It's infuriating - when asked to respond about changing bankruptcy laws for mortgagees she goes on about opening up Alaska's energy resources

Democrats support same-sex benefits to couples (insurance, visitation, property etc)
SP: Some of my best friends are 'tolerant'!!
Neither D or R support same-sex marriage.

She's been using this technique for years.
And it has ALWAYS worked for her.

Biden is coherent, Palin rarely answers the question at hand and starts spouting off scripted counterpoints on how great McKain is and how inconsistent Obama is in their voting.
Almost every answer from Palin is you voted x times for this, Obama voted x times against that. Whereas McKain has consistently voted for Y.
Perhaps it's a cunning ploy - because Biden is consistently having to defend his and Obama's voting records - rather than actually discussing the topic at hand.
Neither are saying anything that jumps out and makes me say - I must vote for this candidate

Biden- facts based, shows understanding but very long-winded, bordering on dull
Palin- Very shallow, not showing great understanding, but more charismatic and can be vicious on the attack

A shout out in a VP Debate? I've seen it all now.

The down-homesy approach to her answering is getting quite nauseas though.

Is it wrong to exploit your 'special needs son' in order to become VP? Ethically iffy I would have thought...
She can't quite pull the exclusive 'son going to war' card out though, Biden's son is as well

though he just pulled out the 'my wife and son died' card

I find it interesting Palin keeps bringing up Bush's mistakes etc...Biden must be loving that because he just then needs to say,itll be different under obama,but Mckains policies are no different to Bush's
