She wasn't holding her pen the whole time like Biden.
I thought they both did pretty well. Biden answered the questions, as expected; and Palin didn't (or rattled off a bunch of rehearsed lines), as expected.
There's one thing I'm not quite clear on, though, after seeing the debate tongight:
Is SP a maverick? I mean, when she's up there in Alaska (wink), is she a maverick?
And what about John McCain? Is HE a maverick? Even about I-RAK', is he a maverick?
Because as an independent voter, the most important quality, at least for me (wink), is that the next president and the next VP are mavericks!
And what about Biden and Obama? Biden didn't mention the word. That makes me think he's not one. Maybe I can't vote for him and Obama. The worst thing for this country, I mean, at this time, with the greed on Wall Street and all the oil that's not being drilled and the hockey moms (wink) who have to take their children to,well, even the doctor! Well, they need a maverick in the White House!

She said "darn" 16 times.
She said "nucular"
She threw in "heck" at least 5 times
She appealed to "Joe 6 pack".
She called Mckiernan: McClellan
She thinks there is a tribe called the "Talibani"
I've watched George Bush for 8 years. Why vote for a dumber, snarkier version in a skirt and lip gloss
