After tonight's debate, I'm convinced that either ticket would be better than the current administration.
Palin's an inspirational speaker. She was able to change the topic when she couldn't answer questions. The moderator did allow Biden to respond when she went off track.
Biden came across as focused and knowledgeable. I thought he debunked McCain's "maverick" status very well, and also responded nicely to Palin's attempt to garner sympathy as a mom.
Both candidates had some trouble sticking to the facts.
Palin didn't crash and burn...suprising...and I give her credit for that. Kudos to Biden for keeping his foot out of his mouth..and giving a very good closing statement.
my thoughts have already been covered. Palin was much better than i expected, Biden was exactly as i expected. but her performance will overcome concerns about her poor interviews for those who want to like her.
however, i thought she was highly scripted and highly rehearsed. and i almost choked when she changed the subject on the moderator. which is why her other interviews were so bad: they actually made her answer the questions.
