Debates of all ilk

Palin did not suck. But she wasn't good, either. A CNN political commentator said something afterward that hit home for me. She talked about how in a 9/11 situation that she could not picture Palin making the decision to shoot down aircraft that flew in a restricted area while the President circled in Air Force One. I can't picture that either.

Biden was great. I found myself being impressed with him. There's a reason he's been in the Senate since he was 30. He sounded presidential to me, she did not.

Palin's cutesy sh!t is wearing thin on me. I'm also glad that Biden called her and McCain on all the 'Maverick' talk.

I even found myself teary-eyed when he talked about his son in the military. I loved that he pointed out that she didn't corner the market on family life.

I think tonight Palin erased her Couric interview image. But it made invisible Biden look downright awesome, imho.
