What's Your Palin, Biden Vice Presidential Debate Headline?
The headline in Huntsville, Alabama's Huntsville Times says "Palin holds her ground against veteran Biden." The Washington Times reads "Biden, Palin battle of Iraq plans." And the Atlanta Constitution Journal proclaims "No knockouts, no major gaffes."
But, what's your headline for last night's Presidential debate?
Post it here under the comments section of this blog. Make it quick and snappy, no more than a sentence. Show everyone your whit and wisdom.
And if you need help coming up with something, check out the front pages from papers across the country, courtesy Newseum.
they all lie
Look at their voting records
Is this a joke?
How on earth can anyone consider that Sarah Palin is in any way equipped for the position of V.P.with the decisions that a V.P. is called upon to make? She has almost zero experience of anything outside Alaska and even less experience of the wider world (rather important, don't you think?). This is VERY, VERY scary and I think that the comments see supportive of her choice cannot truly have been a result of a deep consideration of the situation. It really shows a complete lack of competence on the part of McCaine to have put her in this situation.

Bullwinkle heartened that the woodsy soccer part-time mom will take a hunting trip with Mr. Chaney.That would be really good for Bullwinkle and what's left of the Grand Old Party
I cannot believe how anyone
I cannot believe how anyone could possibly think for one minute how Palin is qualified in any way for the position as V.P. She has no grasp whatsoever of anything that is essential knowledge for a V.P. and potentially a president. It is a scary thought that McCaine could make such a choice and without doubt casts doubt as to whether there would be any change to the incompetence seen over the past 8 years!
Without question it is time for a change and that certainly wouldn't be McCaine.
Why were people allowed to
Why were people allowed to post a long discussion, when a short headline was explicitly asked for? Unfair.
Palin & Biden
Although Palin may not have the experience of time that Joe Biden has, I was surprised that he did not try to bury Palin more than he did. His accumulation of facts of the 35 years could be used to bury his opponet if he had a male without pity. Facing a female and being polite as he was seems that Biden was a litttle off-balance most of the time. However if he had, it would appear using a bully pulpit, or trashing Palin. He could not appear doing that. Considering he was a senator since she was 10 years old, I liked how Palin conducted herself. I think she still did better than Biden, although he was OK too.

Gov. Sarah Palin, once
Gov. Sarah Palin, once again, confounded her critics with a strong performance. She did it at the Republican convention, and she did it again last night in her debate with Sen. Joe Biden. She performed with poise and charm. She effectively made the case that Senator Obama would be naïve in foreign policy and harmful to economic growth, and that Senator McCain would be a common-sense reformer. She handled questions about Iraq, Afghanistan, and Iran well. She connected domestic-policy arguments to the lives of average voters. Anyone who hoped — or feared — that she would fall flat on her face was proven wrong.
Biden, it must be said, also did well, and Palin was of course not flawless. She let a few hard shots from him, on health care for example, go unanswered. At times she slipped into platitude, as when she repeatedly referred to greed as the cause and regulation as the cure of the financial crisis. On the other hand, her account of the roots of the housing bubble were more sophisticated than Biden’s (she allowed that consumer behavior had played at least a supporting role in the drama).
The response from liberals/reporters on the airwaves after the debate was instructive. They criticized Palin for dodging some questions. Dodge she did, and good for her: Instead of taking Gwen Ifill’s loopy invitation for the candidates to dilate on when we should use nuclear weapons, she talked about rogue regimes and nuclear proliferation.
Paul Begala was among those who said that Palin had helped herself but not McCain. It’s fair enough to observe that the election is, of course, not going to turn on the vice-presidential debate. We expect that a lot of Democrats will be saying that now.
VP debate
For crying out loud!!!!!!!!!!!!
who cares if she mispronounced a word, or if she used folksy terms--------who cares if he sounds too rehearsed and scripted-------------------
The question is can either of them lead this country if a tragedy happens during their term and they HAVE to lead.
He probably has more experience, (after all he is older) but if that point doesn't work for the Presidential candidates, why should it count here???
If being a younger, more forward thinking person is a plus for Obama, why is it always seen on the news as a minus for her. Who cares how they stood, or what they chose to wear for the debate.
Let's try to be fair and impartial when making comparisons, irregardless of party sides.
And by the way, I have voted Democratic since i was old enough to vote, and i am in my 70's now.
Our country is in trouble on so many fronts, we don't have the time to waste on this foolishness, let's get down to business and pick the winning team based on which one can carry us back to being the world power that we once were-------------
Thanks for letting me have my say.

Sarah did great!!! You go girl!

headline
Mom takes on Government and doesn't back down.
response - mother holds her own
You jest. Palin, didn't have a clue! She wants more power over Congress??? What planet is she from? Give her a Game Show to host... Compare her to H. Clinton for a moment...dah.
I found her style, lack of knowledge, and disregard of questions directed at her offensive. I am truly concerned with the thought she could be president and decide if the USA goes to War. Frightening
I can think of a lot of MOMS qualified.

Remember?
Remember how the books balanced when Clinton left office and the disaster that we now have after 8 years of Bush. Remember that when you struggle to pay heating costs this winter and attempt to get a car loan. He wasn't perfect but in comparison to Bush or McCaine, it's a very easy decision - time for a change!
