Hi everyone --


We wanted to get your reaction to the Vice Presidential debate between Senator Joe Biden and Governor Sarah Palin. Did you watch? What did you think -- and who do you consider the winner? Were there any surprises? Tell us what you considered to be the highlights, the low points and everything in between.

You got it.


she was referring to the folks who drink six packs of beer while watching football or Nascar, believe that Saddam Hussein had WMD, believe global warming is a myth and count George Bush among their heroes. Nothing wrong with that: they are voters and a part of the American fabric.


One itti, bitty problem with appealing to Joe six pack; he prefers his woman in the kitchen, rather than in the white house.

Both did well, Palin seemed too coached on some issues, overall not awful.

I guess she was talking to herself then. Like I stated earlier, I took ASL for three years and we had to learn to lip read. I would read her lips and then she would vocalize what I had just read. Maybe she was going over the pre-rehearsed answers in her head?????

Joe Biden, He answered he questions and respected Sarah Palins inexperience, despite the many opportunities she gave him to draw attention to it.
