple pie with a scoop of ice cream.

Karl Rove says he was dead wrong on 10 of his statements.

Luntz said to watch the polls over the next few days, because this debate was a “game changer”, and said that her comment on the Wall Street crisis was a “9-11’ moment in the way that both conservatives and liberals’ responses spiked so favorably. He said he’d never seen anything like it.

The part they went nuts over was "personal responsibility."

That “proud of her country” moment was a clear shot at MamaBama

Ya' think?

I thought Biden was debating Palin for the job of EXXONMOBIL CEO, Biden spoke of them that I thought he’d do a COMMERICAL for them. :-)

I don't think he made up the name of Joey Stanko. I think Biden was reacting to Palin talking about talking to "real" Americans at hockey games and hearing what they have to say about the economy.

Biden had a "I have a bracelet, too" moment by trying to tell a story about talking to a "Joey" at the gas pump, but this "Joey" happens to be a major lobbyist lawyer that Biden probably deals with regularly, who specializes in global warming and attacking Big Oil.

I was worried about Palin in the first 20 minutes but she took over and dominated after that. She repeatedly cited Reagan, conservative principles, and tied BO to high taxes and surrender in WOT.

Yes. Gwen did well and it is so nice to see these last two debates two journalists that let the stars (the principles—the debaters) be the stars and they be the moderator as it stated in the title. How refreshing. Both moderators deserve credit for doing their job and doing it well.

CNN’s Focus Group of “Independents” is saying BIDEN clearly won, while Fox’s is going COMPLETELY the other way!

CNN has independents? No way.

(Okay, the helicopters are getting old and the neighborhood dogs are barking at them, except for mine who have crashed.)

My wife doesn’t follow politics much, but was solid for Palin when the debate was over and Palin, still miked, said “Where’s my children?” The whole debate was won for her with those three words.


I think that moment was just before that when she told Gwen Ifill: “Bless your heart”.

She comes across as genuine and believable.

Obama comes across as saying whatever’s expedient.
