Biden had a great tear-up.  Brilliant.  His ratings shot through the roof on CNN.

Did he practice that?  If so, even more brilliant!

I think anyone who drank every time the word "maverick" was uttered is now dead of alcohol poisoning.

Palin has got to be thinking "Why does this debate involve all this stuff I don't know about".

Ok, Palin is going hella technical too.  God, these two don't like to make things simple and dumb.

Both candidates gave pretty bad answers to that last question.  Biden's was slightly worse, not in substance, but in relevance (seriously, Bork?)

Palin's started out obscuro, and ended just non-answering.

Palin is whining that Lyda Green won't let her have undisputed control of the Alaska state budget.

Of course Gwen Ifill gives the last word to Biden.

But, what else would one expect?

I can't understand what she is saying with her run on sentences that are all randomly connected with "also", "too", and "though".

Cry about it a little. Im sure millions of people aren't going to base their vote on who got the last say or not.
