    Does everybody really think she is holding her own here?

    I know I'm partison...but this doesn't seem close to me. She just doesn't seem to be comanding enough.

    She dodges question after question.

    she's not holding her own IMO on substance.

    Easy now I'm trying help her out with a extra left hook here and there so that there is not a knockout to come. :)

    based on the low bar the is set for Palin, she's doing okay.


    AGAIN, playing the "oh I'm the Washington outsider" card. stop trying so hard to appeal to the common American. it's great, but not right NOW. we want to LEARN about you. don't try so hard.

    Not really. She's doing alright ... maybe because the bar was so low for her, I guess. But she's doing fine.

    Only a true partisan would say she sounds like a "bumbling moron."

    She has definitely gotten more comfortable as this went on. Her first few answers she looked petrified, and rambled on with repeated talking points about random subjects all together.

    Biden looks more comfortable up there than Palin does. He's also making her look like the bumbling moron that she truly is...especially on the foreign policy questions.

    "Bumbling Idiot" is pretty harsh.
    I don't think there are many people that would honestly consider a woman of her stature to be a bumbling idiot.

    I think she is trying to defend a position (the neo-con status quo) that is pretty untenable, but i don't think that makes her a bumbling idiot.

    It makes her a salesman on a hard sell.

    But maybe i'm just blinded by all that love in my eyes.

    Palin has the clear advantage.....in the size of her flag pin.
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    This will go down as a victory for Palin. She'll now again be sequestered..you won't hear from her again unless strictly controlled and it may be enough to get these hate, warmongering fks back in office. God help us.

    I will NEVER wear a flag pin, that's goes to the core of the bullshit that is our political system.

    the flag means nothing, the constitution means everything....now I may wear a constitution pin :D

    I agree in someway personalize the answer to questions from your own point of view as if you somehow became President. Slow down and make this debate your own Sarah Palin.

    BTW GIfill is a non factor tonight.
