So far, I think it's going to be a reverse effect of the first debate.  It might be a tie, but I think a tie is going to go to Palin.

Or maybe it has no impact at all. Just like all vice presidential debates.

Palin needs to ease of the molasses a bit, and Biden needs to pick it up, attack more, attack any.

Biden has no need to go on the offense.  Obama is winning by more than a little bit.

Don't forget that there are there people that were leaning McCain before, but moved into the undecided category when Palin was chosen.  Those people might go back into the McCain column if Palin seems credible.

Biden said "Sarah" and quickly corrected himself.

Gaffe, Palin says she's not one to attribute every activity of man to the climate.

Mis-statement != gaffe

Palin is winning.

My favorite part so far is when Biden said he disagreed with Obama, who sees the "glass half empty." HAAAAAAAAAAH!

did she say raping the continental shelf?

Is this related to the orgy of spending?

She seems fairly competent to me. I mean, I'm no longer as scared about her being VP. Even though she's not directly answering the questions that well, she is certainly doing better than the couric interview.

Nice.  I may just have to switch my allegiance.  I do like the way Republicans say that word.

She also doesn't have any follow-up questions here. These sorts of responses can be scripted.

She doesn't even stick to the questions, she just spouts out some sound-byte bullsh**t.

Why the heck are we switching from energy to LGBT issues? Seems a bit random.

The moderator jumped in to interrupt her on coal.

This is stupid.
