I liked the fact that Biden took it to McCain and not Palin but
will that somehow be spun as the same thing as McCain not even looking at Obama. Biden had his mission and he stuck to it. This was about an McCain Presidency and not about Sarah Palin. I think Biden did exactly the best thing possible. Let Palin be Palin and go after the real target..

3. I think what Biden did was perfect.
He reacted to Palin, and he recognized that she was there, which McSame didn't do. But Biden took the issue to McSame, which tended to minimize Palin's part in this election.

She came across as a talking head, spouting out what she was told to say, what she had been rehearsing to say, and nothing more. The soccer mom thing didn't take, in my opinion. Palin came across as a robot, doing what she was told, with no original thoughts or ideas.

Biden, on the other hand, showed real emotion when he spoke of losing his wife and not being sure his child would survive. Palin, the soccer mom, ignored that very real emotion and went on with her talking points. Cold...very cold.

Do we want another inhumane administration? I don't think so.

And from what I've been hearing, it was Biden's show all the way last night. Palin didn't screw up, but she didn't make much progress, either.
